the insurgents? This sounds like Bush has turned over control of our troops to the Iraqi provisional Government. This sucks.

1. Jeeze, don't you get it? We are Allawi's bitch now
Of course he's going to call the shots. What is BushCo going to do about it? Show him up for the puppet we all know he is?

This guy, like the guy before him, is a past master at playing the so-called "geniuses" of the West for fools and morons, time after time after time. The bureaucrats always think they are using people like this, and always wind up with shit all over their faces when they find out who really is on top.

This is the part of the world where the double cross is an art form taught in kindergarten.

5. Bush hasn't turned shit over to Allawi.
Listen to Allawi's public statements. They're Republican talking points. He's a puppet, and he'll say whatever he's told to say.

6. Many times lately, bush & allawi
have made it sound as if our troops our under Iraqi control. Makes me very angry to even hear them sound like that.

7. It's the global test - we don't attack unless foreign leaders let us
Our soldiers will attack if he says to do so, and will abstain if he says no. It's the global test. American commanders are just bit-part actors who make sure that the food is hot when the fighting is over.
