This has me steamed....
I couldn't find any water to wash the clothes," lamented housewife Amira Ali, 46. "The next few days we're really going to suffer."
It's is about damn time these Iraqis .......stop these kinds of attacks. Witnesses saw them set the explosives.......watched them do it.

I can't help but believe the Iraqis are sick of the terorists too- but are afraid of them.
But the fact that there was more leads turned in after the 2 spawn were killed leads me to believe they can grow some balls, given enough time
We need to broadcast that it is now their own people who are attackingthem. The Iraqis seemed pretty grateful to be rid of Soddumb
Plus when he is killed it will be a huge morale booster.

I will willingly donate my "personal" water.

Maybe it will dawn on "stupid Iraqi citizens" that they're making it harder on themselves by not turning the bad dudes in. Suffer!!!! or change!!

And those protests will be held by the liberal DEMS in this country!

"This resistance is not a reaction to the American provocations against the Iraqi people or to the shortage of services, as some analysts believe ... but to kick out the occupiers as a matter of principle,"Yep, cut off your own nose to spite your face. Smart thinking.
To: Ernest_at_the_Beach
A new group of resistance fighters has said they would battle the U.S.-led occupation whether or not it brings progress in rebuilding the country.Ya gotta admire the brilliance here....right?....Right?

True, the more they attack us, the longer we'll be in Iraq...but the advantage is that the more the terrorists take the war over into Iraq, the fewer of their resources are available for hitting us elsewhere.

"Note to Iraqis: We'll turn on your water when you turn in your terrorists."Heh -- I like it...
It's been a noble gesture on ours and the Brit's part, but these people don't seem inclined to passionately preserve and cherish their new freedoms, or appreciate the sacrifice America has made in giving them this second chance.
Ultimately, they just may be too genetically disposed to being absolute cowards and nitwits who deserve exactly what they wind up with (another raving despot?) after our troops have left this hell-hole.
To: F16Fighter
Ah....yes the hubris of empire. The British also complained a lot about ingrates. Nobody likes to be ruled for "their own good," not even Iraqis!

Hey, if it makes Bush look bad, you're all for it, right Willard?!
