Do we post the picture of the little Iraqi girl with her foot hanging by one tendon and shrapnel wounds all over her?

I think I'd prefer the old scone chopped off. Not painful for very long I imagine, 3 seconds? Less.

Shrapnel wounds, your family lying in gore all around you. Your TV all blown up and no roof.

I've got a spare aspro

Are they the same "precision strikes" that killed Saddam at least twice in 2003?

You talking about me?

Whatever it is Bush and co are promoting - with their gulags, their disdain for legality, their unilateralism, their gulags and fine definitions of what precisely constitutes "torture" - it sure as hell aint DEMOCRACY! America has confirmed every oppressed and affronted Muslim's worst fears: this IS a crusade! As the world goes down in one mad, raving fireball, may YOUR god help you!

What does behoove mean?

The US defied the world to invade Iraq, now the world must defy the US and push Bush back!

Hey, sounds like a slogan: PUSH BUSH BACK!

Beat that!

Thanks Tom, you're the only sane voice in this sorry list of liars, losers and wankers!

I feel soothed already.

Thanks Mr Beat!

How ironic - and scray! - that both Christian extremists and Muslim fundamentalists are now dicating terms to the entire world!

Dim Dumbya is clearly not the full quid and in dire need of a padded cell. Those suckhole PMs of the UK and Awe-strillia have compoundedv the problem by taking this geek seriously! Now we're all standing in it!

"Sources say there will not be a full offensive on Fallujah. Instead, US forces and their Iraqi allies will take the city section by section by clearing houses. The operation is intended to take no more than two weeks."

House to house combat....two weeks....yeah right

Closest to the pin on Fallujah -
we need a poll

US begins its biggest urban offensive since Vietnam with long-awaited Fallujah assault

"The People" have NOT spoken. The ignorant, the fearful, the acquisative and the hateful have spoken... for George W Bush and - in that subservient Aussie backwater - John W Howard. And Bin Laden is revelling in it! Like Bush and HIS evangelical fanatics, Osama YEARNS for that "clash of civilizations" we keep hearing about. As for the rest of us sane, secular normal folk who just want to raise our kids and live in peace... we are against BOTH these crazy idealogies!

The USA created Al Qaeda and nurtured fundamentalist muslim fanatics in order to draw the (former) Soviet Union into a protracted war in Afghanistan. The USA created Osama bin Laden and rubbed their hands in glee as Talibanists terrorised the SECULAR but pro-Soviet Afghan government of the day. In other words, the 2001 September 11 atrocities are a direct consequence of deliberate US foreign policy and now the whole bloody world is supposed to kiss Bush's skinyy white arse in thanks!

"The republican form of government may involve a limited democracy, where such rights are available only to a limited group of people. In some cases, a republic may be a dictatorial or totalitarian state."

wikipedia.org

The call for a referendum on Australia becoming a republic is back on the agenda.

Makes sense to me coz we surely don't seem to cow-tow to the Queen anymore.

We cow-tow to the Republicans voted in by the Yanks.

This next 4 years will be remebered as the end of western democracies and the rise of the western republics.

Poison the rodent!

I thought Bush called them combatantants?

Max! american voters have approved Bush's antics so you may as well stop whining and get on-side before they lock you up in Guantanamo as an enemy "combatant"... whatever the hell that means!

Orwell may have been 20 years out but basically he got it right: 2004 marks the start of the REAL New World Order, where lies are presented as facts, where evil is presented as good, and where war has no end.

The old good cop, bad cop routine? With the world as the bunny.

The civilised world mourns while Bush's greatest supporter celebrates: Osama BIn Laden has got what he always wanted!

Its rampant I tell you, this self serving double speak, rampant. Heck, what to do, what to do, what a fucken shit hole

Like his USA CEO JWH has and will do "whatever it takes" to cling to power

"The first time I noticed George W Bush was when he passed out in my bathtub at the Hyatt Regency in Houston. He was with a guy who had come to sell..."
"Look, I'm not going to put this next sentence on the record. Let's just say that 'a friend of mine' was buying cocaine. I have friends in Houston from all walks of life. Lawyers. Professional men. Bush was hanging around with this crowd of what you might call gilded coke dilettantes."

Pardon?

Are you ready for that 1950's crew cut!

Every move the Bush Regime has made so far has played right into the hands of Osama and his ilk. For gods sake dont vote for that lunatic and his greedy pyscho goon squad!

Your portraits are scaring me!

OK, OK!
So a few peole got killed in the process of liberating Iraq. But it would be a waste of their sacrifice and our brave soldiers if we were to stop now.
We must continue and liberate the entire Middle East!
Syria, Iran, Saudi Arabia!
Their people are crying out for the freedom their brothers have in Iraq!

Who was Saddam killing?

and lets do the math - he is purported to have killed 300000 in how many years?

And the Yanks and Aussies have killed how 100000 in how long?

Why didn't they just assasinate him and his most loyal followers and leave the rest alone?

And if that girl in the photo was killed by the Yanks, and you were the father or the brother...how would you welcome the invaders?

At least under Saddam you would had electricity and a house.

Sorry Jim

The report clearly states that the largest demographic consisted of women and children killed by air strikes. The terrorists want the invaders out; capice?

At least half of those killed have been killed by the terrorists in Iraq! How can you blame the strong leaders of the West for that?

Debka: Iraqi group kidnaps Polish woman Thursday, demands withdrawal of Polish force. In new video aired by Al Jazeera TV Wednesday, kidnapped aid worker Margaret Hassan appealed to Tony Blair not to send troops to Baghdad, withdraw army from Iraq and release Iraqi women prisoners.

If I was Australian I would be worried. Very worried.

Howard should be up for War Crime charges.

Howard, Bush and Blair join Milsevitch, Hitler, Stalin and co as mass murderers.

Well at least they dind't die with that madman Saddam in charge!

raspberry Cordial

More Howard lies.The LibNats lied throughout the election campaign about interest rates, they lied about their rosy economic forecast, but the truth is - as it always was - Australia is about to hit a brick wall. Go on Johnny, who will you blame this time? Latham? Terrorism? Or your wimpy Treasurer Costello? Aussies are fair dinkum dumb fucks to have been so sucked in!
