Hey Folks -

Over the weekend insurgent attacks destroyed 160 US and NATO vehicles, mainly Humvees, bound for military use in Afghanistan. This is a major attack on munitions supplies, possibly signalling a very serious inroad by the Taliban and other resistance in Afghanistan (and now, Pakistan, where the attacks took place) on the military supply chain for the West.

Remniscent of the refusal of our government to allow pictures of flag-draped returning coffins, see for yourself the difference between the photo on CNN depicting this military strike against the US and NATO:

with Canada's CBC photo:http://www.cbc. ca/world/ story/2008/ 12/07/pakistan. html

So, are they covering the same war?
