Oh, the evil that we do....

The child died on Tuesday after U.S. forces struck back at militia fighters with 200-pound (90-kilogram) guided rockets that devastated at least three buildings in the densely packed district that serves as the Baghdad base for the powerful Mahdi Army militia.

While the US military is still occupying and destroying Iraq, and still killing little Iraqi children …. The US politicians back home are dreaming up new evil. They want Iraqis to pay for their own destruction!

War criminals and liars: House Democrats work on huge Iraq money bill


House Democratic leaders are putting together the largest Iraq war spending bill yet, a measure that is expected to fund the war through the end of the Bush presidency and for nearly six months into the next president's term.

Here are some more headlines from this week alone:

Hospital in Baghdad militia bastion damaged in US air strike

Sadr City bloodshed kills 925 Iraqis

37 killed as US troops battle militants in Baghdad

Several believed dead in US air raids in Baghdad

Iraq mass graves yield 100 bodies [These bodies are from bush times, not saddam times.]

Meanwhile, the American people are so uninformed and misinformed, they actually think that Sadr and his militia is funded and armed by Iran. Actually, it is the Iraqi army that is funded and trained by Iran – Hakim spend many years in Iran and his Badr Brigade was trained originally in Iran.

There is no major group in Iraq without blood on his hands – and while the Mahdi army may be religious fundamentalists, they are also nationalists who want the US occupation military out of there, and want their government free of US and Iranian influences.
