Notice the Pentagon's release of cool video of the attack, a la APOCALYPSE NOW except the choppers drop the troops off in the middle of some desert, not in a populated area. So it could be generic training footage they released.

The Swarmer raid was accompanied by a highly orchestrated and intense domestic propaganda blitz, with al the Bushies echoing the same message "we are winning and canot cut and run", plus also "if you are against Bush you are against the troops and for the terrorists".

Fox News exposed itself as an arm of the Bush rightwing as they put on four military experts to comment, all four of them Bushie rightwingers who 100% support the discredited neocon view of the world.

This was meant to get three things off the front pages, Dubai Ports, the question of impeachment/censure and the lowest poll ratings since Nixon during Watergate.

TLC,
You could tell the way the helicopter were setting troops down on wide open LZ's they weren't expecting much action. When I first saw it, I assumed it was a training exercise with the Iraqis.

Swarmer was a joke. Just some video for extreme right wing Faux News to replay over and over ...
