Home Truths You'll Never Read in the Press
Who's Really Running Iraq?
By PATRICK COCKBURN
The success of 'the Surge' is becoming almost received wisdom in the US.
This is strange since, if the US strategy did win such an important victory,
why do America generals need more soldiers, currently 147,000 of them, in
Iraq than they did before 'the Surge' started?

It is not if we will be extremists, but what kind of extremists will we be?
- Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr
By Cindy Sheehan
I am angry. No, I am incensed that hundreds of thousands of people are
dead, dying, wounded, displaced from their homes or being imprisoned
and tortured by the sadists that reside or work at 1600 Pennsylvania
Avenue -- Are you incensed? If not, maybe you should ask yourself:
"Why?" Hypothetically: "Why am I not enraged that my country has
killed or hurt so many people for absolutely no noble cause in my name
and with my tacit approval?"

coincidence that they all have royal bloodlines?? Even Obama and
McCain have royal bloodlines.
