#1 "cast fresh shadows over the US occupation"

What has this got to do with the subject of the article? Every seemingly negative event in Iraq is depicted as evidence of an imagined looming disaster. This meme is hammered into the public perception every minute of every day and it is not likely that it can be countered by facts. Only those people who don't let their imaginations and fears dominate them will have the presence of mind see through the BS. I hope there are enough of us to prevail.

#2 I must admit to being somewhat puzzled that someone is going to all that trouble to take incriminating photos. If you're doing stuff you don't want people to know about, you don't take pictures of it, because people are going to see it. Not a conspiracy theory, mind you, just something I find strange.

#3 "I am Americaâs best friend in Iraq; if the CPA finds it necessary to direct an armed attack against my home you can see the state of relations between the CPA and the Iraqi people," Chalabi said.

Just a weird coincidence, but didn't Nick Berg's moonbat father say that al Qaeda (or the Iraqis) lost their "best friend" when they beheaded his son?
