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.

The MoveOn ad was a spectacularly bad move that does lead to the suspicion that Rove has a highly place mole in the organization. Whether you can make the case that the books are being cooked during the report (wouldn't that be a shock) ceases to be an issue when you hand your enemies the news cycle for the entire month. The play on words, no problem as a blog posting, nullifies your argument and then some in the New York Times.
Calling Petraeus a war criminal for lying to the US public doesn't make sense - or is it all about us, our brave soldiers and our blood and treasure, with the displaced and dead of Iraq bit players. Why cheapen the phrase 'war criminal'. It's like screaming 'fascist' at some working class cop who basically can't let you break a Starbucks window. There may be war crimes here, but be an adult. Lying to Senators isn't a 'war crime'. It may be a crime (unless you're Dr Rice), but it's not a war crime.
Getting ejected from the committee room serves no point except to paint anyone left of Hillary as a fringe adolescent. With one ad buy MoveOn has damaged the progressives more than the 9/11 truth clowns. Soros could do much better with his money, for instance here or here.

Propaganda:
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.

An Historical Guide Through the Balkan Labyrinth
The Balkan region is intensely multicultural - a point of crossroads and clash for some of the world's major religions, cultural spheres, and economic systems. While there have been vicious wars in Balkan history, these have taken place in the context of manipulation by imperial powers and the self-serving local leaders who cater to them.
