Iraqi woman MP killed in Baghdad
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/middle_east/4489857.stm
A Iraqi woman MP has been shot dead by suspected insurgents on the doorstep of her home in Baghdad.
Lamiya Abed Khadawi, a member of former Prime Minister Iyad Allawi's coalition, is the first MP killed since elections at the end of January.

Police said gunmen knocked at her door and shot her when she answered it.

The strike came as the chairman of the US joint chiefs of staff, Gen Richard Myers, warned that Iraqi militants remain as strong as a year ago.

1. When was the last time Myers
took a walk around Baghdad? Mr. Do Not Disturb me on 9-11, doesn't want to know what's really going on. Then he might have to do something about it.

4. Are Dems and the Media pussies? One road to the airport hasn't been
Edited on Wed Apr-27-05 09:18 AM by dArKeR
secured in two years. No one can even drive to/from the airport safely. I bet you Wolfowitz, Rumsfeld, Rice... not one person from America has driven that road. I bet they take a helicopter as soon as they land at the airport or land very far away at another airport then fly to wherever their lying feces whore media stunt is.

Take a walk, you can't even ride in an armored vehicle. Baghdad used to be a beautiful friendly and safe city. Imagine it something like Seattle (minus the ocean and hills). I've had friends who'd been there in the 80s. And look at what the Repukes have done to it!

Dems are pussies! aWol, Frist, Delay... wasting America's time, resources and money on Schivo, Fillibuster, attacking Federal Judges... while the world and American burns. Oil, Federal deficit, no health insurance, crumbling roads and bridges, crumbling schools, lack of materials in schools, wasting our people, materials and money in Iraq...

Portland lays-off 210 teachers because of no money and Indiana Gov. (aWol's budget director who stood for cutting taxes) says Indiana has no money and says he will raise taxes.

The Airbus A380 takes off and the Space Shuttle hasn't flown in 5(?) years? (I'm surprized aWol didn't order it shot down!)

No Dems/Media talking about what use was Vietnam on the 30 year anniversary of the lying whore butchering of Vietnam.

5. And the Assembly is going out today
and won't be back until May 8. The PM designate still has not formed a government. He only has about 10 days left.

6. you'd never know fighters were staging 50 or 60 attacks a day. [msm sux]
Despite nearly 140,000 U.S. troops and a similar number of Iraqi forces, guerrillas have the same capability to attack as they did a year ago, staging 50 or 60 attacks a day, Myers said.
