Post the pictures of the part of Fallujah that is 'returning to normal'
as Bush said today. Someone please post these pictures. Surely we have some embeds who can show us what Al-Jazeera won't show us: the dancing Iraqis, the parts of Fallujah returning to normal, the Iraqis who are happy that we are there. I will settle for even the Kurds who are happy.

8. Once again it's that science fiction novel stuff taking place
Did you catch that the "Cease Fire" never ended??????????? What part of cease and fire do you not understand?

All they have to do is say it to make it so.

I say Bush is going to be fired. What part of fired do you not understand?

When they control the language, they control reality. Take it back.

9. Maybe it's those neon green bombing videos that are normal
for them. I hope someone can smuggle out pictures of what really is happening and Al Jazeera or some other independent news source airs them globally, then we'll find out how "normal" things are.
