Exactly....its like a football game...when you begin to wear the other team down late in the game and are playing on his side of the 50 yard line.

Why would they put up a sign like that?

It has to do with PR....see how the media is spinning this grab the terrorists knew the media would do it.

This is but a bump in the road.

Fighters loyal to militant leader Abu Musab Zarqawi asserted control over the key Iraqi border town of Qaim on Monday, killing U.S. collaborators and enforcing strict Islamic law, according to tribal members, officials, residents and others in the town and nearby villages.

Michael, don't your writers know that 'collaborator' is a curse used for locals who assist foreign conquest, NOT people in their own country supporting their OWN elected givernment against foreign terrorists?

Your writers -- and their editors -- need to have their PC's washed out with soap for this shameful insult to these murdered patriots.
