45 dead in Iraq today

[daclayman]

Here, here. I'll feed um.

I not happy with CNN's biased news reporting but I do like the option the website gives for email alerts. I can choose to receive links to articles in email that only contain the words 'bush' and 'idiot'.

Isn't that redundant?

I have been waiting for something to happen and it did today.

Did you hear Rumsfeld about this?

His opinion was that is was sad, but people get killed in homicides in cities all around the world every day. Just one of those tragic things.

AHAH!, caught him! Notice not long ago he would have been making comments about having to go after Saddam supporters or "dead enders"? Well, now why this change in attitude? Because the US is pulling out. Suddenly many of the things we supposedly liberated Iraq from are just a tragic event.

Rummy cannot make a big fuss over anything in Iraq because if he did, then it would look like we are leaving Iraq to hang, and that cannot be especially so close to the election.

In a way, he is right in that people do commit terrible deeds daily, but that has not been how it was spun, until now.

Bottom line, when the US turns things over, it won't matter or not that Iraq suffers more bombing than Israel. It will just be a sad thing. No reason for the US to get involved

This is a liberation of expedience, of cover, and it always has been.

Bowfinger, did that little boy press charges?


There is that funny enough for you? Posting some stupid outrageous statement that has no basis in fact is humor according to you and certain others.

So be it.

Sorry, I have no idea what you're talking about unless that's some flacid attempt to insinuate I'm a pedophile. If you've really stooped that low, then you have no room to lecture anyone else about "expected more from you". On the other hand, you have a lot in common with Dari.

Lighten up, Francis.

Correct me if i'm wrong, but would the terrorists still be there using truck bombs to blow everything up if we hadn't intervened?

No probably not, they'd be blowing sh1t up in DC or NYC.

^^^ Must be one of the idiots who believe Iraq and al-qaeda are aligned and were both responsible for the September 11th attacks??

Oh, and you don't think Al-qaeda is not focusing more on Iraq now than on attacks on US soil?

As far as 9/11 and al-qaeda/Iraq link, I don't know. It's possible there was no link and it's also possible there was. I think that al-qaeda at one time didn't approve of Saddam but I don't know if anything changed between 91 and 2001.

Those animals kill another 45 of their own people with another car bomb

thx red dawn, thread has been updated.

It seems that Hussien isn't the only Iraqi who doesn't mind killing his own people!

This is a war. These horrible terrorist bombings are examples of why we are in Iraq right now and why we should stay in Iraq for YEARS. These terrorists do NOT want to see a democracy set up in the Middle East. They are desparate to prevent it. An Iraqi democracy will start a domino effect and over the course of this century democracy will spread across the Middle East, thus elimiating the breeding grounds of global terrorism. Blaming terrorist strikes on the U.S. makes you look like an ignorant fool. Some people don't have the intellectual ability to see the bigger picture unfolding.

Like Rummy said, people get killed every day. No big deal

BTW, there are plenty of terrorists. Those who think they are safe because they have managed to create a situation where someone else suffers are living under an assumption I think is false. Terrorists have used the spectre of US imperialism as a recrutement tool, and there we go invading Iraq like Bin Laden wanted. A large part of the reason there are more terrorists in Iraq is because there are more. This "war on terror" move probably pushed many into actively participating in "liberating" Iraq from the Americans, and eventually I think this will spread to our interests elsewhere in the world. I hope I am wrong, but so far nothing suggests that those who feared Iraq BECOMING a terrorist breeding ground were wrong.

Has it been confirmed that the bomb was planted by an Iraqi?

Do you think the residents of Baghdad, especially the victims of the bombing and their relatives now believe they are better off than before we invaded Iraq?

Yes they are. It only takes a handful of insurgents to set up a bomb like this that causes so much death and misery to their own people.

An Iraqi democracy will start a domino effect and over the course of this century democracy will spread across the Middle East, thus elimiating the breeding grounds of global terrorism.

I believe the problem with terrorists, especially in the Middle East, has more to do with religious fanatism than any kind of Government.

Blaming terrorist strikes on the U.S. makes you look like an ignorant fool. Some people don't have the intellectual ability to see the bigger picture unfolding.

How can anybody in their right mind blame this attack carried out by Iraqi's against other Iraqi's as the fault of Americans? That's like saying the Viet Cong terrorizing Viet Namese villagers as the doing of American Troops stationed there during that war.

You think it might have been a Frenchman?

Practically the choices are an Iraqi, or someone Bush's actions encouraged. Of course this was completely unforseeable. Sure it was.

Then again, has anyone checked on where Chiarc was when this happened?
