2. RIP.

I suspect things are going to get worse, before they get better.

3. Meanwhile Americans ignore the deaths of over half a million Iraqis

We are all engaged in a deadly game of tribal wars.

4. Pile 'em higher and higher!

Grass Bush

Pile the bodies high in Austerlitz and Waterloo Iraq
Shovel them under and let me work--
I am the grass; bush; I cover all.

And pile them high in Gettyburg Baghdad
And pile them high in Ypres and Vedum Mossoul and Al Fallaujah

Two years, ten years, and passengers ask the conductor:
What place is this?

I am the grass bush.
Let me work.

7. HOW MANY MORE GEORGIE, HOW MANY MORE?

No Man Can Find The War


Photographs of guns and flame
Scarlet skull and distant game
Bayonet and jungle grin
Nightmares dreamed by bleeding men
Lookouts tremble on the shore
But no man can find the war

Tape recorders echo scream
Orders fly like bullet stream
Drums and cannons laugh aloud
Whistles come from ashen shroud
Leaders damn the world and roar
But no man can find the war

Is the war across the sea?
Is the war behind the sky?
Have you each and all gone blind:
Is the war inside your mind?

Humans weep at human death
All the talkers lose their breath
Movies paint a chaos tale
Singers see and poets wail
All the world kows the score
But no man can find the war

--tim buckley




They owe us the truth before the next war begins.

8. There are many more than they are telling us

Initial reports that 300 US troops were killed on Oct 10 in the attack on Falcon Base

Read this report from the Stars and Stripes Mideast edition. When will the Bush administration, DoD and the US media level with us.

It is way worse over there than any of us know.
