We will not tire, we will not falter, and we will not fail!
The Fourth Infantry Division has rolled into Baghdad, and will take over garrison duty from the Marines.
Marines searched the Palestinian Hotel in Baghdad for weapons and individuals "not friendly to the United States."
Questions have arisen as to whether Syria is harboring elements of the defunct Iraqi regime; UK Foreign Secretary Straw urged Syria to cooperate with the United States on this question.
The United States has cancelled the deployment of the 1st Cavalry Division to Iraq and will only send elements of the First Armored.
Airplanes and carriers are slowly being released from duty in the Iraqi area.
A CBS/NY Times poll finds the President's job approval rating is at 73%, up from 59% the week before the start of the war. Most telling - a full 61% of the members of the Criminal Party support his performance.
And we will not let the victims of the attacks on New York and Washington, nor the brave members of our Nation's military who have given their lives to protect our freedom, die in vain!!

AMERICA’S WAR ON TERROR – Day 582
The news as reported in The Washington Times:
[Note – All links go to The Washington Times’ website.]
1. White House: “We won.”
[Pretty much sums it up.]
2. The American message to Syria – continue your current activities and you face sanctions.
[The United States is continuing to focus on the region where terrorists are born and bred. Good!]
U.S. tells Syria it's flirting with sanctions
3. Opposition groups in Iraq are intending to establish an interim authority in Baghdad “as soon as possible.”
[I wonder if “opposition group” is the right term anymore – opposed to what? Saddam is gone.]
Opposition in Iraq plans governing authority
4. Looting is on a downward trend in Iraq.
[There’s probably not much left to loot.]
Looting sees start of 'downward trend' in Iraq
5. Foreign guerillas are seen as a threat to the US military in Iraq.
[Message to Syria – get this under control, or you might be next.]
Foreign guerrilla fighters seen as threat to allied forces
6. Now that we’ve won in Iraq, the Bush Administration intends to strongly push its anti-tax package.
[Good! Let’s have the military victory followed up with a fiscal victory!]
Bush turns attention to his domestic agenda
7. The Washington Wizards are looking at the end of their cash cow; Michael Jordan is set to retire, again.
[True – people will pay to see Michael, they won’t pay to see the rest of the Wizards.]
Wizards bid farewell to financial slam dunk
We shall not rest until we have cut a swath 60-miles wide through the entire left - taking all that is before us with us as we go. We shall leave nothing to the enemy that may be of value to him. We shall show him that he may count on nothing and will be able to keep nothing, not his spirit, not his soul, not that upon which he shall feed. We shall not cease until the moment we have rent through their entire land and have arrived at the sea, with our glorious victory upon us.

Now you have the info, go support the United States of America!!!
Hi Kassie! It's always good to see a friendly face.
I feel that a big weight has left my shoulders now that the war is grinding down. I think others feel that way too. There were very few posters yesterday. Somedays we pass that number of posts in just the first hour and a half.
Wait a minute. Hold on there. But, we're supposed to be turning our sights on North Korea. We're making threatening noises toward Korea. Mr. Kim told us so.
Somebody better inform the Pentagon.
