It looks like the attack which killed 5 US soldiers last week did not come from Iranian agents, as President Bush and the FOX Noise Channel claim. The main suspects are on "our side" - 2 senior Generals in the Iraqi Army. The irony here is that we most likely trained some of those who are now killing our own troops.

Bush wants war with Iran so badly he can taste it, and it shows in the propaganda which he hopes will lead us into yet another war in the Middle East. Anybody noticing the parallels between the propaganda pushing us into a war with Iran and the propaganda which led us into Iraq? Deja vu all over again folks.

Article is here.

You may be jumping the gun a bit on the blaming of FNC. The story at your link leads off with the following:

Citing Pentagon officials, Fox News Channel is reporting that two Iraqi generals are suspected of complicity in a Jan. 20 attack in Karbala, Iraq that killed five US troops.

More than a week after their original report.

Then why did you not point that out in your initial post? Why, in your original post, did you slam FNC but totally disregard the fact that the rawstory article to which you linked lead off with attributing FNC with reporting the story? IIRC, CNN and other MSM outlets were reporting the same previous material that FNC reported vis-a-vis the suspected Iranian connection. Why do you single out FNC in this specific instance? Where is your criticism of CNN et al for their reportage of a suspected Iranian connection?

So who is biased here? You or FNC?
