The Daily Jot: THIS JUST IN! COULDN'T BE HER FAULT!

BULLY BOY PRESS & CEDRIC'S BIG MIX -- THE KOOL AID TABLE

PEOPLE ARE TALKING AND EVERYBODY IS NOTING THAT CRANKY CLINTON WAS UNHINGED AS SHE BROWBEAT HER CAMPAIGN STAFF, YELLED AT THEM AND HUMILIATED THEM.

REACHED FOR COMMENT, CRANKY TOLD THESE REPORTERS, "WELL I LOST. SOMEONE HAD TO BE TO BLAME AND IT COULDN'T BE ME. I AM WONDERFUL. I AM MARVELOUS. PEOPLE LOVE ME!!!!!"

CRANKY THEN BEGAN CACKLING AS SHE RAN AROUND THE ROOM FREQUENTLY RUNNING INTO WALLS.

FROM THE TCI WIRE:

Welcome to day 176 of The Mosul Slog.

How are things going?

Not very well.

AP's astroturf can be found all over the net, "ISIS now in control of just 7 per cent of country, says Iraq."

They count on people having lousy math skills.

Just 7 percent of Iraq?

Now, just 7 percent?

I'm confused, when did ISIS control 100%?

Or even 50%?

In June of 2014, it's moment of greatest success, it controlled less than a third of Iraq.

In May of last year, REUTERS reported it controlled 14% of Iraq.

Since that May 11, 2016 publication?

May 19th, 2016, Rutbah was wrestled out of ISIS control, June 26, 2016 Falluja is cleared of ISIS.

All that before the Mosul operation started.

Three months after it started, they were bragging that the eastern half of Mosul was liberated.

7% remains under the control of the Islamic State.

That's appalling.

That's not a testament to success.

The headline should be "ISIS STILL CONTROLS AT LEAST 7% OF IRAQ!"

That's appalling.

That's before you factor in that the Iraqi forces are aided by, among others, the US, the UK, Iran, Australia and Canada.

And 7% of Iraq is still under the control of ISIS?

And it's day 176 of The Mosul Slog?

Patrick Martin (WSWS) notes:

A report by the British monitoring group Airwars has found that the death toll from US air strikes in Iraq and Syria nearly quadrupled in the month of March as compared to the last full month before Donald Trump entered the White House. Reported civilian deaths jumped from 465 in December 2016 to 1,754 in March 2017, a rise of 277 percent.

The report was issued in the midst of the media hysteria over fabricated charges of nerve gas attacks by the Syrian regime of Bashar al-Assad, the pretext for last week’s missile strikes ordered by President Trump. It demonstrates that American bombing has killed far more innocent civilians in Iraq, including children, than reportedly died in last week’s alleged chemical attack in Syria. For that very reason, the study has gone virtually without mention in the American media.

A war on Iraq began with lies from the US government. The same thing is happening with Syria.
