[Barrett808]

DHULUIYA - U.S. forces arrested a woman doctor late on Tuesday in Dhuluiya, 40 km (25 miles) north of Baghdad, a day after she accused U.S. forces of stealing $4,000 in gold during a raid on her house, officials said.

I just couldn't let this go without comment.

1. Many of the Iraqi professionals have fled Iraq

because of total chaos and mistreatment. You need to look at www.icasualties.org for further info.

This "war" is a tragedy for the Iraqis and our military.

2. If they arrested her

for saying it I guess they don't plan on giving her gold back to her.

3. This might dovetail with the report earlier today about U.S. troops

going hungry in Iraq.
