Stop me before I post pro-war again!
A Iraqi Guardian reader flames anti-war Brits. Along the way he notes that "every week [Hussein] executes people through the 'court of revolution', a summary secret court run by the secret security office. Most of its sentences are executions which Saddam himself signs." Is this an example of tw's <i>one power broker will do it and then blame it on Saddam's Sunnis - for political gain</i>?? No - the author claims that he's Sunni himself.
The New Republic rags on Blix: Blix reported this morning that, "At the meeting in Baghdad on the 8th and the 9th of February, the Iraqi side addressed some of the important outstanding disarmament issues and gave us a number of papers.... Although
no new evidence was provided in the papers and no open issues were closed through them or the expert discussions, the presentation of the papers could be indicative of a more active attitude focusing on the important open issues."
Italics mine. Read those italicized words. Translation: "They gave us nothing. But hey, at least they gave us something!"
And at this point, dear reader, if you ain't pissed, you ain't paying attention.
