When is the war against al Qaeda going to begin? When is the electorate in the USA going to receive accurate information regarding the illegal war in Iraq. The link above is OUR military concentrating on some lame al Qaeda 'unit' in Iraq while Afghanistan slips through the fingers of the USA.
When is the USA going to come to grips with the real dangers of al Qaeda and realize their enemy STILL needs to be defeated. Bush is AGAIN diverting the 'real war' into a war in Iraq and THIS time it isn't Powell that is doing the diverting but the USA military itself !
A top US commander predicted Friday intensifying fighting and more casualties as US and Iraqi forces move into sanctuaries used by Al-Qaeda to mount major terror bombings in Baghdad.
"As we have surged, we find the enemy surging as well," said Major General Rick Lynch, who commands an area in central Iraq that wraps around southern Baghdad.
"We are taking the fight to the enemy to counter his capabilities, but over time, especially as we continue to put our forces in areas where they have never operated we can expect to take continued casualties," he said.
Thirteen US soldiers under Lynch's command were killed and 39 wounded last month, mainly as a result of roadside bombs, according to the general, who said the number of attacks in his area has increased.

Really?
Does Major General Rick Lynch ever stop to realize he is fighting the wrong war. Does he ever stop to realize there are people in Iraq capable of defending themselves and since their 'death sqauds' are being overrun they are joining stronger forces to oppose the USA military. Does he ever stop to realize when he 'surges' the 'surge' back is because he is in that country illegally? Nah. He only sees a purpose to killing. Right. Or. Wrong. Killing the enemy is all he understands. Amazing.
