Eclipsed from the headlines by the ongoing carnage, there is an active
civil resistance in Iraq that opposes the occupation, the torture regime
it protects, and the jihadi and Ba'athist 'resistance' alike.

Carla de Ponte can really talk. She has said that Ante Gotovina has been hiding anywhere from Italy, Ireland and even the Vatican City to Canada, just to name a few places. Now, I am all for the ICTY, but de Ponte is making a joke out of the Tribunal with her antics regarding Gotovina. She has no idea where Gotovina is. If British MI6 could not locate him in Croatia then how can she? If UN and EU peace keeping forces in Bosnia (Republika Srbska) could not locate the likes of Karadzic and Mladic, then the ICTY has little chance. Ever since her appointment, de Ponte has been nothing short of a failure. I'm sure you would agree with me that the ICTY needs to appoint someone who will make things happen, who will make progress in the name of justice and at the same time will not let his or her personal ambitions lead them astray.
The inconvenient facts and unanswered questions surrounding the attacks are legion, but the endemic sloppiness of the self-styled "researchers" is delegitimizing the entire project of critiquing the "official version." The ostentatiously named "Truth movement" is not clearing the air, but muddying the water.
