Have you ever wished you could contact an Iraqi personally

and tell him or her, "I think my president should be on trial for what he did to your country"? Jesus, I feel so guilty, I could spend hours apologizing profusely. When I voted for Bush (yes, I was that stupid), I never expected the US to go fascist.

After the war against Afghanistan, I started to catch on...WTF IS BUSH DOING??????? Then I got online and found out that between him and his daddy he killed way more Iraqis than Saddam ever did.

May Iraq forgive me. :(

a new reality special a la the Osbournes.

2. If you want to have a glimpse of what life is like

in Iraq right now, try this blog from River, a girl from Iraq.

I can't imagine what a horror life is like for the people who have to live under these horrible circumstances. This is becoming much worse than living under Saddam ever was.

4. That is Sasha Trudeau, son of the late Pierre Trudeau..

he went to Iraq prior to the invasion and remained until recently, staying with an Iraqi family. He has a documentary coming out very soon, don't know the date though.

He went the way he did expressly to cover the ordinary Iraqi and not the "glorious" invaders and their "embedded" sycophants.
