Peace in Iraq



Or perhaps that should be Fuck Up in Fallujah? At last the US have finally worked out a properly detailed plan for controlling Iraq and pacifying the 'liberated' population: bomb the hell out of everything and everyone. Once they're all dead there won't be any more pesky insurgents. Shame about all the civilians, but hey, omlettes and eggs as they say (although personally my omlettes tend to be yummy breakfast food which in no way entail the mass slaughter of civilians). Apparently they go the idea after reading a classic Judge Death story in Judge Dredd - all crime committed byt he living, therefore life is forfeit from all...



Meanwhile Blair has publically backed the US forces 'strategy'. What strategy? Getting shafted by having no plan for post-war Iraq? Getting involved in somethign they never should have been in the first place? This from the man who was savaged by many, including his own party, for backing Bush and Israel's plans last week. Just before that lead to a horrendous mess and government sponsored assissnation. But here he goes again. And the good part is that he says now he will be staying on and running for PM once more. 'Not for turning' 'On and on and on' the unflinching backing of right-wing American politicians who destablise the world - is it just me or is Blair turning into Margaret Thatcher? Is this some political equivelant to Stevenson's Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde?
