Negroponte in Fallujah with Khaki Body Armour and Mercs to Protect Him
Edited on Sun Nov-28-04 03:14 PM by leftchick


US Ambassador to Iraq (news - web sites) John Negroponte (C helmet) and Iraqi Minister of Industry Hajem al-Hassani visit the restive city of Fallujah. Negroponte stressed that January's landmark elections should be held on time as he toured the devastated streets of Fallujah in the highest-level visit to the city since the US-led offensive to root out rebels.(AFP/Mehdi Fedouach)

3. I suspect a big part of the war on Iraq was to give these middle-aged
has-beens and wannabes a chance to dress up and play soldier. Another perk, on top of the looting.
:puke:

6. I knew it wasn't really Allawai saying
that the elections "must" be held on time. It was his US boss.
