Rumsfeld v Allawi

I'm sure that when Donald Rumsfeld wrote his latest rah rah piece for the Iraq war he didn't expect it to be buried on page B07, but that is how far he has sunk. (I couldn't even find it online without using their search engine)

This morning, former Iraqi intern Prime Minister Ayad Allawi told the BBC that Iraq is in the midst of a civil war. From the Houston Chronicle:

"It is unfortunate that we are in civil war. We are losing each day as an average 50 to 60 people throughout the country, if not more," Ayad Allawi told the British Broadcasting Corp. "If this is not civil war, then God knows what civil war is."

At least someone is telling the truth about Iraq.

Why is this a surprise to anyone ? This administration is full of lies, obfuscation, targeted inuendo, and a full complement of suites in La La land. The referrence to Nazism is apt, but points a finger in the wrong direction, as usual. Josef Goebbels, the Nazi propaganda Minister said ' Tell a lie often enough, loud enough, and it will be believed'. Donald Rumsfeld and 'Bagdad Bob' is there a difference ?
