...labyrinth of medieval alleyways laced with booby traps and roadside bombs. Two weeks after the start of the offensive, the military claimed more than 200 insurgents killed. But field commanders and top intelligence officers acknowledge that the U.S. is no closer to subduing the insurgents and the threat they pose to Iraq's stability. Although dozens of al-Zarqawi's fighters may have died in Tall 'Afar, the U.S. and Iraqi forces were unable to prevent others from getting away.

...even pose the question of whether Rove will pay the price for his role in the Plame debacle? Rove is a political strategist who knows precisely what to say?or not to say?to keep himself out of hot water. He knew exactly what he was doing with his campaign of innuendo and rumor.
