The US military now funds and arms sunni insurgents in Iraq in the hopes that they'll turn against Al-Qaida. The insurgents have also been given the power of arrest.

Good thing America has made such a revolutionary executive decision. That ol' Al-Quaida was getting too uppity! Some good old fashion supporting terrorism will put the fear of allah back into those rebellious towel heads!

They are also funding terrorist organizations(marked by the US themselves) to kill innocent civilians in Iran.

bush should be funding our own troops so they don't have to spend money out of their own pocket for body armor and medical supplies.

but this plan sounds much better.

"bush should be funding our own troops so they don't have to spend money out of their own pocket for body armor and medical supplies."

At one point there was a very small amount of soldiers without armor, but that is no longer happening. No soldier in the US military has to pay for their own medical supplies, armor etc. Thats just a lie.

Seymour Hersh was never more correct...

The enemy of my enemy is my enemy and my friend and my friend is my enemy to the other enemy friends that are allied to other friends of my enemies. Friend enemy... enemy friend....

Basically,could the U.S. administration be any more of a failure?

But all seize it, and all know it well.  For it is the definition before the act.  It is why and who and when and that t...
