We are dealing with wild tribes No civilization No communication No rationalization No salvation Devastating our Military Population

When in Iraq -we do as the Iraqi's do- -do? Isn't it rich Isn't it queer The tribes of Iraq Drove U.S. to insanity It's quite clear! (R)onald (D)umsfield tried to keep it quite! Horrendous Pictures - Now videos Causing a World-wide riot!! The Prez gave his apology for the abuse and humility Suffered by those imprisoned and their families! All is fair in love and war? We do what WE must to even the score! Who is in command To force a soldier's hand? We are dealing with wild tribes No communication No civilization No rationalization No salvation Devastating our Military population. Iraqis' want to die to get to Allah Strapping bombs on themselves and their babies Maiming and killing our soldiers with road-side & car bombs - daily!!! Just Who do you think is crazy? U.S. martyrs multiply! Family and Friends Cry out WHY! Our soldiers are sitting ducks Facing an unforeseen enemy Fearlessly acknowledging their destiny! Forcing our soldiers to irrational acts of humiliation and insanity -- Kill or be Killed? Torture or be Tortured? Orders from the top?! We must get out and FAST or else This war will LAST FOREVER ! PS: We need "homeland security NOW!!! ��

Karen, no one I know of is happy to be in Iraq. What do we do? Stay the course and keep trying ot pacify this country, or pull out?
Whatever we do, it will be condemned. How do we win the trust of the Iraquia people? So many questions need to be answered. Maybe this administration in office now is not asking them? Bill

This is very good, though I'm not sure I'd justify Saddam through the crazy behavior of others.
