Keep posting these round-ups from Arabic press. It is very enlightening! We might see a transformation in them slowly like Rush's presence ushered in during the 90s here. This celebration is very humliating for Al Jazeera, etc. I read that Arabs in Dearborne Michigan attacked an Al Jazeera reporter at a celebration for lying to them.

Oil wells and bridges were rigged with explosive charges. Ditches were filled with oil. WMD were available for use. At the end of the day the majority of the Iraqi military decided they didn't want to die or ruin their country in defense of Saddam.

It goes without saying that the rapidity and power employed by Coalition Forces greatly aided in their decision.

I believe that the statue of Saddam Hussein is not the only one that will fall. It will be followed soon by other statues, in more than one Arab capital.

Well, one can hope....

Recently someone pointed out that all those Saddam statues and portraits all over the place are really nothing more than cynical invocations of "Big Brother Is Watching You." So watch your step -- we have eyes everywhere.... In short, they are part of a massive civilian control strategy, executed by a totalitarian thug.

Thanks for the great post, AmericanInTokyo.

"The stabbing of September 11 was not fatal to America, but it was fatal to Saddam Hussein and his regime. He did not understand that his only option was to arrange his surrender or his exile. He acted stubbornly and arrogantly. This is the end of a man, the end of a regime, the end of a phase."

AND NOW WE DANCE!

Thank you so much for this thread.
