The whole world isn't against us. About 45 nations are with us.

Well, if we are right that the average Iraqi doesn't want Saddam in power, you are wrong. If we are wrong, it's going to be a rough time. This could be messy.

I need pictures! Are they dressed in desert "utilities" or garrison camo Uts? I disbelieve anything an Arab says today, any Arab. They have become my enemy, and you don't want to do that.

Wolf Blitzer speaking with Rumsfeld right now. Earlier than previously scheduled.
Blitzer characterizes the situation as prisoners taken with some alive and some "killed in action". That is what Blitzer said.
Rumsfeld said the tape showing POWs in a humiliatig fashion is a violation of the Geneva, Rumsfeld is ticked big time, of course.
Wolf says couldn't it be argued that the POWS that are shown alive on tape, couldn't that be a comfort to their families. Rumsfeld, sounding very disgusted, says "you can make that argument if you want". Repeats that prisoners should not shown humiliated.
My comments are what the hell is Blitzer doing using the term killed "in action" when all reports I've heard is these were executions? I suppose there is an outside chance we've been given the wrong scenario and Wolf is right, there was some "action", but my bet is not. The minimizing and rationalizing of what is going on here by Blitzer is beyond disgusting.
Rumsfeld says the days of the current regime are numbered. Blitzer wants "days, weeks or months". Rumsfeld said it is inevitable.

Where'd you see it. How many dead?
To: Chad Fairbanks
The pro-Saddam protestors are now offically irrelevant. The world awaits the French reaction.
And, I am now convinced Saddam is already burnt toast.

Well, the average American isn't used to dealing with Animals. Remember that most 20 something year olds grew up on Nickelodean.

Pentagon confirms the soldiers are the real deal on the tape....and confirms they were executed by the Iraqis in cold blood.

We do sympathize with you and the Russian people. To be honest, 9/11 was a wake up call for many Americans. I don't fault the way you deal with the Chechnyans. Islamofacists are animals and need to be treated as such.
To: kolja2003
Screw you, we are not in a particulary anti-American mood here this morning you-- Russian cretin "without an opinion" except go against the crowd (from your profile).
Hope you are enjoying the Freedom that American power brought to your country, you pathetic ingrate.
