Sam,

While it is a good trait to look on the sunny side of the street, it is equally a bad thing to attempt to spread disinformation.

By posting that POS, you are, in effect, lying to us. And you should not be too proud of that.

First of all, that silly syllabus of success first got spread around the Web last September. Why are you posting it 7 months later? Failure to tell us the truth about how dated this material is makes you look, at best, foolish, and at worst, a dirty propagandist.

I won't go through this disinfomation point by point, but it is completely made obsolete by the events of the past month in Iraq.

Shame on you for attempting such transparent lies here. You really need a much dumber thread for that trick to work. May I suggest the President George W. Bush thread? There are lots of naive people there who really want to believe that Bush isn't a total cock-up.

Both you and the criminal George Bush seem to share this malevolent viewpoint:

Mundus vult decipi, ergo decipiatur... : The World wants to be deceived, therefore deceive it.

Keep in mind, this thread is not the world. We are some of the world's watchmen.

>>>Former generals of Saddams regime reinstated to new US-trained army

By Patrick Cockburn in Baghdad 23 April 2004

Iraqi generals who fought for Saddam Hussein are being reinstated to strengthen the new US-trained Iraqi army half of whose soldiers mutinied or went home during fighting earlier this month.

More than half a dozen generals from the old Iraqi army, dissolved by the US-led Coalition last May, have already been given jobs say American officials according to the US press. Former members of the Baath party will also be employed in the government.<<<

So Saddam wasn't such a bad fellow after all!
