Easy money

Yesterday (#91005) the kid asserted that S.H. was toast and that we were fighting a spool of videotape based on arguments like this: For example, he praised his brave soldiers in Basra. Interestingly, the soldiers stationed there all surrendered immediately, from the commander on down. The commander had not surrendered. The soldiers still fought, still fight. It's candy from a baby, but an easy hundred bucks. Go for it! cordially, "Die Welt ist alles, was der Fall ist."

As a simple comment, how do you determine what is propaganda & what is probable ? You do give the appearance of someone who believes evry word you are told until it is proved wrong. There are people here who question what is being said & assign a probability to it. I would be thrilled for example if the Basra uprising were proven to be fact & happening but based on the way & circumstances it was reported & the clear need for admin to deflect growing concerns, I have assigned it to propganda until better evidence is presented. Please understand that most of us all want the same thing but there are some who want the result to be both honorable and true. Starting wars is dangerous, lying about why it was started & how it is going would be evil if proven to be the case & unfortunaeltly Rummy has been caught out a bit. I sure don't believe what the Iraqis say or convey but I do analyse it for any probability of being true/false just as I do our pronouncements. Right at the moment I find Rummy to be like 'hard-tack' to try & eat.
