Officials: Policemen go on killing spree

BAGHDAD - Shiite militants and police enraged by massive truck bombings in Tal Afar went on a revenge spree against Sunni residents in the northwestern town Wednesday, killing as many as 60 people, officials said.
Right you are sir, no civil war here.
Apparently GW has never bothered to pay attention to history. Not only is there a civil war, there as always been one and there probably always will be. It is the nature of the beast. George the 1st got that, he was smart enough to not engage in a war with not a chance of a clear path to victory, let alone a stalemate. Sometime your dad is right…
On a different note, I was reading one of the stock web pages on yahoo. The subject being discussed was the up side to the Iranian capture/abduction of British naval and marine personnel. Hard to believe there would be an upside to this but I overlooked the potential rise in the cost of crude oil. What was I thinking?
Let’s face it folks to every horror and potential disaster there is always a silver lining. Though I am still waiting to see the upside of hurricanes that shattered the gulf coast. I must have missed that memo.
Speaking of anarchy and civil war, I read that permits for handguns is off the scale in New Orleans. Considering that a few folks may have actually gotten guns without permits, it would seem to me, this might just be an issue. Perhaps we are spending a lot of money protecting foreign interests and maybe not enough on our own. If charity begins at home them perhaps other things may fall into that arena. Perhaps we should send a division or two to The Big Easy and bring it to a peaceful resolution. But what do I know, just a thought.. clean up your own backyard…
