1. what about the people we have executed

with our bombing raids on populated areas?

2. Terrorists are evil doers.

Our Glorious Leader tells us, his children, the truth in simple words. We are blessed to have such a Glorious Leader of our Homeland.

3. I cannot let this pass without putting the shoe on the other foot

If the U.S. were invaded and conquered and occupied by a foreign force, and that foreign force installed a puppet government, began stealing its resources and building 14 permanent military bases and intended to stay and occupy this country.......wouldn't patriotic american begin an insurgency? Wouldn't any americans who joined forces with the occupiers to oppress the U.S. be legitimate military targets?

I am sorry for the loss of life on all sides. I am disgusted that my country invaded Iraq and is oppressing Iraqis to steal their resources and attempt to foist a puppet government on them.

I don't think it will work.

4. Red Dawn...

a movie that fulfills the SHTF dream of the gunnuts.

5. Bush is banking on Margaret Hassan being beheaded

so he can shore up support especially with women just before the election.

6. The confusion.

There is the "Insurgency" and there are "terrorists", sometimes the same but not always. There are various groups in Iraq that have different goals but the thing that ties most together is the fight against the colonization of Iraq by the US and the UK. This has made for a confusing perception to most people.

The US did not and never did care about a democratic Iraq. Here is the reality.

The Hand-Over That Wasn't: Illegal Orders give the US a Lock on Iraq's Economy
by Antonia Juhasz

Officially, the U.S. occupation of Iraq ended on June 28, 2004. But in reality, the United States is still in charge: Not only do 138,000 troops remain to control the streets, but the "100 Orders" of L. Paul Bremer III remain to control the economy.

These little noticed orders enacted by Bremer, the now-departed head of the now-defunct Coalition Provisional Authority, go to the heart of Bush administration plans in Iraq. They lock in sweeping advantages to American firms, ensuring long-term U.S. economic advantage while guaranteeing few, if any, benefits to the Iraqi people.

The Bremer orders control every aspect of Iraqi life - from the use of car horns to the privatization of state-owned enterprises. Order No. 39 alone does no less than "transition from a … centrally planned economy to a market economy" virtually overnight and by U.S. fiat.

Although many thought that the "end" of the occupation would also mean the end of the orders, on his last day in Iraq Bremer simply transferred authority for the orders to Prime Minister Iyad Allawi - a 30-year exile with close ties to the CIA and British intelligence.
