#1 Wow--it's great to read that enough good and useful information survived the bombing.

Zarqawi dead... papers and hard-drives salvagable... I'd call that a win-win situation!

#2 May also lead to Binnie. They'd been arguing a lot in recent months. That would be so ironic - and really piss of Binnie. An ideal way to be captured - oh the Humiliation.

#3 So they are rolling up jihadis like a carpet, eh? But Iraq is *still* a quagmire, right? So many people would be sooo disappointed if it wasn't.

It seems to me that people who don't understand or agree with the war will be calling it a quagmire and making other references to Vietnam until we get out or Iraq. Anything to accomplish their goal. Too bad they don't really have a goal or plan themselves. Just bi+ching.

I don't know how, but most of my friends seem to be strongly against the war. They are always aware of unrelated historical events and weird ideas that seem to be the product of commiseration about speculation. I asked some of them "Do you read the blogs?" Of course the answer is always "Yes".

I guess I have to start asking them which blogs they read . . . . :-)
