Come on folks - let's get off the idea that the elections were something legitamate. When things are going on like this, it's obvious the elections are made up to keep the soldiers feeling like they're fighting for a real cause, keep us quiet and feeling like we're such a nice group of democratic folks, and shut up when they come and ask for our children.

A silence like the tomb's has descended on what happened during that assault on Fallujah last November, led by US occupying forces, flanked by Kurdish peshmergas, and Israeli military advisers. In Fallujah, no Abu Musab al-Zarqawi was found—the pretext for the attack—but of the 300,000 Fallujah residents only 15,000 remain. The rest have disappeared or have fled. And with some of these Sgrena had an appointment.

If the dots connect, the "Salvador option" is not a "debate": it is already operational. Before proceeding to the death-squad phase of terrorizing civilians, uncomfortable witnesses must be removed—humanitarian workers like Margaret Hassan and journalists like Baldoni and Sgrena, and others.
