Another search through different avenues has failed to turn up AP’s source for more than 60 reports of atrocities and murders:

The AP (non-)responds and another search comes up empty.

My comparison of this Hussein guy to Slats is that (keep the secret) Slats was a made-up character, and so is this Captain in the AP stories.

And one of the last Slats Grobnick quotes I can remember came shortly before the US went into Kuwait; "Who is this Sammy Hansen guy, and why are trying to make nice with him?"

I knew what you meant, but I wanted to take the opportunity to write a blurb about Royko, who I think was what Democratic voters used to be. Namely, on the side of those who were hard working and honest and who took personal responsibility for their actions (e.g. "Ask not what your country can do for you......"). Those types of Democrats probably still exist, but they sure as hell aren't calling the shots in that party. I hate to be so serious before Christmas, but I have no doubt in my mind that we are in a crucial period of history, and we will be tested as much or more than the World War II generation. Probably more. Aren't I a ball of fun?

No, you're right. And I think we're failing the test.

I have two compilations books of Royko's columns. While I don't agree with him on some things he was a colorful personality and also a fine writer.

AP's reporters are and have never been, as far as I know, embedded with our military units. These slugs sit around their hotel in the Green Zone and swap gossip and fabricate stories that AP duly "reports".
