1. True
2. First sentence true. Last sentence laughable and baseless.
3. 1st sentence true. As the article only mentioned Saddams atrocities one has to wonder if they are indeed spouting propaganda. If there truly is a cross section of Iraqi reporting being done I would certainly think they would be more concerned about the occupation today then Saddam from yesterday. After all the country has never been in worse shape and the largest refugee exodus in the world is coming from Iraq.
4. What indeed does that have to do with the price of tea in China? You mean Al Qaeda that did not even exist in Iraq before the invasion? You mean teh Al Qaeda that is not even a force in Iraq today compared to any of the other factions? Why mention Al qaeda when the occupation troops are killing more Iraqi's than all the other forces in Iraq combined?
I am astounded that you did not point out that the 2nd largest force in Iraq after the occupation armies are the mercenaries. So called "contractors". Not that any of that is relevant to the criticism of the effort as propaganda. But, then, neither was your 4th point either.
