Defending Terrorists

Hat Tip to Atrios.

U.S. military: Iraqi lawmaker is U.S. Embassy bomber
BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) -- A man sentenced to death in Kuwait for the 1983 bombings of the U.S. and French embassies now sits in Iraq's parliament as a member of Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki's ruling coalition, according to U.S. military intelligence.

U.S. military intelligence in Iraq has approached al-Maliki's government with the allegations against Jamal Jafaar Mohammed, whom it says assists Iranian special forces in Iraq as "a conduit for weapons and political influence."


So now we're in Iraq, defending terrorists with diplomatic immunity that are working behind the scenes to kill us? While we defend them, they shoot us in the back?

We've been winning in Iraq for years now. When will 'winning' begin to look like a situation that is improving? Why does winning look like deteriation and defeat?

How many more second chances does Bush need to finally 'win'? Oh, yeah, he says we'll win two years after he leaves the White House. Until the, we'll keep winning by losing ground.

Hey weaseldog,

I wandered over from CFN.

Glad you highlighted this. In the same vein, BushCo is now accusing Iran of aiding the Shiites by giving them explosives. But wait: isn't Maliki Shia? Isn't he our friend? I thought we were fighting a Sunni insurgency? Are we now fighting...... everyone?

When BushCo took over, I thought that part of the appeal was that, although they were obvious assholes, they at least By God Got Things Done. But the incompetence is just staggering.

Anyway.....nice place ya got here.
