WASHINGTON - The growing insurgency against U.S. forces in Iraq (news - web sites) is fed by nationalist feelings and widespread distrust of the United States, the private International Crisis Group said Wednesday.



Challenging the Bush administration, the crisis group said, "The insurgency is not confined to a finite number of fanatics isolated from the population and opposed to a democratic Iraq."


Iraqi elections set for Jan. 30 to pick a national assembly will change little unless they produce Iraqi institutions that can distance themselves from the United States, the group said in a report.


The group's recommendations include gradual U.S. political and military disengagement from Iraq and a clear Iraqi political disengagement from the United States.

Just what I thought. They don't hate us for our freedoms. They hate us because half our country supports the asshole living in the White House.

1. SO MANY think tanks and M/E experts and COMMON BLOODY SENSE
have told bush this same thing, including the US MILITARY COMMANDERS.

Will that make bush STOP repeating his totally bullshit "they hate freedom/democracy" crap?

Nope. There are still lots of stupid & easy-to-dupe rightwingnut rubes out there; that's who bush speaks to.

2. Truely amazing. This will get no play whatsoever, no doubt.
The oft-repeated lie that we see repeated here again by a Bushite gets the benifit of blind acceptance.
That which questions the lie is by definition propaganda. Bush is a religious man...a holy man...he may make mistakes and might over-promote some things and downplay others. But he would never lie.
This is the implicit belief throughout the media.
