April 7th, 2006 at 8:17 amSeriously though, how many years is this going to go on for?
April 7th, 2006 at 8:22 amWhy do those darn Iraqis keep having all that bad news coming from over there? Don’t they see all the good stuff we’re doing?
April 7th, 2006 at 8:36 amDamn we Better send in the Backups, you know that Courageous President And his Motley Crue of Chicken Hawks, We may even have to Send in the Dreaded Neo-Cons. I bet the Iraqis Would turn tail and run if those BIG BAD congressman showed up with the President and Vice President leading the Pack. Condi Would also be right their beside the troops because as you Know, she said “Somone HAS got to do it!”…..Pat Roberston, Falwell, North, Powell would be there as well. Bush Sr too.
I say Arm the Pro-War Voices, the Standard Weekly. The AEI, The AIPAC, the PNAC, Think-Tanks, All the Pro-War Pundits, Create a Big Unit. Kinda Like MASH. This will be called WHIG though and will be foot soldiers, their motto will be “Bring it on” and it should be lead By Bush Cheney Condi Rummy and Rush.
Now take all these chickesheets and put them on the front line and you would have peace within a short period of time, because the “Hawks” would all go AWOL.
April 7th, 2006 at 8:42 am“The Jews of our times fall into two main divisions: Sephardim and Ashkenazim. The Sephardim are descendants of the Jews who since antiquity had lived in Spain (in Hebrew Sepharad) until they were expelled at the end of the fifteenth century and settled in the countries bordering the Mediterranean, the Balkans, and to a lesser extent in Western Europe. They spoke a Spanish-Hebrew dialect, Ladino, and preserved their own traditions and religious rites. In the 1960s, the number of Sephardim was estimated at 500000.
The Ashkenazim, at the same period, numbered about eleven million. Thus, in common parlance, Jew is practically synonymous with Ashkenazi Jew.”
“The story of the Khazar Empire, as it slowly emerges from the past, begins to look like the most cruel hoax which history has ever perpetrated.”

The Grand Deception of the “Evangelicals” The Cannon Fodder of Empires!
Onward Christian Warriors, maybe Bush will let you have some of the WAR Booty. NOT.
April 7th, 2006 at 8:55 amI think we will recognize the civil war, when the Shiites wear blue jackets and the Sunnis wear gray.
April 7th, 2006 at 9:34 amC’mon. mosque-bombing is just another example of democracy in action. Them Iraqis is just really exuberant about their new-found freedom what we brought ‘em.
April 7th, 2006 at 9:41 amunbelievable
“What are you going to do today?”
“I am going to go to a mosque, blow myself up, and kill forty people.”
“Well, good luck to ya!”
The sooner the Republicans are gone forever, the better.
This stuff has become so preposterous, it’s ridiculous.
April 7th, 2006 at 10:45 amForty more to go toward BushCo.”credit”.Nice harvest Chimp.
April 7th, 2006 at 10:45 amJuan Cole’s site has a link to ME news service that is saying at least 78 were killed. Unfortunately, I don’t read Arabic, so I’m relying on his translation.
April 7th, 2006 at 11:47 amHey where are the trolls , I was going to tell them they have more blood on their hands , this is pitiful .
April 7th, 2006 at 11:48 am#12 They are trying to float in the whole mess.
April 7th, 2006 at 11:54 amC.N.N.:Atleast 74 dead.A better harvest for Chimp.
April 7th, 2006 at 12:04 pmHere is a very good analysis from The World Peace Herald:
Right now, however, it is the Shiite-Sunni conflict that is the main driving force of events [in Iraq]. It is significant to note, as [The Forward's Chaim] Kaufmann does, that this conflict did not erupt overnight after the Golden Mosque bombing in February.
April 7th, 2006 at 1:21 pm“Sectarian conflict has been burning for several years,” he wrote. “Sunni terrorists and death squads have been killing Shiite civilians since 2003 while the Shiites have been retaliating on an ever-increasing scale, using Iraqi police as death squads.” (…)
The Iraqi government itself has confirmed, as Kaufmann noted, that at least 40,000 people in Iraq have been turned into refugees by the sectarian conflict in the last month alone. Over the past six weeks, Western estimates put the numbers of dead at 3,000. As we have noted in previous analyses — these figures are comparable to the major bloodbaths, forcible expulsions of minorities and related clashes that set off the sectarian conflicts in Northern Ireland and Lebanon, both of which lasted for decades.
Analysis: The many faces of Iraq’s war
#14 – A bitter harvest for the Iraqis.
April 7th, 2006 at 1:25 pm#16 Zoo.:Oh I agree.I hold Bush/Cheney accountable for all death,mutilation and destruction in Iraq.Remember;”you break it,you own it”.
