FALLUJAH, Iraq (AP) — In one of the bloodiest days in weeks for the U.S. military, five troops died when a bomb exploded under their military vehicle west of Baghdad on Wednesday. At least four foreign nationals, including one American, were killed in a separate attack and some of the bodies were burned, beaten and hanged from a bridge. --- I guess we haven't quite dealt with that big "Mission Accomplished" banner yet... what an incredible waste of American lives and resources.

Re: terror is gradually coming closer to you. Wonder what rationale you will come up with next. Well, as I said, Europe's patchwork pattern means that national borders work as "political firewalls" between the countries... As far as Belgium is concerned, I don't trust Belgian police and intelligence outfits: if it were not for France's and Germany's resolute opposition to the US policy, I'm afraid Belgium would have ended up as the US's second poodle (after Britain). If anything, the so-called "Brabant killings" of 1982-85 are an ominous precedent that shows how vulnerable/pliant Belgium can be to US/Israeli pressure.... Then again, I do worry about the next couple of months and the European/regional elections of June 14th, 2004. Our local Judeofascist party Vlaams Blok would greatly benefit from an "Islamic terrorist attack". Anyway, European policymakers are well aware that all that al-Qaeda yarn is bogus and that, apart from the Madrid bombings (an ETA hackwork in behalf of an Arab country), all the terrorist bombings have been perpetrated either by the Mossad or the CIA --or some loose combination of CIA/Mossad rogues. Therefore, it's up to our European brass to know whether they want to repeat their (grand-)daddies' past blunders or not.... It's all too easy to scapegoat "ugly Arab sleepers", just as, in the 1930s, it was easy to blame the Jews, the Communists and the unionists. After all, it's just gonna be the third time in less than a hundred years that Europe screws it up bigtime --1914-18, 1940-45, and 2004-08??? This time around, however, there won't be any "Marshall Plan" to bail Eurodunces out of their own shit --if anyone might show some interest in salvaging what will be left of Europe, it's gonna be the Chinese, if only to use Europe as a counterweight against the US... So I guess there'll be a "Hu Plan" to rebuild Europe. Now there's another scenario: a civil war breaking out in America... whose shockwaves might trigger a similar snafu in Europe... So far I don't know which one is the likelier: civil war in America or Judeofascism in Europe? Gus
