Hello Siun – the news from GG just makes me sadder and sadder – I am curious what will happen for the million man demonstration on 4/9. I am really afraid that we just flatten Sadr City and all who remain. Keep up the good work – now that i have registered I hope to visit more often

Wexler and others in Congress are asking for your questions for Petraeus.

Write your congressperson with a question you want them to ask Petraeus this week.

I wish I was smarter, better, nicer in every way.

Siun, you do an incredible job and I so appreciate what you do to enlighten all of us.

I want to do much more to stop the madness.

Thank you.

I guess we must move on, but my heart is heavy.

Until and unless we get our foreign policy honest and correct, we cannot put our own house in order.

maybe it is collective punishment because Cheney wants ~~Chalabi~~ Maliki / al-Hakim to have control of the spigot - and would be willing to take on Sadr City on their behalf -

but it could also be there are still enough first string dunderheads at the Pentagon who somehow think they have a peahen hope of controlling Sadr City and are attempting it in anticipation of Congressional testimony

so you’ve “softened it up” with your aerial campaign - there are up to 2 million people in Sadr City ferchrissakes, now what ?!?!?

I am a cspan junkie.

I like watching all of the inaction/action.

I think it was my duty while I was otherwise occupied.

For reasons beyond my control, I did not watch that testimony and I am horrified.

I wish and hope that this gets out to everybody in this otherwise busy and largely somnambulent USA.

Thank you Selise.

Start tonight Laura. Print up an indictment of the Republican Party and how they are dangerous to the health, safety and welfare of families and the nation at large. There are innumerable examples of their hypocrisy, greed, callous disregard, authoritarian anti-democratic mindset. Expose them and their failed conservative ideology for what it is, a sham and a disgrace. Put up ten copies on light poles, information kiosks, courthouse and church doors. If everyone began doing the same the walls would come tumbling down.

Imagine what it would look like if each of us posted a youtube to the Iraqi people telling them we know we are committing war crimes, we are sorry and we are working to stop it. IMAGINE!
