Iraq Warplanes Request:Here We Go Again

The great peacemakers and warmongers in Washington are looking favorably on Iraq's request for a purchase of 18 F-16s. America's leaders rotate between war and peace because its good for business overall. Iraq is proposing an initial purchase of 18 in what could eventually total 96 warplanes. Iraq's leaders would rather spend money on planes than repair the infrastructure or help displaced people. The poor people of Iraq get no respect from their government or our government. It adds up to another victory for the military-industrial-complex. Iraq rearms, Iran responds, Israel responds, Turkey responds etc etc. and the US sells arms to all .

People of war should not be mourned when they die. They fulfilled their destiny .

Slum Landlord Israel Doesn't Like The Rent It Receives

Another week , another 30 or so Palestinians killed by the asymetrical response by Israeli Defense Forces. Israeli tanks, helicopter gunships and F-16's retaliate for largely impotent Palestinian rockets that land ever deeper into what is called Israel. Today the Israelis halted all food and aid into the Gaza. Evidently the "chosen" can do things that agressors in the Congo, Darfur, Kenya etc. can't do without some outrage by the governments of the world. Particularly absent is strong criticism and/or actions by Israel's stooge a.k.a. the United States. Israel should view the rocket fire from the Palestinians as the rent come due from Israel's illegal and immoral occupation of historic Palestine.
