The Leash Lady

It is all right there. Tellingly, would you say? Indeed, the power of free information is new to the world. These images, unacceptable to the western world, even unconstitutional in the US, will bring down Rumsfeld, then the President and may well result in a withdrawal from Iraq.

Then where will Iraq be? The Leash Lady will be on late night TV. Another 155 mm shell with Sarin gas will wipe out the Interim Government and the Iraq UN Headquarters, and there will be civil war. You have not tried that yet. Think of it as a coming of age. No, or do you call it genocide? Will there be genital cutting? Or will there be ritualistic homicide by decapitation? Will you allow the Kurds to live?

Ah, but they are not terrorists. They are legitimately defending their homeland, against what? Is it a Mongol hoard invading to take your land? How naive of them to want to buy your oil. Would the countries that supplied Saddam during the sanctions forgive that debt? 87 billion spent on restoring your infrastructure of electricity, schools, water and food chain. Ah, but the Freedom Fighters keep blowing it up. There must be a strategy.

Tonight, I sang folk songs with a group of Russian singers from Siberia. We ended the evening in a circle arms entwined singing “Let there be Peace on Earth” I cannot believe that the Koran teaches nothing of peace, love and forgiveness. The Arabs are fierce fighters. You have to respect that. They give their lives. However, with murder they are blasphemous of their God. Maybe they should give peace, love and forgiveness to one another instead of hate and violence.
