Don,

You sound like you know your tactics.

The Iraqi Army could use a guy like you.

Please enlist.

The war will not last long, Iraq's Army will be surrendering soon. They have not the will or means to fight the oncoming fury of America.

Try not to be so wacky with your posting.

donny. You said...." It would save a lot of lives if against all odds Bush were to get lucky, but at this stage of the game Bush stands a lot higher chance of being the first US President in history to be tried for war crimes and executed for high treason. "......

YOU really love sadam don't you? Bet you love idi amin and mugabe as well. What do you think of the russians killing muslims every day without UN approval? And how about france killing innocent people in Africa and backing the muslim radicals who are killing christians each and every day without UN approval ...bet that really makes you happy?

Is it just the USA that you appear to hate.

Dumb Earl, I'm really amazed at your cowardice, right now you should be in Iraq serving as one of those human shields, maybe you could protect your hero and make a great political point to the world at the same time... but, noooooooo, you just hang around here blabbing away with your unschooled mouth about how the legitimate leader of the Western world is a criminal... I bet on 9/11 you were jumping for joy...

GZ

It is already happening

welcome another invasion with dewy eyed adoration.

According to an CBS radio report, people have taken to the streets yelling "No Saddam" "Bush". They have been seen tearing down Saddam posters and monuments and cheering the US soldiers.

Shall we start a tally on how many times you have been and will continue to be proven wrong? That should be fun.

"No Saddam Hussein!" one young man in headscarf told Gurfein. "Bush!"

Friday, March 21, 2003
Associated Press

SAWFAN, Iraq — U.S. Marines hauled down giant street portraits of Saddam Hussein in a screeching pop of metal and bolts Friday, telling nervous residents of this southern Iraqi town that "Saddam is done."


Milling crowds of men and boys watched as the Marines attached ropes on the front of their Jeeps to one portrait and then backed up, peeling the Iraqi leader's black-and-white metal image off a frame. Some locals briefly joined Maj. David "Bull" Gurfein in a new cheer.

"Iraqis! Iraqis! Iraqis!" Gurfein yelled, pumping his fist in the air.

"We wanted to send a message that Saddam is done," said Gurfein, a New York native in the 1st Marine Expeditionary Force. "People are scared to show a lot of emotion. That's why we wanted to show them this time we're here, and Saddam is done."

The Marines arrived in Safwan, just across the Kuwait border, after Cobra attack helicopters, attack jets, tanks, 155 mm howitzers and sharpshooters cleared the way along Route 80, the main road into Iraq.

Safwan, 375 miles south of Baghdad, is a poor, dirty, wrecked town pocked by shrapnel from the last Gulf war. Iraqi forces in the area sporadically fired mortars and guns for hours Thursday and Friday. Most townspeople hid, although residents brought forth a wounded little girl, her palm bleeding after the new fighting. Another man said his wife was shot in the leg by the Americans.

A few men and boys ventured out, putting makeshift white flags on their pickup trucks or waving white T-shirts out truck windows.

"Americans very good," Ali Khemy said. "Iraq wants to be free."

Some chanted, "Ameriki! Ameriki!"

Many others in the starving town just patted their stomachs and raised their hands, begging for food.

A man identifying himself only as Abdullah welcomed the arrival of the U.S. troops: "Saddam Hussein is no good. Saddam Hussein a butcher."

An old woman shrouded in black -- one of the very few women outside -- knelt toward the feet of Americans, embracing an American woman. A younger man with her pulled her away, giving her a warning sign by sliding his finger across his throat.

In 1991, hundreds of thousands of Iraqis died after prematurely celebrating what they believed was their liberation from Saddam after the Gulf War. Some even pulled down a few pictures of Saddam then -- only to be killed by Iraqi forces.

Gurfein playfully traded pats with a disabled man and turned down a dinner invitation from townspeople.

"Friend, friend," he told them in Arabic learned in the first Gulf War.

"We stopped in Kuwait that time," he said. "We were all ready to come up there then, and we never did."

The townspeople seemed grateful this time.

"No Saddam Hussein!" one young man in headscarf told Gurfein. "Bush!"

It'll be great when the sadistic Iraqi generals and torture chiefs go on trial for their war crimes, and their crimes against humanity.

Hopefully Jaques Chirac will also go on trial, for his duplicity and accessory in aiding Saddam's 30-year murder and torture spree.
