F-16s Turn Iraqi Family Against Americans
2 hours, 42 minutes ago

By Michael Georgy
FALLUJA, Iraq (Reuters) - The Jawal family was one of the few in this flashpoint town who liked the Americans -- until U.S. F-16 jets dropped 500-pound bombs near their home.

"We used to have hopes of the Americans after they removed Saddam (Hussein). We thought they would deliver on their promises," said Khatoun Jawal.

"We liked them until this weekend. Why did they drop bombs near us? Some of my children were so scared they fainted."


The inmates are running the asylum. Besides, its what McMannis and Harris wanted. What we do best is Shock and Awe so this weekend was the sequel to last March's Shock and Awe event, but like with all sequels, it didn't play as well. I surprised the kids only fainted and didn't have a heart attack instead. But, of course, this is all better than Saddam.

Stupid is as stupid does! Get it yet, DR?!!
