Josh Marshall bets Wolfowitless won't go back, too

Just checked in on Josh Marshall after posting that Hardnose Harry was involved in an attack and speculating he probably wouldn't be going back to Iraq for a third time.

But this attack comes on the heels of the downing of a Black Hawk helicopter in Tikrit on Saturday afternoon, just hours after Wolfowitz himself left the city by another helicopter.

This is speculation. Perhaps these are coincidences. But it's hard to avoid the thought that these were coordinated and targeted attacks, aimed at Wolfowitz.

In the eyes of the insurgents, the propaganda value of wounding or killing a senior administration official -- especially such a fervent supporter of the war -- would be inexpressibly high.

I didn't know about himself leaving in that helicopter before the other was downed. Very interesting.

I wonder how the soldiers like dying for this asswipe.
