OK, someone's gotta talk about this, and no matter how much I've enjoyed Sites' blog, I guess it'll be me.

I actually watched a live report from Kevin Sites on CNN, maybe twenty four hours before his blog was suspended. Though I don't remember the exact wording, it was quite literally something along the lines of "Yeah, I'm sitting here with Kurds in Northern Iraq, I'm just with a couple of guys with small arms, nothing major, there's all these Iraqi troops just over the hill, but they don't seem to be doing anything save the occasional random firing of mortars and machine guns..."

Maybe it was a Psyop. Maybe it wasn't. But poof went the blog one day later.
