Bombing hospitals to show their solidarity with the people's struggle?

Yeah, maybe.. just maybe.. this thing is starting to turn.

Maybe we will be able to start a small drawdown shortly.

The locals have got to be getting sick of these freedom fighter insurgents blowing up civilians that are just minding their business.

That and Zarqawi's "simply ridickulooseness" statement about opposing any elections under any circumstances and his minions promising to "wash the streets of Baghdad with the voters' blood." That had to win him a bunch of support.

Sometimes you just never know who's going to help you the most.  ;)

Well, when everyone realizes those people are not "freedom fighters", "insurgents", "revolutionaries", or anything else except frustrated Hitler/Stalin wannabees, they'll stop being surprised at the fact that the low life SOB's have no one's best interests in mind.

Then, with a soundtrack of chanted verses from the Koran, more commands scroll across the screen. 'You have to kill in the name of Allah until you are killed,' viewers are told. 'Then you will win your place forever in Paradise. The whole Islamic world should rise up to fight all the sick unbelievers. The flag of Jihad will be forever held high.'
