James Mccarten of The Canadian Press has written a heart-warming story that provides a generous expectation of relief for a deprived Prime Minister.
His story, however, doesn’t quite jibe with the headline on it.
The headline says,
U.S. marines pouring into Kandahar give Canadians a badly needed lift
Mr. Mccarten’s lead paragraph, however says:
KANDAHAR, Afghanistan – They have been quietly infiltrating the coalition ranks at Kandahar Airfield for weeks, their tan camouflage uniforms hard to distinguish from those of their Canadian cousins, save for the distinctive peaked cap.
(The italics and underlining are mine).
So – have the Marines been "pouring in" or "quietly infiltrating"?
I can’t stomach further analysis of this report, so I’ll just give you the link.
