Yes. No need to simplify things.

Wow, samething happened with Bush Jr - a foreign company that wanted oil rights from the USA invested in Bush Jr's company immediately after Bush Sr (who was president at the time) visited them.

Amazingly crass.

I would be embarrassed if my parents helped me with my company like that. Additionally, my parents would have better ethics than to do what the Bush parents do.

Bomb at US-Iraqi base kills 30 39 minutes ago


At least 30 people were killed in a bomb blast inside a joint U.S.-Iraq base in Mosul on Monday, police said.

An Interior Ministry source said the explosion targeted Iraqi army recruits and may have been carried out by a suicide bomber strapped with explosives but it was not immediately possible to verify this. No further details were available.

In December 2004 a suicide bomber wearing Iraqi uniform blew himself up at a U.S. armed forces mess tent in Mosul, killing 21 people, among them 14 U.S. troops and four other Americans.

It was not immediately clear if Monday's explosion took place at the same site.

The blast occurred one day after 20 people were shot dead in the Mustafa mosque near Sadr City in Baghdad in what some Shi'ite leaders said was a massacre of worshippers by U.S. troops. Police and residents said the killings resulted from a clash between American and Shi'ite militia men.
