Iraqi Shi'ites chant slogans denouncing Samarra's Golden Mosque bombing during a protest after Friday prayers in Baghdad's Sad'r city February 24, 2006. An emergency curfew for Friday's Muslim day of prayer helped quell sectarian violence that has killed some 200 people around Baghdad, keeping much of the Iraqi capital deserted as leaders work to avert civil war.

6. What a colossal mess the Bush administration has made of...
the world. It just keeps getting worse and they are now clueless as to what to do. I have the feeling Bush's trip to India will be a disaster for him. Maybe his eyes will finally be opened to what the world thinks of him.

9. These guys must have long lunch hours.
Again and again, we see crowds of Muslim protesters taking to the streets to rail against what they perceive as the latest outrage.

When I was in NYC and wanted to protest Bush, I had to do it on my lunch hour or after work.

Don't these people have jobs?

If they don't, that could be part of the problem.

11. Maybe that is why major change is possible in other places,
but not in America. They value money more than their freedom here.
