September 11: dust in the wind and mud in the water
Bush’s pet general makes his ‘surge progress’ report on the 10th, so all analysis is neatly counter-pointed by the anniversary of the attacks of September 11, 2001.
The reason for this should be obvious… even though the only connections between Iraq and 11/9 (please note correct, non-branded formatting of date) were created or fabricated by the Bush administration.
How many times will the many* victims of that terrorist attack be expected to roll over in their graves?
[*As expected, the actual death toll is now uncertain (1, 2, 3), but certain to rise. Asbestos is deadly... and not best dealt with by sweeping it under the rug.]

UPDATE – Some valuable clarity and context for you.
