The Battle of Baghdad: Perspectives for the Surge

The surge has been presented or perceived as the last US battle. Whatever the outcome, the Iraq people will not stand for any more projects from the US. There are no more chances. The US is gambling away its last reserves of support, trust and belief. When it fails, every section of society will turn against it.

The Constitution ~ What The Heck Does It Really Say Anyway? Part I

The Chinese invasion of 1949 was a flagrant land grab and violation of international law.
