#1 I know the Iraqi elections aren't far away (end of Jan), but I am still incredulous that the silly notion that Iraq, an invention dating to the Sykes-Picot Martini Hour, is treated as unassailable and continues to hold the Kurds hostage to the progress (er, the lack is more accurate) of the Iraqi Arabs. Sigh.

#2 "The Americans are shooting anything that moves."
GOOD! He caught on, didn't he? No excuses, then, is there. Stay down, lock the friggin door, and keep the "Survivor" show volume down low as well.... good tips, follow 'em

#3 The Americans are shooting anything that moves

Um, not exactly:

"On another occasion, the snipers tensed when they heard movement in the direction of a smoldering building. A cat sauntered out, unconcerned with anything but making its rounds in the neighborhood.

'Can I shoot it, sir?' a sniper asked an officer.

'Absolutely not,' came the reply.

Sorry, got a soft spot for kitties...

#4 Okay, I'll bite - where's all the Radical Islamists whom professed to prefer death rather than allow US milfors to descrate a holy shrine/city. Armed men whom profess to be so dedicated to Allah and the Prophet should be dying-in-place, NOT running to escape death.
