US Vice-President Dick Cheney has said that insurgents in Iraq have increased their attacks in order to influence the upcoming US mid-term elections.
He blamed a recent rise in violence on al-Qaeda and others trying to "break the will of the American people".

"They're very sensitive to the fact that we've got an election scheduled," he said, claiming the militants monitor US public opinion via the internet.

I hope this pathetic piece of an attempt to sway the Americans into voting Reuplican is punished heavily at the polls.

Vote us or you with the terrorists. Dear me, he must have a low opinion of the American peoples intelligence.
