Powerline and Captain Ed have the story of new documents found basically saying that al-Qaeda realizes they are outmatched in all ways except the press.
From Powerline:
Frankly this news is over the top fantastico. Who gives a rats a** about the American press. As the Iraqi's stand up, we'll stand down. And we are. Sadly, the American press has made the process slower, leaving al-Qaeda with hope, but as we've known, and as the military people have been saying, we have been successful. The Iraqis have been successful.
Awesome!
From Powerline:
So, put it all together: al Qaeda in Iraq is failing. It has little military strength, and the Iraqi people "do not support its cause." It has succeeded in one arena only: the American media. Yet, despite the despair manifested by the authors of the captured documents, that one success may be all that al Qaeda needs. Because the perverse negativity of the American press is the only view that most Americans get of the conflict's progress. And, because of their shoddy coverage of the war, our reporters and editors provide the terrorists with their only gleam of hope.
