She also blamed the power outage on him last week, said that FirstEnergy made big contributions to the Republicans.
Only heard her report it once, however.

U.N. officials at the headquarters refused heavy security because the United Nations ``did not want a large American presence outside,'' said Salim Lone, the U.N. spokesman in Baghdad. AP today

US occupation of Iraq is bringing Saudis and other Islamonutters out of the surrounding swamps [Syria/Iran] It's one good way to kill mosquitos--swat them when they land on you.
A better way is to go into the swamp and spray it.

I agree with you, and I think, in conjunction w/ the Israeli homicide attack, public opinion is going to shift toward the 'screw the terrorists' side.
But, Raddatz has a nationwide TV audience, Steyn does not. Her little hit is going to have a larger effect and I predict the leftists will soon seize on her idea and repeat it -- giving it a much wider impact.
Of course, her charge has no merit. She might as well blame 9/11 on 'minorities worldwide feeling disaffected by the 2000 election.'
The terrorists were going to strike, and have been for months, whether Bush said 'bring it on' or not. But she leaves her audience with a much different opinion.

Therein is the problem....the typical ABC reporter may reach more people than Mark Steyn. But I thought it was interesting that last night, Britt Hume mentioned the "flypaper" strategy of attracting the Islamofascists to Iraq to take our our military, as opposed to having them concentrate on US soil. So, the theory is out there. And if this is indeed what the Administration's aim is, we'll be hearing more about it in the future to refute the babblings of ABC reporters. (One would hope.)

Good propaganda and good headline fodder both make for terrible policy. I hope that people will tune this ignorant blather out.

"Except for the recently built concrete wall, U.N. officials at the headquarters refused heavy security because the United Nations ``did not want a large American presence outside,'' said Salim Lone, the U.N. spokesman in Baghdad." UN Officials Deliberately REFUSED U.S. Security in Baghdad "did not want American presence"

"The people in the U.N. building are civilians; they do not belong to armed forces or any parties to the conflict," said Wilder Tayler, the legal adviser to Human Rights Watch. "Under the terms of international humanitarian law, there is a basic rule, the principle of distinction ... between civilians and combatants. When you target directly civilians, intentionally, that is a war crime."I don't remember this little puke chiming in when Israeli buses and buildings blow up.

From the article~~~
"But officials may now have to look at adding troops to the nearly 150,000 already there." (ABC News, Raddatz, 8/18/03) Why? Do UN personnel now want to be seen in the company of American soldiers?
To: Right_in_Virginia
UN personnel would be wise to be seen BEHIND American soldiers.

Well .. it's going to be short-lived because FOX is all over the place saying that WE offered the UN more security and THEY TURNED IT DOWN - saying they did not want a USA presence there. Now, Kofi Annan has come out saying that if the UN did that, it was the wrong decision.
Also .. Rush was saying the same thing today. The issue is dead and ABC is wasting their breath.
