U.S. Transfers Sovereignty to Iraqi Govt.

By TAREK EL-TABLAWY Associated Press Writer

BAGHDAD, Iraq (AP) -- The U.S.-led coalition transferred
sovereignty to an interim Iraqi government Monday, speeding
up the move by two days in an apparent bid to surprise
insurgents who may have tried to sabotage the step toward
self rule.

Completely a symbolic move. Iraq doesn't have a military
willing to fight nor a police force strong enough to enforce
rule. Internal security will be our
responsibility...probably for the next ten years or so.

When our "illustrious" president entered us in this conflict
he laid out 3 reasons for war:
1. Iraq had weapons of mass destruction - WRONG!
2. Iraq aided and harbored Al Qaeda - WRONG!
3. Iraq posed and immenent threat to the U.S. - WRONG!

Now if you notice in his recent speaches he doesn't even
mention any of these topics. What he now says is we entered
Iraq to rid the world of a ruthless dictator who was
butchering his own people. Ok, so lets say this is the case
(which we know it isn't) and now we are "protecting" the
world from "evil" leaders; why just attack Iraq? What about
North Korea, Iran, Syria, Sudan etc. ?

Mr. Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, and Wolfowitz should suit up and
go fight there own war. Bunch of morons!

Hey Bri-Bri..... It is the terrorists doing the fighting!
Not the iraqi civilians!

First you guys are all pissy because "The job was not
finished" last time (Along with Iraqi civilians tortured and
murdered!)

Now the job is being finished and Iraqi civilians are given
a chance for a life that Mexicans are putting their life in
danger to get here crossing the border through the desert
and you guys WHINE & ***** ???????

What the f*ck!!!!!!!!

Fox must be behind on the latest US military position on
who's fighting them. I suggest that you contact Halliburton
and arrange to take one of those truck driver jobs in Iraq
that they pay $8 to $10 thousand a month for doing. Get
yourself a satellite phone and call us when you're attacked
and or captured. Let us know if the attackers are Iraqi
civilians (that includes demobilized Iraqi soldiers) or if
they're non-Muslim foreigners. Oh, and when they behead you,
try not to squeel like a stuck pig. Remember---the Iraqis
are thrilled that you came to liberate them and help rebuild
their country.

Many of us didn't think the first war should have been
fought to begin with. Remember, Saddam was Rummys man.

"Finished"? Ho ho. I guess that depends on how you
define "sovereignity". I guess that would be when
another nation has control of your police, military,
finances and media (among others), and more or less
chose who even got to be picked to be on the "governing
council". (It does seem like Iraq was a sovereign nation
up to about 19 March, 2003.)

We'll be there for ages - even Wolfowitz is starting to
see that. Funny how Rummy and company mocked the generals
(such as Gen Shalkashvili) who said that we'd need far
more troops to do the job effectively. Maybe they were
right? <http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A61943-
