I find it very intriguing that you would say that this discussion of Mugniyeh
"indicates some anti-Bush agenda."

Mugniyeh just hasn't gotten star status because, as far as I know, he hasn't been
as good a "self-promoter" as Osama.
If it wasn't for Osama's training/recruiting videos that provide lots of the
clips we see of hooded guys in pajamas doing calesthentics and running obstacle
courses...ABC/CBS/NBC/CNNetc. would be scrambling for more footage.

As for the guvmint trying to hide past support for some of these terrorists, I'd say the
executive branch (and lots of the legislative branch) just haven't gone out of their
way to tell the citizenry about it.

But, unless someone doesn't listen to talk radio or doesn't watch TV, the connection
between some terrorists and our guvmint would be hard to miss. It's a common topic of discussion
on talk radio out here in the Southern California area.

Part of the reason a lot of people don't know about this sort of thing is the result of
the intersection of the gubmint not wanting to tell all...and lots of fat, happy
citizens who would rather not know.

And I would add, in this particular time in our history, it's considered almost unpatriotic to mention these things. If you do, someone will tell you how disloyal you are.
