The latest talking point from the Bush misadministration: the upsurge of violence in Iraq is due to the terrists trying to influence the US midterm elections!
According to Maj. Gen. William Caldwell, it is "no coincidence" that the increase in killings is taking place in "the run up to the American midterm elections..."- m
[Preznit Character Counts] had a similar take, telling George Stephanopoulos: "There's certainly a stepped-up level of violence, and we're heading into an election... My gut tells me that they have all along been trying to inflict enough damage that we'd leave."
There you have it: Sunnis and Shiites are not killing each other over centuries-old religious conflicts; they're killing each other because they disagree about who should be Speaker of the House, Denny Hastert or Nancy Pelosi.
