An alert on Fox News Channel claims that two Iraqi generals are suspected of complicity in an attack in Karbala, Iraq that recently killed five US troops.

"There are 2 senior Iraq generals that US officials say are now suspect of involvement in an attack against American forces in Karbala on Jan. 20th," a Fox News host reported on air. "A number of people were killed. These gunmen apparently stormed an Iraqi security dressed like American soldiers and driving SUVs. So again, US officials are saying that 2 senior are suspected of taking part in an insurgent attack that killed 5 American soldiers."

The fake US military convoy that kidnapped and killed 5 soldiers had previously been blamed on Iranian elements.

Originally, the US said the five soldiers had been killed during fighting, but the Associated Press revealed the US statement was a lie.

More details as it becomes available.

These lunatics must be stopped.

Now Bush can declare war on the new Iraqi government and on Iran.

*sigh*

"As they stand up we will stand down."

This would be funny if not for all the dead and wounded.

5 Americans were kidnapped, tortured, and shot in the Karbala
raid. Inside job .... no shit U.S. type cars, uniforms, badges, and
communications.

I`ll have to get a damn flip chart to keep track of all this. Iraqi Generals? Al Qaeda? Iranians? Insurgents? Assorted foreign fighters? Liberals Who Hate America? Geez.....

It's become such a tangled web I cannot keep up.

oops, already did that :p

That'll make everything all better!

One scenario to investigate: Was this an attempt at a Gulf of Tonkin incident, i.e. to manufacture one? Other scenarios are also worth investigating.

I was reading a DUH story yesterday on AP saying that..maybe...we didn't train them well...

"The only way to defend against terrorists is to go after the terrorists." - Donald Rumsfeld.

:shrug:

It sounds like the training of the Iraqi forces is going spendidly.... :eyes:

of Iran working for the CIA.
And find out what was really going on.
Behind some kind of fake company set up as a front.
We could call it... Brewster Jennings, or something.

Oops! Guess that didn't work out when they got outed by the Chief Executive and VP of the US!

Meanwhile, why do I have a funny funny feeling that Chalabi has something to do with some of/any of the ugliness that may or may not involve Iran??? :eyes:

I just know I can make this work.

If the insurgents include general rank Iraqi's...is there any realistic assessment that can conclude we can "win" in Iraq? Perhaps now we can better understand why Iraqi's aren't standing up. What possible motivation do they have in making our longterm occupation a success?

THEY weren't responsible??????

way to make the Iranians repsonsible, regardless.

cry at these lunatics. Bush is fugging mad.

Oh, wait. Didn't we already do that?

therefore the same in this administration's eyes. Cut them some slack for getting this wrong :eyes:

That's the third time the story's changed.

Next we'll find out it was a disgruntled postal worker.

no less.

my fave quote: It looked like a bomb to me.

now I'm confused

:D

how many Iraqis soldiers were killed, who they THINK killed american soldiers.I think they are throwing out anything that they think will stick. How can they tell who killed who. I saw a story last year about the Iraqis selling americans uniforms in there stores, then nothing else did they do anything about it... They went into some of the shops and showed this in the story about the uniforms they seem to think we forget about a lot of these things...

:think:

gets when dubya comes home with some woman's lipstick on his collar.

with friends like Jeff Gannon visiting the WH at all hours...I think she might have to question lash marks on his back instead...

I just can't take it anymore.

I wonder who would have an easy time getting all that stuff.......



Ahhhhh . . . would that be the USA ?

(sarcasm)

Can anyone explain why we have surplus sales when troops in the field go without equipment?

QUICK, invade Venezuela!!@!

can only mean one thing; Karl Rove is still digging his hole of bullshit.

Keep digging Karl, sooner or later you'll get to the bottom of it.

is the Shrub's desire....
