Richard Clarke just note there have been 528 suicide bombers in Iraq

[Chicago Democrat]

since we got there! Nearly all are 'foreign' mostly Saudi fighters. I hadn't realised the number was so high.


Isn't interesting how we get so excited when one happens in say England, but it doesn't even register with most people that it happens every day in Iraq?

[Marnieworld]

1. As Will Pitt said when the London incident happened...

That's just what Iraqis call "Tuesday."

[ArkDem]

2. Could it be because it's Never happened in London ...........

just a guess.

[Kathy in Cambridge]

3. It also never happened in Iraq until we got there

[ArkDem]

4. You are right about that! The US is pretty much the cause of everything

that is wrong on the earth.

[DistressedAmerican]

5. Think you mean "on the earth". We are mainly fucking up the surface

and those that dwell there, including Iraqis and Londoners!

Although we sure are trying to suck the oil out from below at a record pace!

[ArkDem]

13. What you said.

[bpilgrim]

6. going wrong in Iraq, no doubt

but they aren't to blame for 'everything' silly :evilgrin:

peace

[Kathy in Cambridge]

7. Don't paint me with that broad brushstroke

typical lame-ass assumption that liberals are part of the 'hate America' crowd. I love my country, but this government was wrong to go into Iraq. Don't you agree?

[ArkDem]

14. What are you talking about? I didn't paint anything. Methinks

thou doth protest too much!

[CatWoman]

9. there have been plenty of terrorist attacks in Europe

just a few years ago, London was bombed on a frequent basis.

Remember the IRA?

[ArkDem]

16. Not by suicide bombers. The IRA never cared that much

for virgins.:evilgrin:

[indepat]

8. Since there is no cause and effect, we can assume 528 suicide attacks

would have occurred in Iraq since the time of invasion had there been no invasion and occupation, to wit: surely none of this lies at the feet of those who invaded and occupied.

10. i saw al franken's show on sundance last night

one of his guests was mia bloom who is a professor at a midwestern college, a middle east terrorist expert and a consultant for homeland security in nj. she has just written a book about suicide bombers. she said that 60-70 percent of the iraq insurgents are saudi. i think she said 10% are iraqi. saudi arabia does nothing about this because they'd rather have saudi terrorists fighting 'over there' than in their own country (sound familiar?).

if you get a chance to hear or see her interview, i would recommend it. she was very credible.

btw, rc is on frankel tonight on sundance.

19. Yup, I listen to the radio show which is 3 hours (I usually miss alot)

then the put together 1 hour for sundance each night. The above quote is from that interview.

[ellenfl]

20. correction 60-70% of suicide bombers, not insurgents, are saudis. eom

[madrchsod]

11. ya the"brave fighters" in iraq

decided to blow up a bunch of kids getting candy from the the evil christians. "on and on it goes where it stops no one knows". it`s a fuck`n "ball of confusion"

[Proud2BAmurkin]

12. That suggests there's an UNLIMITED SUPPLY of angry Islamists

being produced by Idiot Son and his war

[Chicago Democrat]

18. Logical observation

depressing , but logical

[Just Me]

15. Terrorist acts have also doubled. This administration SUCKS!!! n/t
