It reminds me of the Bennett Brauer SNL bit Chris Farley used to do on the news segment.

I particularly like that a rising body count and more frequent attacks are signs the terrorists are desperate and loosing. Following that logic, I guess if they laid down their weapons and killed themsleves, they'd drive us right out and establish a terrorist theocracy.

Well, I think his point is that terrorists are becoming more desperate through their specific targets. By targeting a sacred Islamic site, they hoped to turn muslim against muslim. That does in fact seem pretty desperate for a bunch that claims to be working in the name of Allah and/or the Iraqi people.
