Waiel Abdul-Latif, a member of former Prime Minister Ayad Allawi's party, said Monday that authorities found the numbers after al-Zarqawi, leader of al Qaeda in Iraq, was killed in a U.S. air strike on June 7.

Abdul-Latif did not give names of the officials. But he said they included ministry employees and members of parliament.

He called for an investigation, saying Iraqis "cannot have one hand with the government and another with the terrorists."

I'd sure like to have the folks on the other end surprised the way Zarqawi was.

The palastinians are completly insane. Islam is insane. There is no negotiating with them and no living on the same planet with them, with any peace.

Is it genocide to destroy a people who would destroy you?

Or is it, instead, the fruits of war?

Lets just say for one moment that there was a number back to the states...to the NY Times...what would you do or demand? Would the President order the arrest of the reporter involved? Would the Times defend the idiot as a act of freedom of speech?

Start thinking about these questions...because eventually we will kill one of these guys and they will have a number back to a journalist in the US. And if you think the last week or two have been kind of unsettling....think about the implications of the scenario I just offered. Sooner or later....it will happen.

Should we place the polio and smallpox viruses on the endangered species list?

The notion that we can't co-exist with Islam is nonsense. We've been doing it for hundreds of years, nearly all of it peacefully.

There is no reason why we can't kick their butts and return to the status quo.

Yup ~ he wasn't trying to escape as he was hauled away on a stretcher, just fixing up his calling list.

Of course he did...all types of media and assistance. Al-Jazeera, New York Times, Move-on.org, Barbra Streisand's agent, Ted Kennedy's lawyer...

You didn't get the memo? ;)

I suspect he did have press #'rs, and this would bring the NSA brouhaha by the press into perspective, eh?
