Hi Hawkmoon; Re: "That wasn't the question.. GST..
Don't take the time to debate anything with me if you can't, or are unwilling to, provide an answer to my questions. The ICRC has been attacked in Iraq. The UN has been attacked in Iraq. The Jordanian embassy was attacked. NONE OF THESE ENTITIES IS OCCUPYING IRAQ.
"

Violence of all sorts is going on in Iraq. It's perpetrated by a wide variety of groups, each with its own unique agenda. All this is complicated, perhaps too complicated for a moron like me to understand. But it's well known among people who read newspapers that a widespread belief among the Iraqis is that Jordan and the UN conspired with the US to conquer Iraq. As to what the Iraqis believe about the ICRC I cannot say. No one has reported any stories about that.

I do know is that before Bush started this war, we were losing almost no troops in the Middle East.

You've failed to answer my comment that Bush has traded a situation where we could bomb the Iraqis without fear of retribution for a situation where the Iraqis can bomb us with little fear of retribution. Do you admit that this is true?
