#1 What do they want us to do? Win the war more slowly so they can keep up with the paperwork? lol!

The US-led force continues to hold far more prisoners than the Iraqi government

I'm not sure, but it appears that they suggesting that we utilize Iraqi methods of dealing with the problem. Well..ok. Hey Mo.. do you know how to drive a back hoe?

#2 The US military insists Iraqi detainees are having their cases promptly reviewed, whether though referral to an Iraqi court or through the new prisoner review board.

Who acntually gives a rat's ass about the UN thinks?

#3 "There is an urgent need to provide remedy to lengthy internment for reasons of security without adequate judicial oversight," it said.

I think this means that it's getting harder for them to find a decent waiter in Baghdad.

#5 As a US citizen I'm mortified and disgusted by my fellow countrymen's apparent lack of regard for the clear truth of the matter - that our military's presence in Iraq is what is causing the numbers of insurgents to grow so rapidly. These are human beings, and we are destroying their homes and lives. Of course they are going to resist. Duh. So would you if you had any balls. If you think that writing this makes me Un-American than I strongly question your definition of what it means to be American. As far as I'm concerned the definition that I'm gleaning from these comments is one that will ultimately lead to our country's economic demise as the nations of the world turn their backs on us in disgust, and rightly so.

#6 I think your comments are insipid mewlings from a know-nothing who would rather cower than fight. I don't respect your "arguments" enough to call them un-American, anonymous loser

#8 Of course, I'm a girl, so technically I can't have any balls. Would the kind gentleman care to move on to a meaningful argument? Thank you.

*snicker*

Hey Spiper, you're a citizen, but you aren't native born, are you? At least for your sake, I hope your tortured language is due to the fact that you learned English with a French or a British accent. Otherwise, you are one raging geek. Do you wear a little bow tie?
