Too Long Already!!!.

A summary of the war in Iraq.

Death! Bombs! Bullets! Destruction! This is what the citizens of Iraq, Iran, and other cities over in the middle east have to deal with every day . Many people think, "Oh, those poor American soldiers over there." Bah! I say oh those poor middle eastern children who have no good food to eat and dirty nasty water and houses that were bombed down because of the assumption that there was a terrorist hiding there, or because one of the grenade launchers missed it's target and "accidentally " hit that house instead.

Last week four people were interviewed on the News Hour with Jim Lehrer. Only one of them said that the whole war was a huge mistake, and I totally agree! That person was democrat, Jan Schakowsky. She says that only three out of eighteen benchmarks were met. Talk about stupidity! One thing that she said was, "Either the troops move out and give peace or keep breaking the vessel."

Government officials say that 30,000 troops may leave Iraq by July, leaving 130,000 still in Iraq, the same amount as before the surge.

Senator Barbara Boxer says "70% of Iraqis say that the surge made things worse" and "who wants this war to continue? Not the Iraqis, not the American citizens, and not the troops."

An Iraqi citizen interviewed by the "News Hour" confirmed what Senator boxer said." When the troops came into Iraq it stayed the same, whether they pull out or stay and it will stay the same no matter what the Americans do."

Zbigniew Brzezinski said in a news report this week that (the so called) President Bush does not listen to the heartbeat of America or its citizens(making for a lousy so called president) .

General Patreaus says that some of the troops may be redeployed come spring without replacements. He also says that the war is not going as he had planned and it may be a success but it will take a lot of work.(Personally I know it will not work.)On the News hour on Wednesday he slipped and told the truth. He said," I've been trying to prevent ... uh.. I mean present the facts as they were told."

When people in America have sons and daughters and other family members fighting a war in an unknown land for nothing more than some "terrorists" and some lousy oil a good, god fearing President would listen to their requests.

Osama Bin Laden released two new tapes, one this week and one last week. The content of the tape included instructions to stay away from America, (which I would heed if there were different circumstances )and covert to Islam which would end the war immediately without further bloodshed and violence. Even for those who dislike Osama you must admit that the troops need to pull out of Iraq instead of dying for a worthless cause.
