6. "Violent resistance to the American occupation of Iraq..."
What?! Not "renegade resistance to the coalition's liberation of Iraq and creation of a free democracy"? How did this one ever slip past the censors?

I just about gagged yesterday watching Rumsferatu's press briefing in which he kept droning on about how this is just a bunch of thugs and terrorists who hate freedom. Yeah, that's it Rummy, God knows everyone loves slavery and hates freedom, that's real plausible... :eyes:

Incidentally, have you ever noticed that, although we're supposedly just bystanders in a predominantly Iraqi effort to free themselves from tyranny, you never seem to hear any actual Iraqis on the news describing their joyous campaign to liberate themselves? Nor, for that matter, does one ever seem to hear interviews with any of the officials from the vast international coalition, of which the US is ostensibly but a minor part, discussing their efforts in Iraq. Odd, it always seems to be US military spokespeople telling us how happy the Iraqi people are, but you never hear a single Iraqi say that for themselves. Go figure, huh?
