THE LATEST NEWS FROM IRAQ: Throughout all Iraq mass of people with open arms welcome American troops,offering candy , flowers and layer cakes invite them to their houses to socialize and to eat traditional meal.On the streets people exclaim slogan"occupation is good"."long live president Bush","resistance is bad",very touchy,I can't stop crying.

Your right, the Constitution has nothing to do with Iraq but the Ten Comandments do when it says "Thou Shall not Kill"

I dont care about the rise in Iraqi Currency.
You would be more conserned with money arnt you? The focus shouldnt be on the Economy, but human lives and Justice.

by the way the Iraqi Government is not Democratic, 95% of the people would vote that we need to leave, That would be true Democracy.
by the way I dont have cable, so i wouldnt know about CNN in the first place.

well pepe get your facts right the badr militia was fighting hussein during his rule, they are a militia but freedom fighters at theri core. so they where used to kickstart the new iraqi government and army but now the iraqi armi has over 200.000 men do you really believe that most of these men have any affiliation with the badr brigade and the badr family does not run iraq they hold ew oficial posts and their influence is waivering strongly by the way the m. army was killing basra citicens.

Mr Eclectik.... did you hear that you are full of crap? A bunch of Iraqi army, a thousnad or so, left their posts and few dozen give aide to the insurgents. They were all fired from their jobs in the army. Yeah apparently the iraqi army quelled the mahdi army in Basra so yes the IAs allegence is with their own people not with ranting islamofacists pig face assholes like muqtada al sadar.

this report is a joke. every one here posting anti bush comments and peace loving hippie rhetoric is a joke. These Mahdi assholes are too scared shitless to face the US or Iraqi Army forces face to face so they fire a few rockets and take some pot shots with their AKs and it all lookes cute on TV. You are all a joke because you buy into the bull shit that they want you to believe. So I wonder whos the greater fool? the fool or the fool who follows him (in the words of a wise Obie Won Kanobie)?
