Amen!

It doesn`t matter what the pussyfooted politicians say about withdrawing the troops in June, spanish soldiers in Iraq say that they are doing an important mission, and DON`T want to leave, even at this moment, when their bases are in cities that are current hot spots.

Damm politicans, they cause more soldiers deaths than enemy bullets

My bad, spelling was Kufa (not related to Kut). On the other hand it was Al Yazira, so who knows what they are trying to say?

TP: what does the Iraq war have to do with the war on terror??

Bush should have concentrated on Afghanistan and Al Qaeda worldwide instead of being obsessed with destroying the guy who wanted to kill hid daddy.
