Finally, A Good Use For PowerPoint

Thanks to Dean's World, we can link to a PowerPoint deck by soldiers in Fallouja - outlining what they found and faced there (some of it not for the squeamish).

Talk about an example of citizen's media...let's make sure to pass this around widely.

Nice bit of propaganda. Notice the line Who: Iraqi Security Forces suppported by the Multi-National Forces. Really now.

The primary people entering the mosques were Iraqi personnel. It is important to ensure that fact is well known, hence why it is spelled out multiple times in the brief. Otherwise the insurgents propaganda machine would attempt to recruit other dedicated, but misguided Iraqi's who believed the U.S. Forces were defiling their mosques and their belief system.

Here are some quick tips for adding simple Textile formatting to your comments, though you can also use proper HTML tags:

*This* puts text in bold.

_This_ puts text in italics.

bq. This "bq." at the beginning of a paragraph, flush with the left hand side and with a space after it, is the code to indent one paragraph of text as a block quote.

To add a live URL, "Text to display":http://windsofchange.net/ (no spaces between) will show up as Text to display. Always use this for links - otherwise you will screw up the columns on our main blog page.

Finally, note that a constant onslaught of Trackback spams from auto-generated blogspot blogs has forced Winds to ban the blogspot.com domain from use in comments or trackbacks. If you host on blogspot, consider moving; otherwise, the complaints need to be directed at Google not us.
