I LOVE your posts, and I put the terrific pix from them and from all over the place at yourownmind.com.

There's a powerful message here -- the reality is pretty far from what's being reported.

Take a look for yourself, and pass the URL along to 5 or 10 people, telling them to do the same. Let's get the truth out there.

Funny. Just as I came to that troll's post, the Shi'ite cleric who had broken the news that these people were forced to run the checkpoint by the death squads was shown in a taped interview on FNC.

I wonder if the troll has even seen that?

I just got back from spending some time over at DU---I make myself read some of the insightful nuggets over there occasionally in order to provide myself some perspective---they are currently pontificating on the probability that the POW situation was a setup by the US military in order to make the Iraqis look bad.

Like I said---perspective.
