do you remember 1968?

One of the most remembered photos from the US war in Vietnam. A South Vietnamese general executes a Viet Kong fighter in Saigon, during the North Vietnamese attack, known as Tet, after which the US knew it was losing the war. How many more thousands of Iraqis have to be killed until the ruling elite in Washington realize this simple fact? (Al-Safir, 10/21/06).

Gambler Bush to the US Congress:
Please, just let me play with these extra 21,000 soldiers. I may regain my losses
I promise this is the last time I ask for more troops.
(Baha Boukhari, Al-Ayyam, 1/30/06).
