WASHINGTON (AP) - The U.S. military is mounting a counteroffensive in a war of words with Iraq's insurgents, firing off accusations of child murder, kidnapping, torture, brainwashing and plans to use chemical weapons

I wonder how well the “insurgency” will take this kind of PR attack? They have been doing it for some time, but we have a much broader media impact. Should be interesting to see how Iraqis and others feel when they start hearing that the insurgents “[were] targeting civilians, brutally murdering them, torturing them, but they were also kidnapping the youth of the city and brainwashing them and trying to turn them into hate-filled murderers,

I’m sure the “world press” will condemn us for it though as more “brutality”.
