US 'sobered' by Iraq attacks (BBC Armitage in Baghdad)
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/3253943.stm

<snip>
During a news conference in the heavily guarded Baghdad compound, Mr Armitage admitted that there was a security problem in several major Iraqi cities, including the capital.

But he said he was "absolutely convinced we have a very solid plan to go out and get these people who are killing us and killing Iraqis".

Mr Armitage's comments came after his talks with the US administrator in Iraq, Paul Bremer, and senior Iraqi officials.

Mr Armitage also said Washington was engaged in discussions with a number of countries to send soldiers to Iraq next year, and he stressed America's intention to gradually hand responsibility for security over to the Iraqis.

1. Not Chimpy!

He's still drunk as a skunk and filled with testosterone every time he hears about another one of "his" soldiers getting killed for his glorification.
