#1 OK, Mighty American PR Machine: Wake up and get to work waving this in the faces of every Iraqi you can find.

#2 At least start waving it in the face of Michael "patriotic Iraqi minutemen' Moore.

Busting into a nursery school and killing a toddler?! How very courageous. The mothers of these murderous freaks must be so proud.

#4 Confirmation? One anonymous source still leaves me a bit skeptical. We have seen stories of atrocities turn out to be fiction before (of course some are true as well.)
Having said that, I don't mind a good piece of propaganda fiction sometimes. Make your enemy look even worse than he is so you can persuade some neutrals that you are the lesser of two evils.

#5 Besoeker - "To Truckee's Trail" is available here, from the publisher, or here from Amazon. (I get a bigger cut if you buy from the publisher, but Amazon sales boost my sales rank a little higher! Your call. (If you read it and really love it, can you post a short review on Amazon! I have to sell about 199,800 more copies before I can think of shopping for that castle in J.K. Rowlings' neighborhood!)

Sample chapters from the Verein Trilogy (or "Barsetshire with Cypress Trees and a Lot of Sidearms" are also at my website. The trilogy won't be available for a while, so small tastes to whet the appetite are all there is at present.)

#6 Thank you SGT! From the publisher, I will make it so. Counting my modest purchase, which should go in over the week end, you've got only 199,799 remaining. Real estate in Georgia is becoming very reasonable by the way.

#9 Or maybe he was more like a suicide bomber except he used a gun, which would make him a suicide shooter. Friggen Islam is rubbing off on american kids... what next...
