God bless and keep your son safe.

I was in Kuwait end of December and the Kuwaitis I talked to love Americans. Last week, a Kuwaiti girl (24 years old) went with me and signed the World's largest card supporting the American troops in Kuwait.

The Marines have just asked that the war be delayed until all the troops have been trained on how to deal with the flowers the Iraqi people will be throwing at them as the liberate Iraq. This is serious folks.

Precisely! They are not just surrendering conscripts, they are also intel assets to be debriefed.

This sounds odd coming from me, but these present/future POW's (non-Republican Guards) are the Iraqis that want to be liberated, not liquidated. These men will be the ones who go on to rebuild a new Iraq. Make a good first impression, US servicemen, and we could have another ally in the middle-east.

At least, one can hope.

Hot damn, this is a great country we live in!

One other story came out on the holes in the fence. Today, just before the UN bailed out, they were trying to figure out who went back and put gates on them. Gates wide enough to admit a tank.

I bet the French are already studying this incident in the hopes they can pick up some new techniques.

Now, aren't you ashamed of yourself? Don't you think that's hitting just a little below the belt?

Even Mark Twain, back in the day knew this. In his book "The Memoir's of Joan Of Arc" said that GOD searched high and low for a man to save France, but had to settle for a 14 year old girl.

thank you....you cant imagine what its like to know despite what you see on TV that people really do care for our troops. I took tons of picture from the rally in Cleveland and had them made into posters for each of them, hopefully I will have an address here soon to mail it out

It's going to be difficult explaining to the Iraqis that they aren't French.

You are correct.

There was an interesting documentary on Angel TV by Prophecy Watch showing aerial photos of Babylon and Hussein's palaces in the area.

It's incredible how much money he has dropped in building a socialist utopia for future occupation, yet claims their children are dieing because they have no resources. Hussein is such a lying hypocrite.
