The whole thing will collapse in Iraq once the west armies leave. The iraqis dont know how to run a brothel. Civil war is a certainty. What are we wasting British lives there for for Christs sake.
ReplyDeleteDubya says Abu Graib is a 'dissapointment'. Ah, bless.
ReplyDeleteThis is from the New York Times:
"Abu Ghraib was a terrible disappointment," Bush said. "And admittedly, I wasn't there on the site, but I was the commander-in-chief of a military where these disgraceful acts took place that sent the absolute wrong image about America and our military."
He also said the Iraq mission has taken "longer than I thought it would," but, he added, "I am pleased to see a multiethnic society begin to emerge. I talked to the leaders of Iraq yesterday and today and congratulated them on doing some hard work. And I love to hear their spirit in their voice."
