I wonder how many people we have murdered in Najaf today?

the bushgang put all reporters out of Najaf.

BAGHDAD, Iraq As fighting resumes between U-S forces and Shiite militants, Iraqi police have ordered all journalists to leave the holy city of Najaf.
The order doesn't specify consequences of violating the request. But journalists say the police told them any reporters remaining would be arrested.

Police also told them cameras and cell phones would be confiscated -- and that all cars coming into the city will be searched.

Under the same order, all protesters have been told to leave the city.

The ban would mean the only news coverage of the ongoing fighting in Najaf would come from reporters embedded with the U-S military.

U-S military officials aren't commenting.

I wonder if we are murdering with anything nuclear? or maybe that crowd control noise that is deadly? the bushgang has been anxious to try them out.

4. It will be years before we find out what is going on there this very day
And it is safe to assume that the news won't be very good.

5. Just making room for WalMart and civilization.
The survivors will be taught the joys of liberation and democracy at the point of a gun.

6. I dread the karma we are building now
Payback will come, when it does people won't know why, and there will be another round of patriotic fervor to kill some ragheads, and the spiral will go on.
