Teribus--

Whatever you say, Mr. Pollyanna.

All parties said the "surge" itself was only to buy time for "national reconciliation". So where is the "national reconciliation"? And if it is not occurring, why should any "Coalition" soldiers be dying in Iraq--(except possibly in "Kurdistan" where it is obvious they are wanted).

So we are down to "only" 38 or so "Coalition" soldiers dying per month. You and the other Bush apologists should be detailed to explain in person to the parents of each dead soldier just exactly why that death was necessary.

Sunnis are volunteering for the armed forces and the police--mainly since it is a paying job--paid by US taxpayers. But the Maliki government does not want them.

Why? Since the Maliki government has learned from you--that all Sunnis are the equivalent of hardcore Nazis in 1945. That was certainly a brilliant observation on your part.
