BS: More lies and half-truths (Samarra)

First you hear that there are 500-1000 insurgents in Samarra. Then you hear that the U.S. claims victory because they killed 100 of them. Then you hear that the others vanished (ie: melted back into the general population). The new Iraqi minister of the interior says that no civilians were killed. Others say many women and children were killed and maimed.

Nobody knows who the enemy is and isn't. Innocent people are being slaughtered by U.S. troops. Thats the only truth I know.

With the kind of propaganda that floats through the national papers and over the internet these days you will probably never know the real truth!
Best wishes.

A helluva lot of "anti-iraqis" [the latest name for resistance fighters]are being killed. And a helluva lot of them are innocent children. I wonder who we must blame, now that Saddam is safely in jail?
