Saddam: The death of a dictator

Through the bumbling of the U.S.-backed regime, justice becomes revenge, and a despot becomes a martyr.

I realize English is not your first language, but look up the English meaning of "dictator" before you go off on any more of your paranoid, half-cocked, anti-Semitic rants.

YEEEH-HAW! indeed

Georgie-boy, Fred, and other such fervent believers in 'military prowess' as the answer to all their problems:

Wait and watch.

Check out what your war-criminal leader GW Bush and his gang do to YOU when the next terrorist strike hits the US.

That is a matter of 'when' I'm afraid, not 'if'.

There is just no way your hero GW Bush (or even ten like him) or your military prowess (and even ten times your current military prowess) can prevent it, I'm afraid.

Directly after 9/11, GW Bush DID have a real opportunity to get the great majority of the worldwide Muslim community solidly behind a real war on terror. Check out the brilliantly argued article, "Avoid Osama's trap" , by Bernard Haykel, a New York University professor of Islamic studies - http://www.hinduonnet.com/thehindu/2001/09/25/stories/05252523.htm

Well, GW Bush and Gang rejected that path of wisdom and took THE ABSOLUTELY most foolish path he could possibly have chosen; but that has been his characteristic all along - witness his handling of an entirely internal matter, the tragedy of New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina.

And US citizens haven't seen through him yet???

YEEW-HAW, indeed, Georgie Boy!!

I must applaud your exceptional intelligence.

Do well. Don't worry. Be happy. For as long as you can.
