The forgotten war...sounds about right...

And now they want to split it up into 2 countries....

[ChairmanAgnostic]

1. I thought three, shia, sunni and kurdish

with the kurds further along than anyone else in making a new country. Except that Turkey will be starting an offensive soon because of terra-ist attacks by Kurds against them.

2. If Iraq is the forgotten war, then what is Afghanistan?

It boggles my mind that we can have soldiers dying in battle and our media doesn't think it's newsworthy enough to report on it. For CNN to label Iraq as "the forgotten war" is just adding a horrible amount of insult to injury. No CNN, Iraq isn't forgotten, just under reported so who's fault is that??

3. To the bu$h regime and their media whores that spells success

It was quite convenient that when debate in the US over Iraq was finally heating up another conflict flares in the ME. This one over two kidnapped solders... hmmmmm?

4. First we had to Re-remember Afgan--now the same for Irag.
