Eller:

"Sat Oct 1. Bush said more than 100 Iraqi battalions are operating
throughout the country. "Our commanders report that the Iraqi forces are
serving with increasing effectiveness," he told radio listeners. The sunny
presentation of the situation in Iraq is part of a renewed push by the
administration to win support for the war effort from an increasingly
reluctant American public. It conflicts with the news from Iraq and some
assessments from top commanders."

Det rosenrøde billede krakelerer. Igen idag kan man læse om "U.S. aircraft
firing missiles struck houses and cars"
