that Tim Ireland runs (he was the main force behind "Backing Blair", but that was really election related).

Sample:

The secret to this denial is that they don't call it napalm any more. It's been rebranded for PR reasons. It's still fiery, indiscriminating death from above... it just has a different name is all.

So you'd best regard that headline above as US used I Can't Believe It's Not Napalm in Fallujah.
...
CNN - October 24, 2003: In Iraq, Corporal Casey Brommer remembers the trip along the Tigris River to Baghdad and coming under fire. "We called in with some artillery and some napalm. Some innocent women and child got hit. They came out. We met them on the road and they had little girls with noses blown off and husbands carrying their dead wives," Brommer recalls.

Hooray for Adam Ingram (contact details), who remained ignorant of this mainly because he stood with his back turned and his fingers in his ears chanting; "La-la-la-la-la-I-can't-hear-you-why-do-you-hate-America?"

Tim was instrumental in getting Blair to actually get a web method of sending his office comments. The bastards don't reply, of course, but it does at least allow you to let off steam. He's also persuaded several MPs to start blogs of their own.
