Okay. The media has access to footage of al Qaeda
blowing up U.S. Marines, but they can't seem to get their hands on pictures of Al Gharab.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but this would appear to be ratcheting the American people up for a goal of some sort...possibly war on yet another country?

1. Imagine if some Pentagon staffer leaked the Abu Grahib photos
Oh then you'd see the White House take leaks seriously. They'd have that person "renditioned" away to some tinpot country within hours.

2. Iran. The intelligence was one letter off.

3. Every opportunity to milk
the horror that is happening to U.S. forces in Iraq right now is much needed to shore up the administration's current argument that we can't bring 'em home now--or soon.
Don't worry, we are planting our seeds for new warlets--and Coni's trip to Rumania shows that we plan to have air bases close to our strike targets.
