As stupid as George W is, Iraq hasn't been a peaceful place in nearly 30 years. After the Shah of Iran was driven into exile, Iraq decided it would be a good time to attack a country armed to the teeth by the USA, lead by fanatics and with over 3 times Iraq's population. Over 1 million people died in that war. The invasion of Kuwait wasn't a good idea, either. In the meantime, Saddam used poison gas on the Kurds, crushed a massive Shitte 1990's rebellion with no mercy and had a secret police so brutal, they built rape rooms to violate every woman in their "enemies" family. Nobody knows how to slaughter Iraqis better than they do.

What about lighting some freakin' candles for the hundreds of thousands of innocent Iraqi's who have been maimed, mutilated & murdered because your president overreacted and retaliated against the wrong people?. How about some stupid candles for all the Central & South Americans murdered by your constant meddling & war-mongering in other people's affairs?. Stupid azzwipes.

Has there been any R'n'R? I think most comments and postings have been very respectful. You can put your axe away.

C'mon, let's hear more asshole comments about "moving on already" and "get on with your lives." I haven't seen enough on this site already today.
