The MSM has been far more egregious than normal in misreporting these evnts. The SF Chronical reported a “shower of missiles” from the terrorists raining down onto the green Zone, with complete routing of the Iraqi forces, and then a cease fire called by Mookie. Utter nonsense, and completely irresponsibe reporting.
The fact is that Mookie issued the Hudna because his forces have had their asses kicked for over two weeks, and we said “no thanks” and kept attacking THEM. That's the way to win a war.
Excellent post but I thought I could make it a bit shorter as written from the view point of Fat Boy Sadr. "I am losing my ass. Can we have a cease fire? What do you mean no? I am losing my ass damn it! Please pick up the phone, we need to talk, please."
