Exactly! The punk being an Iraqi with insurgency sympathies named Thaer Thabit al-Hadithi.
On November 20th of last year, he videotaped bodies at the local morgue, people wailing, and the homes of dead Iraqis in Haditha. He then spends four months, trying to find a media outlet who will buy his tale.
In the Time magazine story of March 19, al-Hadithi is falsely described as a "budding journalist student" with ties to Human Rights Watch. The Associated Press claimed that al-Hadithi is an "Iraq investigator". In truth, al-Hadithi is just a middle-aged Iraqi with a video camera who has played the American media (with help from Murtha) like a fiddle from hell.
Thank you. You're a friend with his head on straight!
Been atwork since 6AM.. Thanks for your best wishes toward my nephew. I am sure most of us wish the very best for them all. They are among our very best.
Yes, I had a wonderful Thanksgiving with our heroes. ;*)
Hope yours was blessed as well.

LOL! I see you have already started and got a great deal done! Hopefully, I will be able to catch up next week with everything.
Somehow I think you're still way ahead of me, Justa! Yes, Thanksgiving was a great day here at Villa Rover. And I'm so pleased to have a ping list again. Life is good. ;)
