An Iraqi blogger called Alaa has a nice tribute to President Bush: "The bones in the mass graves salute you, Avenger of the Bones," he writes. "Hail, Friend and Ally, Hail, Sheikh of Sheikhs, GWB; Descendant of the Noble Ancient Celt."

Yes the day will come when the millions will come out to welcome the best friend that the Mesopotamian people have ever had...

What a tribute but as the President said, seize the opportunity. A free, peaceful Iraq with respect and dignity for all is the tribute the President most wants.

The bones in the mass graves salute you, Avenger of the Bones.

That touches my heart. So I can just imagine what it does for the President.

Thanks RC for the ping.

You are very welcome, Kat.

There are some courageous 'bloggers' in Iraq today...and no Iraqi Info Ministry to shut them down.

Please give Khevin my thanks. Good job, mom. (^:

Alaa was quoted in the Globe and Mail as saying about the capture of Saddam... "I am happy, I am happy, I am happy." :)

"The bones in the mass graves salute you, Avenger of the Bones."
"Hail Friend and Ally, Hail, Sheikh of Sheikhs, GWB, Descendant of the Noble Ancient Celt"

Wow!What a flair for words Alaa has. I saw this "Avenger of the Bones" as another Freeper's tag line, on another thread. I was wondering what it meant. Thanks for posting this, and clearing up the mystery.

Cool saying: "GWB-Avenger of the Bones" -Great description & tribute to our President.

Thanks for the ping, PYW. I missed you yesterday, in all the excitement.

This title gives me goosebumps, and so fitting.

The Iraqi bloggers are helping us get the truth out. Can you imagine what it must be like to finally speak after being tormented and misrepresented to the world for years?

Why doing Terri news and Iraqi news at the same time is so difficult.

Another wonderful Iraqi blogger's reaction to Saddam's capture:



IRAQ THE MODEL
Sunday, December 14, 2003

The big brother in a small hole
Horrraaaaa
It's the justice day.
I'm speechless.
I'm crying.
The tyrants' hour has finally came. I went down to the streets to share the joy with my brothers. This is our day, the day of all the oppressed and good people on earth.
Tears of joy filled the eyes of all the people.
Saddam, the coward, hides in a hole, shaking in fear from being captured.
Not a single bullet was fired, without any resistance, God, he was even cooperative! The mighty tyrant, who exploited all our country's fortune for his personal protection, surrenders like the cowered I expected him to be.
Yes, he should be prosecuted in Iraq. We will not allow anything else.
We want to see him in a cage bending more and more, humiliated more and more, just as he forced all the Iraqis to bend to him, like they were his slaves. But we will not be like him, we will give him a fair trail, and he will get just what he deserves, although I have no idea what does he really deserve.
It's indeed an inauspicious day for all the tyrants. Let them know that their days are near too.
This is the day of all Iraqi martyrs who were slaughtered just to please his sick lust for blood.
Rest in peace my brothers. The paradise is yours and the disgrace and hell is for all the tyrants on earth.
Thank you American, British, Spanish, Italian, Australian, Ukrainian, Japanese and all the coalition people and all the good people on earth.
God bless the 1st brigade.
God bless the 4th infantry division.
God bless Iraq.
God bless America.
God bless the coalition people and soldiers.
God bless all the freedom loving people on earth.
I wish I could hug you all.
