There is was on my satelite package right above headline news. Full time feed from germany of casualties being unloaded with banter in the back ground.
Now I know the terror alert level is

and that President Bushes unwavering belief in Iraqi democrocy is what will defeat the insurgency.

There was a bit of commical dismay at the way the insurgents disapeared from faluja and appeard in strength in Mosul.
Does Fox make its comentators look up words in the dictionary befor they broadcast...think they even looked up "insurgency"?

the Insurgents in Mosull are in now way anywheres near the strength they were in Falluja. It aint even close

the Falluja operation was probably the most advertised operation in military history.
Common sence would tell you that some would leave before hand and take up residence someplace else.
In fact I remember the very news source you refer to predicting it.
The Military knew it also.
They also predicted a rise in attacks leading up to the election.

So none of this is exactly shocking.

seriously don't feed him

If we hadn't let the civilians out of Fallujah there would have been a hell of a lot more civ. casualties than there were, and Pongo would be here blasting at the US for that instead of this mosul thing.

hmm.. I too am surprised since I recall watching fox during the faluja battle and hearing several of the talking heads at Fox all agreeing that a lot of the insurgents had probably allready moved before the fight but that it was still worth doing.   They seemed to have a decent grasp of the situation back then.

maybe they use the B team for canada?

not really.  If he was talking about fox news people that sentence would have been in the same paragraph.  In this case you have two different sentences not in the same paragraph so one who reads English would assume they were referring to two different subjects.

fox news for free could mean a multitude of things.  He alos meantions headline news in there as well.

also.....in the english language when we quote somone we put these things at the begining and end of the quote ""

so if I was told this:

There was a bit of commical dismay at the way the insurgents disapeared from faluja and appeard in strength in Mosul.

and then a new paragraph talking about fox news reporters I would summize that the writer is making a statement.

if I saw this:

"There was a bit of commical dismay at the way the insurgents disapeared from faluja and appeard in strength in Mosul. "

Someone pointed out his entire post was about Fox News, you replied asking where did it say Fox News, I replied that it was in the very heading of the thread you were replying to.

Is that simple enough?
