Here we go again!
The prison photo`s. Iraq again, I have to talk about this stuff, it`s important.
The abuse of prisoners is an outrage. And there`s more to come.
But this happens in most wars. It`s what humans do when they get frustrated,
and have been given the power. Donald Rumsveld was responsible, so he should resign.
He really should. That`s how politics work in a Democracy.
Can`t understand how even Democrats want to keep him.
The Iraqi fighting humans humiliate and abuse their prisoners too. But the notion
that the western soldiers are superior and of higher morals is shot to pieces.
There are animals on both sides. Although dogs would never do this.
I say again: we should get out of Iraq ASAP. Some of you disagree.
And I used to think too that it might be better to stay,
to prevent a civil war and to help the country adopt democracy.
But I`ve changed my position.
I believe now that there is no way we can help the people of Iraq.
In fact the situation is only getting worse.
Saddam was not just a cruel dictator, he also served as the lid on the jar.
With him gone, all the demons are free in Iraq. Not even the UN can fix that now.
We must get out.
Here`s another shot from last weekend. I`m a river dog, I love the river.
Have a fine week everybody, and let me know what you think.
