Secretary Rumsfeld used to represent parts of our district in the 1960s. I think that he and his team have done a masterful job in defeating Iraqi forces quickly and decisively.

Temporary Secretary
Mister Marks Can You Find For Me
Someone Strong And Sweet Fitting On My Knee

And A Temporary Secretary Is What I Need For To Do The Job

We'll try to include Iraqi officers in our staffs. We will do everything we can to empower Iraqi security forces to stand up on their own and operate where they can alone.

The first war plan has failed because of Iraqi resistance. Now they are trying to write another war plan. Clearly, the American war planners misjudged the determination of the Iraqi forces.

The face of terrorism in Iraq is dead. Abu Musab al Zarqawi brutalized, tortured, and killed thousands of innocent people, forcing Iraqis to live in fear. The Iraqi people finally had enough, and gave up his whereabouts to the Iraqi security forces.

Afgani Chowkar-Karez Collateral Damage
Flashpoint Afghanistan
October 2001 U.S. gunships
machine-gunned cannoned
target remote farming village
Chowkar-Karez collateral
damage killing an estimated
93 civilians over successive days
a Pentagon official was moved
to respond we quote “the people
there are dead because we wanted
them dead”. U.S. Defense Secretary
humanitarian not Donald Rumsfeld
briefly commented “I cannot deal
with that particular village”.
Thus we scan rare cop out guide
on the World’s only Superpower;
to learn the first man to speak out
speaks of other powers, hints hidden
powers, supernatural forces, yes
it is true, there are dark forces
afoot in the world; which do not
want peace, which do not want
order in the Middle East, international
super-national Illuminati agendas.

Collectivity
A force exerted, some forces push it
And some oppose it. Pro-forces overcome
Or succumb to the opposing forces.
Thus successes or failures emerge.
In a team either you float or you sink.

Nonetheless, Article 5 makes clear that if an Iraqi civilian who is not a member of the armed forces, has engaged in attacks on Coalition forces, the Geneva Convention permits the use of more coercive interrogation approaches to prevent future attacks.
The administration needs to speak honestly with the American people. Exaggerating our progress in defeating the insurgency or in creating an Iraqi army paints a dangerous picture.

We are not utilizing the Iraqi oil for U.S. purposes. We are not asking that the Iraqi oil be used to pay our military expenses. We are asking only that the Iraqi oil be used to rebuild Iraq - that is, to rebuild Iraq for the Iraqi people.
