Eclipsed from the headlines by the ongoing carnage, there is an active
civil resistance in Iraq that opposes the occupation, the torture regime
it protects, and the jihadi and Ba'athist 'resistance' alike.

"Brian" posted two more responses, which we deleted. Our rules are modest, but he violated three of them. So we'll take this opportunity to outline once again our minimum standards for approving comments. The three standards "Brian" failed to meet are:
1. You can be as vituperative and condescending as you like (we enjoy rough-housing too), but refrain from overt ethnic slurs.
2. Be reasonably concise. If your post is three times as long as the one you are responding to, you are probably going ongepotchket. (Yes, ongepotchket. Look it up.)
3. Be reasonably literate. If you can't take the time to be grammatical, capitalize proper nouns and spell out simple words like "you," what you are writing probably isn't very worthwhile.
Have fun, folks.

Propaganda:
The inconvenient facts and unanswered questions surrounding the attacks are legion, but the endemic sloppiness of the self-styled "researchers" is delegitimizing the entire project of critiquing the "official version." The ostentatiously named "Truth movement" is not clearing the air, but muddying the water.

An Historical Guide Through the Balkan Labyrinth
The Balkan region is intensely multicultural - a point of crossroads and clash for some of the world's major religions, cultural spheres, and economic systems. While there have been vicious wars in Balkan history, these have taken place in the context of manipulation by imperial powers and the self-serving local leaders who cater to them.
