Re: "I read one of the newest issues of National Geographic this AM...There is an article in there about two of the Lost Boys of Sudan... Too bad the Leftists in the US don't read some of their stories. Perhaps then they would understand what Iraq is about. The militant Islamists came into the Sudan years ago, and tried to impose Shiria law on them...."

Thought you were writing about the Islamicists of Sudan?

(What does that have to do with Iraq? Although S.H. was certainly a murderous Dictator, prior to his overthrow Iraq was perhaps the *most* 'secular' of Arab nations. Radical Islamicists were tossed in prison or killed. They did not use Sharia courts --- like they do in Basra now....)

Of course things are quite different now, with *both* main sides of the Iraqi civil war, the Sunni and the Shia, employing and enabling radical fundamentalists to fight on their side in the war....

Re: "Lost Boys of Sudan."

Wonder just who you think has been President low these last six years (as the Sudan ethnic cleansing / civil war has happened)?

And just who has been in control of Congress over that same period?

Must be the 'Leftists' in the U.S., right? :-)

I know more that a couple of the lost boys. You have no idea how bad it was. Kids off gathering food in the jungle came home to find all adults slaughtered. Older kids of 9 adopting the younger ones while they all tried to make due in the bush wand find refuge.
