What is it with the Iraqis and their moustaches? Talk about Attack of the Clone.

When do you expect 'em to capture Uday and Qusay?

Looks like the military have adopted a new emblem:

I thought the guy was dead.

Nice resurrection, Ripley has nothing on him. now Muslims will flock to him believing he is Allah's chosen one coming back from the dead like that.

Interesting. I went to other news sources to confirm it. Sorry, but after the BBC's gaff on insisting to report the US forces were not in Baghdad (when we were all watching footage of them at the airport), and their subsequent chastising, I don't trust their news on Iraq. They're still one of the most reliable sources, it's just that with Iraq they are openly unabashedly and stubbornly anti-US and UK, and it jades their reporting.

[/QUOTE]And you got that gem of information from the National Review Online I'm guessing. Sorry TL, that's the World Service, a whole different part of the BBC.

(I'm suprised that you believed that about the World Service without corroboration from an unbiased source)

That's quite funny because I personally find the BBC to be blatently *pro* US/UK!
