Wolfowitz' pet blog, IraqtheModel, shows sign of rift after Kurtz story
Edited on Mon Dec-20-04 12:16 PM by BurtWorm
Howard Kurtz seems to have neglected to read yesterday's blog at IraqtheModel, which he featured in his column today as a sign that things are going better than expected in Iraq:


http://iraqthemodel.blogspot.com/

This is the last time I write in this blog and I just want to say, goodbye. It's not an easy thing to do for me, but I know I should do it. I haven't told my brothers with my decision, as they are not here yet, but it won't change anything and I just can't keep doing this anymore.
My stand regarding America has never changed. I still love America and feel grateful to all those who helped us get our freedom and are still helping us establishing democracy in our country. But it's the act of some Americans that made me feel I'm on the wrong side here. I will expose these people in public very soon and I won't lack the mean to do this, but I won't do it here as this is not my blog.
At any rate, it's been a great experience and a pleasure to know all the regular readers of this blog, as I do feel I know you, and I owe you a lot.
Best wishes to all of you, those who supported us and those who criticized us as well.

Yours sincerely,
Ali.

1. This should get interesting
There are many right-wing bloggers who treat that blog as gospel.

2. I've asked Howie about this on his on-line discussion today
I gave him the whole quote. So far he hasn't responded.

4. Howie did not answer the question.
The posts at the blog are very torn up over Ali's defection. 600+.
