Are you going to blame this on the US, the way that when a fanatic drives a car full of explosives into a crowd of young Iraqis, you blame it on the US? Lebanon votes in second round of polls gulf-news.com; You had no problem blaming the US for this chain of events in Lebanon: UN team says Syria fully withdraws forces from Lebanon english.people.com.cn And yet, if something bad happens, the US is innocent of any involvement. So which is it? Are we only responsible for the good things that happen in other countries? Is that how your world works? As for me, I do not think the US is responsible for any of the recent events in Lebanon both good and bad.

Get your spin machine ready......this stupid judge wants more Abu Ghraib pics released. Of course, we all know they are fake. [Note to Tom Delay.........its time to move on the judiciary]. But it will be confusing to the rest of Americans. ************************************************ Judge orders Pentagon to release 100 new photos of Abu Ghraib prison abuse** By Andrew Gumbel in Los Angeles 05 June 2005 A US judge has ordered the Bush administration to release more than 100 new photographs and videos of abused prisoners at Abu Ghraib, creating a fresh public relations nightmare for government officials as they seek to rebut accusations that the US is sponsoring torture in Iraq, Afghanistan and beyond. The ruling comes as Tony Blair prepares to fly to Washington for meetings this week with George Bush. Although the Prime Minister's trip is part of a series of visits to fellow G8 leaders before next month's summit at Gleneagles in Scotland, Downing Street has said that the two men will also discuss Iraq, where violence has recently surged. A suicide car bomber attacked a police patrol in Baghdad yesterday, seriously wounding two policemen. During the day, hundreds of Iraqi and US troops braved the heat to search fields and farms in an area known as the Triangle of Death, for hideouts used by predominantly Sunni Arab militants to mount suicide attacks against nearby Baghdad. continued.................. news.independent.co.uk
