FLASHPOINTS: Robert Fisk talks about the 8 soldiers killed and the huge civilian toll One thing that Robert Fisk stressed is that there is very little concern in the US (both the general public and media) regarding the enormous death toll of Iraqi civilians especially at the hands of nervous US troops. This is probably due to the vicious stereotypes against Arabs most people in this country have internalized including the soldiers in Iraq....

US Policies in Post-War Iraq President Bush has requested an additional 87 billion dollars to help stabilize Iraq and Afghanistan. The funds -- equivalent to about one fifth of the U.S. 2004 defense budget -- would support military deployment and reconstruction efforts. The president made the appeal to the nation in his first public address since he declared an end to major combat operations in Iraq last May. He spoke amid growing criticism that he has failed to devise an effective post-war plan for Iraq....

Most likely they won't say anything at all about their own articles being wrong, or cast blame on someone else. Even here they're focusing in on Clark waffling in his statement. They may turn on him with their packlike mentality, but we'll have to wait and see. For now, thank GOD we don't have to email and post stories like crazy anymore to try to dispel...

RIVER: How does a typical raid by foreign troops feel. Iraqi describes raid on her neighbo One of them keeps an eye of the 'family' while the rest take a look around the house. They check bedrooms, kitchens, bathrooms and gardens. They look under beds, behind curtains, inside closets and cupboards. All you have to do is stifle your feelings of humiliation, anger and resentment at having foreign troops from an occupying army search your home...We constantly hear about families who are raided in the small hours of the morning.
