April 7, 2004, They Hate Us for our Edom
Perhaps its some other kind of cheese that stinks to high heaven-- but as predicted on this very blog, the heavy hand of collective punishment has reared its ugly head, as American helicopter gunships fired at a mosque in Fallujah, killing at least 40 Iraqis. Get the picture? Its this sort of thing that tends to result in bus-bombings in Jerusalem or Tel Aviv or Haifa. Well, the American military has decided to employ similar tactics. Again, boys and girls-- this is shoot first, ask questions later. Will this result in a rather nasty and inevitable backlash? Time will tell-- but I think you know where I'm coming from...
We are not in control of huge parts of Iraq, and we are making it clear that all we will do is continue to blow things up. There is no question-- none whatsoever-- that as of 7 April 2004, the place is in semi-disarray, and a "sovereignty transfer" of the American-election-dictated June 30th deadline will be handing over an illegitimate occupation to an illegitimate puppet interim authority (in the eyes of many, if not most, Iraqis). That's a formula for... more bad sheet falling on the 100,000 U.S. troops we will have to leave in Iraq AFTER 30 June.
Well, the President can think about this in Crawford, where he will be (duh) undisturbed by this, or any other affairs of state. The National Security Advisor will be consulting with her fashion consultants on what to wear to the 9-11 Commission hearings late tomorrow (where, hopefully, the Good Friday holiday, the Pope's message, that sort of thing, will drown out the post-testimony spin until Monday, or at least the Sunday talk shows).
In short, all is right with the world. If you are worth at least $100,000,000, I suppose.
Comments
The thing that's also happened in the last few days is that apparently a fair proportion of the Iraqi police we trained and equipped joined the rebels first chance.
This pretty much destroys the whole Bush plan for transfering authority. George Will noticed.

I am in a moral quandry.
My friend searches for http://detectives.any1in.us/peoplefinders.html peoplefinders on google to screen potential roommates.
He found any1in.us , but did not visit.
I, on the other hand, searched for http://www.any1in.us/spybots.html spybots and found any1in.us.
I went there and found that http://cheating.any1in.us/infidelity.html infidelity were easier to find than on google.
Should I tell him that his potential roommate is a http://detectives.any1in.us/foster.html foster ?
