Two US soldiers killed in Iraq
BAGHDAD (AFP) - Two US soldiers were killed and three others wounded in separate rebel attacks.

One soldier was killed and three wounded when their armoured vehicle was struck by a roadside bomb near Habbaniya, west of Baghdad, the US military said Wednesday.

"Two soldiers received leg injuries, one received a head injury and one received internal injuries. One soldier later died from the wounds," it said in a statement.

Another soldier was killed south of Baghdad by small-arms fire.

1. Add two more to the pile...

Grass Bush

Pile the bodies high in Austerlitz and Waterloo Iraq
Shovel them under and let me work--
I am the grass; bush; I cover all.

And pile them high in Gettyburg Baghdad
And pile them high in Ypres and Vedum Mossoul and Habbaniya

Two years, ten years, and passengers ask the conductor:
What place is this?

I am the grass bush.
Let me work.

2. This certainly isn't bad news to bush's base
More dead American Soldiers? Well, they voluntarily signed up and they'll get a nice funeral and a loved one will get a flag. Dead American Soldiers are of absolutely no concern to those who support bush's base. They'd probably die in a car wreck anyway.

6. Where is all this good f**king news that the righties keep spouting
How many deaths are enough?
This is going to be one tough ship to right. Stupid PNAC mofos.
I am seriously tired of trying to find any good there. It is a total disaster. Let's just proclaim that and get the hell out with the UN's help.
:argh:
