Iraq attacks display al Qaeda "hallmarks," State Dept. says
CBS News | August 11, 2013, 1:10 PM | Margaret Brennan

The Obama administration believes the bloody suicide attacks and car bombings in Baghdad that have killed dozens of Iraqis in recent days were likely carried out by al Qaeda in Iraq (AQI). On Saturday evening, the State Department announced that the attacks bear the hallmarks of AQI - led by Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, who is now based in Syria.


TOPICS: War on Terror
KEYWORDS: alqaedainiraq; globaljihad; iraq; muslimworld; ramadan
So AQ is "on the run" into Syria, and Hussein's puppeteers think he can use this as an excuse to invade Syria.

CBS, of course, is more than happy to help the cabal peddle this current line of BS.

Can you imagine the screaming headlines if this had happened during the Bush administration?

Were they because of a protest or were they because of guys out for a walk one night and decided they’d go kill some Iraqis, what difference – at this point, what difference does it make?
