some thoughs

 
playing with fire


lately we got the new that the US army killed 56 "terrorists" that were trying to ambush them in the locality of Samara.
funny as
-there s no bobies except civilians
-even a colonel of the US army denied that they have killed "terrorists"

so i have heard the explanation that there was a small gun explosion , or tires dunno what , the US soldiers that were so stressed began to shoot on everything moving around. As a result they have killed 8 civilians. There were no ambush at all.
nice way to liberate people by killing them :s

Now after playing with fire , i m wondering if the US folks will realise that the arabic world were not against them as a general but were against them because of a non billateral equilibrium btw their policies with israel and the palestine. Morever i m wondering if they are understanding why even surveys made in europe makes the US appearing as a bigger threats then countries like North Corea or Iran.

Besides all that , the most funny thing is that even if they would like to retreat from Iraq, they cant retreat as most of the governments of countries supporting them in the Gulf would be overthrown

and if they are staying in Iraq , if they are really applying this democratie concept they were talking about , we would get the establishment of an islamic republic that would be shiit and arabic , contrary to Iran , therefore a bigger threat to theses gulf countries pro US

therefore they decision of making the war was a bad one and it would have been more intelligent to use pacific means to reach the result of overthrowing saddam which was as far as i know from few people involved in the latest discussion btw the US administration and the iraqi regime possible

i would finish this note by saying the following :

first of all i got ironic laugh when the general of the US army sanchez was stating that the number of attacks decreased by 30 percent that month , as far maybe it decreased by they are more efficient

second of all theses are personal thoughs about that situation
