Morning funny…

Onto more serious fare - Bob Owens at Confederate Yankee fisks MSM propaganda once again: He Says, She Says: The Propaganda War Continues In Iraq. Excellent writing as always… Dare I say, ‘Actual Journalism?’

On the military side of things, The Strata-Sphere has this: Mahdi Horror Exposed. From AJ:
As I predicted the liberation of the Shiite areas of Iraq from the Mahdi thugs is exposing the atrocities these animals inflicted on their fellow Arab Muslims. The backlash to these horror stories will be large and targeted against those who gave these rapists and murderers political cover: the Sadrist block and al-Sadr himself. A second, larger Awakening is about to be unleashed in Iraq.
