Under the article ‘The UNITED STATES of MONSTERS: DEPLETED URANIUM” http://www.iraqwar.mirror-world.ru/article/71481 I made the following ‘URGENT UPDATE: Iran Revolutionary Guards chief vows to defeat U.S. in Iraq’, giving the newswire related there in full. To this (and my general productivity in the site iraq-war.ru) I got the following response from a hacker (on the site mentioned) calling himself Xuma:

“Information overflow. The problem of the internet is organizing and digesting the relevant stuff. If you have actually digested all the zillions of links you post here we'd like to see the result of your mental process. Xuma.”

As this has actually been my intention all along, and I’ve now digested “the zillions of wires”, I accept the ‘challenge’ by Xuma, and in what follows I will present the results. (Note, that in the article, §1 gives a ‘historical’ introduction (which you can pass at will), while the business, newswires on Iraq war are folded open to an analysis in §2. For the reasons of space, I limit myself to the immediate context of the U.S. defeat.
