NOYB, every source I have come up with cite the numbers of foreign insurgents to be 10% or less of the insurgency. The number of foreign terrorists isn't what is being discussed here. We're talking about who is doing most of the killing. I repeated the opinion of the Bush administration, US military leaders, and Iraq's government that the majority of the indiscriminate bombings and killings over there are being conducted by terrorists...most of whom are foreign-born. |

I was so hoping Noyb would find some resources on his own that weren't connected to Presidummy. We're not arguing about how many members of the resistance movement are foreign born. We're arguing about *who* is doing most of the indiscriminate killing via IED attacks. |

Are they supporting the government of Iraq, Harold? Perhaps, they don't think the government in Iraq is valid. Think Vichy, John. |

I have read that most of the *suicide* bombings are foreign born, but I haven't read that most of the indiscriminate bombers are foreign. |

Would you like to hear Prime Minister al-Jafari's take on the question about who's doing the killing? - - - There's no reason to believe Bush, his administration, or anyone who reports to it or is beholden to it. So then: "Who would you consider a reputable source to substantiate my claim?" You puzzle it out, and come back when you have some legitimate data. In other words, "I know your claim is true, but I don't want to see the proof." -- John H MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Harry,
I know you didn't ask my opinion, but in my humble opinion you are incorrect in your assumption. "Harry Krause" wrote in message ...

And you think the situation in Iraq is improving? Absolutely. Ditto. And, anyone who would open their eyes to something other than NBC, CNN, et al, would also know so. That's great news, John. Seeing your news sources are so much better than ours, perhaps you wouldn't mind answering a few questions for the rest of us. What's the current status on electricity? Sewage? Water? What's the current unemployment rate in Iraq? What percentage of the schools are open? What about hospitals? Now that the situation is improving, I guess we can stop spending money with the Lincoln Group. http://www.miami.com/mld/miamiherald...n/13333175.htm Watch *all* the news and reach your own conclusions. -- John H What John is saying here is, he doesn't know and he doesn't care. -- You were right, it's all abut character. Impeach Bush Now. |
