Now if i were going to war, i dont think i'd let Iraq know that.

the military doesn't let the press know what they don't want the enemy to know.. and i'm sure there's alot of disinformation

It's kind of hard to disguise the deployment of reserves like that. You could pick someone off the streets and chances are they know someone who knows someone that is being deployed to the mid east.

If CNN can get that information... what makes you think Iraqi intelligence can't ?

On the other hand, maybe it's to throw them off

Nice, stuff going towards the middle east, but where? Perhaps fear is enough.

CNN IS stupid. but not because of this alone.

personally i'm sick of its bias on what it deems worthy of coverage. there are terror attacks in recent months that are linked to Islamist fundamentalists that were not covered. but two examples: the bombing of a McDonalds in Bombay, and the bombing of the Macedonian embassy in Karachi. Both were within the last 2 months but I had to hear about it from non-Americans. BBC does a much better job imho.

Or maybe it is more of, "ready or not, here we come."
