Hello profitok,

fact is none of us know who to believe or what self-interests are
being played out.  or if some of the struggle is disinfo generated by
centcom to mess with Saddam's head.  Afgan was a debacle one day and a
route two days later.  also, most oof the optimistic assessents came
from the media talking heads, not from the people actually doing the
war work.


Best regards,
 Jim Johnson                           mailto:jejohn@xxxxxxxxxxx
