[Cyber Liberty]

Oh well, what are ya gonna do when they laugh at your fair warnings.

Laugh it up, guys.

[Freedom'sWorthIt]

Again - you aid and abet the aiders and abettors. Not that you are part of the enemy. Who would think it. CIA is going to tell what their strategies are? Only Hitlery's hidden STalinists would do such.

[smith288]

Is this the Enquirer?

[longtermmemmory]

The CIA and the Military need to learn, the moslem's use surrender talks as a trick to buy time and gain information. They never had any intention of surrendering.

Time to start carpet bombing.

[TruthShallSetYouFree]

He and his colleagues "laugh and hang up" on Iraqi opposition leaders when they made the offers, he said.

Ha, ha, ha, who's got the last laugh now? You didn't like our generous offer, so die, like the rats you are!

[OldFriend]

Who wrote this Peter Arnett?

[guitfiddlist]

Good. Wipe'em out. I never did like the idea of them getting away with all their murderous acts, while their conscripts died for their sins. They will find that they have underestimated OUR hatred of THEM in particular.

May the aim of our undercover SOF be true....

[finnman69]

So the Iraqi generals turn down offers of women, liquor, cash, protection and defection? Then tough crap for them. They are dead men.

[Illbay]

ANANOVA, eh?

Last week, they reported that the U.S. was going to "pull back" because of the war plan's "failure."

[Poohbah]

The CIA has stopped trying to persuade Iraqi generals and political leaders to defect after underestimating their "hatred" of America.

Guess again, guys: it clearly said "Offer expires 3/31/03, void where taxed or prohbited."

[Carry_Okie]

One has to try it, but it went on for way too long.

[Publius6961]

"These guys are driven by a hatred of the US that we may have underestimated."

I had this figured out a year ago.
And I will repeat the same about the general population; not 5%... not 10%... at a minimum, 50%.

This gives a whole new meaning to "non-combatants" and "civilians".

I wonder how long it will take for the "experts" to figure this out?

[wastoute]

Too late, anyway. The offer expired when our first POWs were executed.

[RetiredArmy]

Let's see how they laugh and hang up when the body bag is zipped up over their stinking faces!

[tiki]

Oh well, they gave them a chance. Now they'll be killed in battle or tried as war criminals.

[Billthedrill]

"Achmed, we'll do a deal - you surrender and Lance Corporal Schmedlap won't perform an intrarectal tonsil check with a size 13D combat boot..."

[FreeReign]

"We misjudged their tenacity," an American intelligence official has told USA Today. "These guys are driven by a hatred of the US that we may have underestimated."

This sounds like propaganda to me.

Most of Gannett's newpapers have an anti-war bias and these quotes from unnamed sources are most likely not an accurate accessment of what the CIA thinks.

Who else but a traitor would leak out such classified information?

[APBaer]

They probably didn't trust the promises of the CIA, and I sure as hell wouldn't.

In the 1990's the CIA hired a guy as a spy, and he undertook and completed his dangerous mission.

When he asked to be paid the CIA said "Sue us".

He did and the CIA then had the US District Court throw out the suit, citing an ancient case from the 1700's that a court could not weigh the merits of a suit by a spy hired by the US.

Perhaps the word got around-
as it appears the generals didn't think very much of the "Full faith and credit of the United States"

[Grampa Dave]

Al_Schaf just loves these great posts! Did you hear about the great Stand Down?

[Beck_isright]

You know, we have another offer coming to them soon that they can not refuse; and a .223 at 20 ft will end the negotiations quickly.
