Yep. A good friend of mine died because of their pull-out from Iraq.

Rob was leading a convoy that was to resupply the Spanish garrison in Central Iraq, but the Spanish didn't bother to tell anybody that they'd pulled out of the town, abandoning it to the terrorists as they cut and ran from Iraq.

The convoy rolled into town the next morning and was hit by a very heavy ambush. Rob managed to get all of his men out of town and directed them into defensive positions until reinforcements could arrive, but he died as a result of wounds received during the initial ambush.

I am very sorry for that, Stonewall.

The figure of killed in the 3/11 attack is well above the 194 acknowledged by the court, since preparatory -before- and cover-up -afterwards- operations were carried out.

In some cases they were murdered right in front of his home.

It is the way these people do business.

I know what you meant. That was what we call a joke here in America. I was being ‘sarcastic’. If you’ve read the other posts to you on this page and need further explanation, I’m afraid I can’t help you. Perhaps you should petition your government to provide better education in your public schools, if that is allowed.

It is not allowed, according to Socialist principles, "better" education means elitism and unequality (between the best and the worst pupils.) It is un-Socialists and does not reflect the principles of Social justice, in which, it seems, the knowledge level of all pupils must be the same, that is, equal to one of the worst of them.

That is what is happening in Spain.

I’m sorry if I seemed mean before. I feel like I kicked a puppy. I hope things get better for y’all over there. Spain used to be such a nice country.

Thank you very much. I am afraid things would get much worse before they turn better.
