When Massoud Mazouri learned that the U.S.-led coalition had ousted Saddam Hussein from power on April 9, he hurried to Baghdad from his home in northern Iraq to set up an electronics business.

Capitalism is natural ... hehe ...

Perhaps you didn't read this part ...

The U.S.-led provisional authority has increased salaries twice for government workers, spreading disposable income around. It is paying $150 million per month for salaries from $1.7 billion in Iraqi assets seized by the U.S. government at the time of the 1991 Gulf War, a coalition official says.

Thanks for the ping, teldon. The last thread mysteriously disappeared. Trolls gone wild these days, huh? This kind of post is Commie-bait.

Since the collapse of Saddam's regime, police Officer Gailan Wahoudi, 31, has bought a new television, a refrigerator and an air conditioner. "It is a new freedom I never had before," he says

Freedom, ping!

 Thanks, Tonkin!

If you want on or off my Pro-Coalition ping list, please Freepmail me. Warning: it is a high volume ping list on good days. (Most days are good days).

No, no, Jim, it's not...

(Conservative by nature... Republican by spirit... Patriot by heart... AND... ANTI-Liberal by GOD!)

it's "...ANTI-Liberal by the GRACE of GOD!"

As in...

American by birth, Southern by the Grace of God!

Let's not forget God's grace, even as we nuke the trolls...

Be Seeing You,

Chris
