Or if they are - and it's not working - why not do more in relation to Iran?

In due time. Right now, we have Iran surrounded on two sides with forward operating bases.

IMO....We're gonna aid and abet the large segment of Iranians that want the mullahs gone.

McVeigh was seen by numerous witnesses cruising around OKC in the weeks prior to the OKC bombing with persons who have been described as "former Iraqi Army soldiers."

McVeigh was seen eating at restaurants and driving around OKC with them.

Thanks for posting this great thread.

You know that our warriors are winning when the lunatic mediots around the world react in the manner they have for the past year.

Curious that the Army is allowing a Specialist to post a muli-page press release linked to the National Center for Public Policy Research. Also odd that it is filled with 'facts' regarding Iranian involvement which have no reference or verification. For example, how would a Specialist know that there were 400 phone or 2700 rooms rented out by Iran (especially when it seems the bulk of the fighters slept in the cemeteries). Also the exactness of monetary funds from Iran and so on are curious. I guess Iran sent this specialist a bank statement. Its also odd that if they had so much money from Iran that Sadrs men were robbing locals for food and shelter. Again, very odd this specialist is issuing press releases to political action groups. Trust but verify on this one.

You might want to pass this on to the "usual suspects."

The Army doesn't exercise that much control over what Specialists post.

Widespread coverage of Iranian involvement doesn't fit Uncle Teddy's template and must be suppressed.

[Ranger]

You've posted a propoganda piece evidently ghost written by a political action committee. It undermines otherwise valid accounts of the situation.

[BagCamAddict]

Bump.

Did you come up with that all by yourself or is that a talking point from somebody in Marty Meehan's office?

We also faced Chechen snipers in Sadr's forces who were being paid anywhere from $500 to $10,000, depending on differing accounts, for each American soldier they hit. One sniper hit five soldiers in less then a minute-and-a-half, killing one with a shot in the neck. These mercenaries were sending this money back to Al-Qaeda-allied guerrillas in Chechnya to fight the Russians.

Courtesy phone for President Putin.

Contrary to the fudging news, Karbala, Najaf and Kufa have all been abandoned by the Mahdi Army. The local people turned on them, sometimes violently. Today local Iraqi forces secure those cities while the U.S. military is present to support them.

This is really really a wonderful read, and I especially liked this part. Thank you for posting this. God Bless our soldiers and keep them safe!!!

I thought of one of your recent posts, about the 40 countries, when I read this thread.

I cannot discount your obvious expertise in propaganda, seeing as you have had so much hands on practical experience since you were recruited by Uncle Teddy at Arlington while Taps still sounded over a brave man's grave.

What, specifically, makes SPC Roche a propagandist?
