Free kibbles

Here's the kind of news you don't read in the US. Liberal British paper calls the defeat of Al Qaeda in Iraq one of the War on Terror's most spectacular victories. I wonder what Americans who are invested in defeat will say. UAE cancels Iraqi debt and sends an ambassador to Baghdad, the first Arab country to do so. Veterans in 527 group plan to run multi-million dollar advertising campaign reporting on our success in Iraq. Good deal, because that's the only way the general public will hear about it. Strike on Iran could prompt Iranian retaliation in Iraq, leading to an Iraqi civil war. This misleading headlines says US removes uranium from Iraq, but the article says the Iraqi government sold the uranium to a Canadian company.

Iran must really be feeling the heat because they've threatened to shut down the Straights of Hormuz again. I doubt the Mullah's government would last 2 weeks if they did.

Israel successfully tests missile interceptor.

US did not stop the South Koreans' mass killing of political prisoners to keep them from joining the enemy during the Korean war. I guess this is supposed to make us look bad. Shame on us for not fighting the South Koreans at the same time we were trying to stop the North Koreans, Chinese and Russians. This is another case of looking for and highlighting on some imperfection in America in an attempt to keep us from remember the overwhelming great things we should focus on.

In the wake of Uribe's rescue of 15 hostages from FARC, European and Latin American liberals criticize Uribe for being to close to President Bush. That says a lot about the leftists.

Ancient tablet predicts coming of messiah who will rise from the dead after 3 days. This fits the theory the Jesus knew all about the prophesy and orchestrated his following of it. Of course it also fits the theory that he was the son of God, so I don't think this will change anything.
