Two of these statements were taken from Al Jazeera.
One was from USA Today.
Can you tell which is which without clicking the links?
A) It has become abundantly clear that the United States invaded Iraq for the wrong reasons. No link has been established between Saddam Hussein and the terrorists responsible for the Sept. 11 attacks. No weapons of mass destruction have been located inside Iraq.
B) More US soldiers have died in Iraq since George Bush declared an end to the war on 1 May 2003 prompting the question: Will Iraq turn into a new Vietnam eventually bringing the US to its senses … or perhaps to its knees?
C) US and British occupation of Iraq is regarded as the re-emergence of the old colonialist practices of the western empires in some quarters.
I win!
USA Today is much more reactionary.
Do we get points?
Perhaps USA To-day will have a nice pie chart or bar graph to analyse the situation.
MMM… Pie chart…
I got it wrong.
I guess that’s not surprising, they’re on the same side after all.
In all fairness, the USA today statement was published under the editorial section, which, of course, has all kinds of blathering idiots.
Nylecoj – um… ok, you get 1000 IMAO points.
Which are very much like the points on “Whose Line Is It, Anyway?”
James – although it WAS in the opinion section, I found it through Google News.
Which may or may not be a reflection on Google.
Virtual points! Cool
Frank, how many virtual IMAO points do we get for NOT writing “FIRST”?
I got it right, but only because of the language used. I just can’t see a towelhead using the term “abundantly”. the gist is the same though.

if you want a good reflection on google, type in “failure” for a search(without the
quotation marks).
if you want to see a good reflection on google the type failure into a search
yeah…failure on Google turned up this definition
failure- noun; idiot, waste, liberal, double post; see stupid, idiot, and college.
I can’t believe Al-Jazeera mentioned Vietnam like that. I thought that was the American press thing… interesting.
