Wave em down - 17 POOF
"We fight today because terrorists want to attack our country and kill our citizens, and Iraq is where they are making their stand. So we will fight them there, we will fight them across the world and we will stay in the fight until the fight is won."
That was an exerpt from Mr. Bush's speech last night. The Iraqis must love the US so much that they will allow their country to be the battlefield to protect Americans.
On other soil, it is unknow what happened to the 17 US service members are now presumed dead after their US Chinook helicopter in Afghanistan was missled down. The Taliban gives themselves credit for this. A representative of theirs reported to the AP immediately after the heli went down.
Tuesday's crash came after three months of unprecedented fighting that has killed about 465 suspected insurgents, 29 U.S. troops, 43 Afghan police and soldiers, and 125 civilians. I may have to start a new Afghan blog.
