What's the price of Iraqi lives?

Let's ask the foreign killers who are actually causing the problem.

Could you guys please stop hiding among and behind Iraqi women and children? This causes an awful lot of innocent deaths.

Thank you.

Linda S. Heard is a British specialist writer on Middle East affairs. She welcomes feedback and can be contacted by email at mailto:heardonthegrapevines@yahoo.co.uk

So we have Democrats in America conspiring with lefty Brits in Dubai to fire up anti-American sentiment amongst the English-reading Emiratis, Saudis, Bahrainis, Qataris, Omanis, Pakistanis, Sri Lankans, Malaysians, Indians, et al. Most of the educated people in the Gulf do read English better than they speak it.

And just in time for the Iranian phase. Thanks Colonel Murtha, you son of a bi . . .

Thank you. You just gave me a great tag line and bumper sticker idea.

Thanks for the link. I just finished the donation process at her site. Her campaign is now $25 richer due to Murtha's traitorous behavior. I hope she spanks his wrinkled old arse.

If it happened as the anti-American propagandist described, which is not yet proven, it only goes to show that this is a war. It's not to excuse the act to state unequivocally that atrocities occur in every war. If it happened in this case it would have been be pertinent to point out that it was an anomaly. But not to this virulently anti-American writer. Couldn't she get as exorcised at the wanton killing of many more Iraqis by fellow Iraqis and terrorists (insurgents)? Oh no, she facilely blames that on the Americans as well.

Good for you! Thanks for supporting Diana and our troops financially. Let me know if you'd like to be on the Irey/Murtha ping list.

[1] Guess she never read about Hulegu and the Mongols.
[2] Guess she never read about the Roman Army. And they were from the greatest civilization that existed at the time.

I wonder if Congressman Murtha is proud of his disgusting behavior that feeds the flames of American hatred by hacks like this writer. He is a disgrace.

Diana Irey is running against him and supports our military and the WOT. We can help her defeat him by supporting her.

Demonrats have no shame! A lust for power is their sole motivator.

I did a Google search on Linda S. Heard, and copied and pasted part of the article found here: http://www.habtoor.com/anenemycalledapathy/l-1.htm

Linda Heard is a British editor, journalist and columnist currently based in Cairo where she is a correspondent for the English-language Saudi daily The Arab News. Besides the writer’s weekly column in the Gulf News and regular articles in Shindagah magazine, her political commentaries have been published in Ahram Weekly, the South China Morning Post, Athens News, Palestine Chronicle, CounterPunch, Alternet, Online Journal and Outlook India.

However, after many years spent in the Arab world, including Dubai - where she was the Editor of both the Emirates In-flight and the Dubai Airport publications - Linda has grown to love the Middle East, North Africa and the Gulf. “When I hear the hauntingly beautiful call of the muezzin, I know I’m home,” she is known to say.

IMO, she is bad news and appears to be very biased and is no friend of the United States. I didn't read anything that validated or proved what she has written is true. She is not going to accept anything positive about the Marines or the United States, and I am not going to accept anything she writes as being factual! She isn't worth spitting on if she was on fire.

And we have to decide if we're going to reward their anti-American efforts because we're mad about a pet issue or two, or if we're going to send a powerful message by defeating a 16-term Congressman.

Good point re Murtha hyping through use of term "cold blood." Is this guy demented?
