And not enough urine has been spread in the right places . . . >From my perspective they should have nuked the places, and let God sort them out. Too many of our innocents died, too many people through out the world have taken advantage of our generosity, and have bitten the hand that fed them the last 100 years. They confuse generosity and kindness with weakness. Perhaps the anti-Americans have a good idea and we should just shut down our borders, chase the immigrants and illegals out, and cut off foreign aid and trade. But what do I know, I'm just an amateur photographer who rides a Harley, carries a Colt .45 (especially when he's out at night with 10K worth of cameras), and who likes his old Leica cameras about as much as his old guns and scooters. I'm sure a lot of the professional photographers have got all the solutions to the problems of the world, and as soon as we fire all the professionally trained military men and the professional trained politicians, and put the artists in charge it will all get so much better through out the world. . . yeah, sure . . . real soon now . . . I'm going to go chat with my son and look over some more of his Baghdad pictures, he's got some interesting tales to tell about being there for the last year . . . . . . . Those of us who've worn the uniform know what I mean . . . Later - Norm ***************************************** Message: 4 Date: Wed, 08 Jun 2005 16:35:23 -0400 From: "B. D.

Sucked in by the stellar WH PR machine? No. I gather you haven't heard of the Pentagon report in which it was acknowledged that there was at least one incident in which urine was "accidentally" gotten on a Koran? Yes, 12 people died during rioting, which is very unfortunate. Now, how many people have died during interrogation by U.S. authorities?
