    Inmytree, I mean this with all respect, but this is hardly news. Several times a week they find murdered bodies in groups of 10-20 or more. This is standard fare for iraq, and has been for 3-4 years now.

    But hey, that new billion-dollar American embassy in Baghdad will be something, huh ??? Go team. Fucking pathetic......

    I know...I guess my rational for post was to keep this war and it's issue "fresh"... it just seems that some are forgetting about this conflict...and the fact there is absolutely no end in sight...

    Right... Kerry (or anyone else) would have put an end to sectarian violence?

    so you find it fucking pathetic that Iraqis continue to kill each and have zero regard for human life? or that the US is building an embassy ?

    Well, I'm not sure what I find more asinine - your snarky, not-so-clever inferences, or the fact that the American embassy in iraq has roughly a thousand people working in it, and only ten of them (yes, ten !!) speaking Arabic (CNN.) No wonder why U.S. intelligence sucks.

    Dude, lets cut to the chase. Iraq is a disaster, due in no small part to the invasion. To divorce yourself from America's part in it, or from the self-serving interests of the U.S. gov't, is lunacy. Repeatedly the U.S. gov't says it has no real interest in iraq, other than getting rid of Saddam (or choose one of the other 2 dozen supposedly innocuous reasons) - and yet, it spends a billion dollars on an embassy and talks of setting up several semi-permanent bases in that country. The U.S. has more moves than a $10 hooker - what it says, and what it does, are two totally different things.

    And speaking of human rights, respect for human life, or the rule of law, I think the U.S. should shut the fuck up while its relatively ahead.

    I didn't mean to sound critical. I know, its crazy whats going on over there. there's such a drumbeat of death and despair from there, I'm not sure what to think any more.

    I'll tell you this, every time I see another american soldier dying in Iraq, or another civilian, I can't help but get angry over how this all started with this current admin.... People are dying because of a pack of lies.

    well we know how it's been going with us there for all this time how about we see how things go with us not there ,i don't think it could hurt maybe even save a few AMERICAN lives not that AMERICAN lives are worth more but just to let them fight their own fights.

    If we leave the fighting can end. Like all fighting, it will end with a winner. The United States remains to ensure there is no winner. The US is doing nothing for Iraq other than ensuring this tragedy will continue.

    wow what is snarky or not-so-clever inferences? and how is your made up number of 10 arabic speaking people working on the embassy relevant at all ?

    Iraq was a disaster before we got there.

    I agree.

    seldom right and wrong again. the US has said many times it has interest in Iraq. Bush recently made some comment about how he would like it to be the south korea of the middle east. (or something like that)
    And speaking of human rights, respect for human life, or the rule of law, I think the U.S. should shut the fuck up while its relatively ahead.
    right right. there is a mass grave outside my moms house, 30 miles west of chicago. thats not public knowledge, so lets keep that between us.

    Civil war has been part of the evolution of virtually every nation. That would be a battle with a purpose. One necessary to bring peace.

    What we have now is a superior nation overseeing an extermination of all it finds objectionable and expendable.

    The United States had a bloody civil war - remember? i suppose to avoid that - we'd have been better off if some great power controlled everything and used supeerior force to exterminate whichever side showed signs of winning?

    you fucking people need to shut up and watch more paris hilton. iraq is NOT a failure... it is an amazing success!!! Halliburton's stocks have tripled and the executive branch of the government has reached an otherwise unattainable power. stop bitching and invest in Halliburton and you too can be on the winning side. how can anyone look at these profit margins and call it a failure? idiots.

    in a civil war eveyone is an insurgent.

    Iraqis are the ones losing their lives and homes in this American war on their soil.

    yes, Halliburton is stalling due to the falling stock of the US President and Vice President. Be patient though.. someone willing to spend that kind of money will develop new little lies enough to carry enough electoral votes.
