And what do you think was in those trucks the Russian special forces helped load to send to Syria? And what was it that Sadaam used to kill Kurds? Sadaam also had ties to Al Qaeda, as we're learning more and more about as more documents get translated. <BR/>Say what you want about Fox News watchers, but they are way ahead of those who get their news from MoveOn.org and Kos, not to mention the NY Times.<BR/><BR/>Another anonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13054771.post-1158247180686906322006-09-14T11:19:00.000-04:002006-09-14T11:19:00.000-04:00I thought of the same thing when I read that artic...I thought of the same thing when I read that article on CNN (the parallel between the stingray murders and Iraq).

A large portion of the American people who don't keep up supported it because they can't tell the difference (or don't care to tell the difference) between the Arabs who attacked us and the Arabs who live in Iraq. Like the stingrays, see?<BR/><BR/>You may remember stories in the weeks and months following 9-11 of Americans attacking random Arab or non-Arab people with dark skin (like Sikhs) as a "response" to 9-11.
