Christmas Eve Combat

Good description of the history of unexpected casualties around Christmas AKA the recent suicide bombing in the barracks in Iraq.

1. The comparison between WW2,

which was a clear-cut war, with a REAL Casus Belli and NO bait & switch used car salesmanship, and this Bush Iraq Quagmire, defies comparison. By and large, the French, Dutch, and Belgians acted as though they were actually liberated. There were frequent instances of flower tossing and other tokens of endearment.

And the Quislings & collaberators were on the other side.

2. Yeah...

I found that article on a Conservative site. I think his history is based on the fact that Iraq a different war that what most Dems believe it to be. That is why I posted it on my forum.
