Reuters in its wire story confirming Saddam's capture said that this
would be a great boost "for the beleaguered occuation forces."

Beleaguered?

How about that for revealing an agenda?


From yourdictionary.com:

2. To surround with troops; besiege.

1. Maybe they meant from the media, etc.
2. They got it backwards, as usual. Understand Saddam was "beleaguered" by
over 600 troops.
