Eight Soldiers Dead in Car Bomb Attack-Iraq

Just heard it of Fox and Friends. I'll post info as they present.

Apparently, conflicting reports are, again, coming out of Fallujah.

There is confusion about whether all or some of the troops are being withdrawn.

[Are we getting into a situation where the right hand doesn't know what the left hand is doing in Iraq? A great stink is starting to emerge out of the Iraqi situation.]

[demlosers]

The Press is confused.

In Arizona ? Well, try to sell this as "ocean front property futures".

[robowombat]

Yes, actually it is. An organization named the Falluja Defense Corps commanded by a former Iraqi Army general officer is going to be given a shot at keeping the peace in Falluja (Ha Ha).

We had no training whatsoever," he said. . . . "I kept asking my chain of command for certain things... like rules and regulations. And it just wasn't happening," he said. . . . He said he never saw a copy of the Geneva Conventions - which govern the treatment of prisoners - until after he was charged. . . . The Army investigation confirmed that reservists at Abu Ghraib had not been trained in Geneva Convention rules.

Absolutely delightful. The naivete of anyone who really believes the United States was adequately prepared for this war is astonishing.

Personally I think the GREAT STINK was when Bush bought the idea that these people wanted democracy!!! But then that's another topic.

Prayers for their families.

I'm going to do my best not to whine today about my life. I'm still alive and there are boys who aren't today.

[txrangerette]

Which IS it??? Bush cooked up the
war in TX, before 9-11. He dragged
out the run-up for many months in
order to fake going to the UN.

No, no, no...

Bush rushed to war, no plan, just
made it up as he went along.

Any casualties, screwups, are his
& Rummy's fault, never the enemy
or local commanders.

Let's run away from Iraq & impeach
our CIC.

But for WHICH of the two opposite
accusations???????

We don't know.

But it's Bush's (& Rummy's) fault!

"I'm going to do my best not to whine today about my life. I'm still alive and there are boys who aren't today."

Well said.

**CNN now reporting 10 killed. Prayer for the families**

Oh my Lord ... Prayer heavenward <>

[boxerblues]

CNNs headline is misleading, 8 killed 4 injured in one attack, the other 2 killed are from a separate incident. Either way a lot of families are going to waiting for the knock on the door. Prayers are desperately needed for all those involved.

[happygrl]

Prayers are desperately needed for all those involved.

Amen.

Dear Lord, receive their souls and comfort their families.

There but by the grace of God go I...

Indeed, prayer is desperately needed. <><
