Occupation of Iraq finished?

Post by . ._ »

Is there peace in Iraq, or something? I haven't heard of any American casualties in the news for a long time.

Does the media think it's boring now, and not report anything?

Inquiring minds want to know!

All conspiracy theories are welcome.

I think the nuts were out of explosives for a while, but they're back in business now.

are you joking, you should've seen the car bomb that went off today while the Americans were pushing this vehicle off the road with their hummer. Some reporter caught the whole thing and it was aired today. Saw it while wasting precious hours today at an FBO.

My yahoo.com news shows at least two US (uh, ahem, "coalitition") military casualties (such a nice sanitary word) today.

What a mess the US has gotten itself into.

Yes the Americanization of Iraq has been completed. Everything has taken on an infidel flavour, even the television.

That footage of the car bomb going off as it was being pushed off the road was pretty wild!! Must have been hell in the HumVee.

OK, maybe I'm dreaming, or haven't been watching american TV enough.

I posted a thread a while ago, thinking that when the total american casualty count got over 1500, it would be in the news. Not a peep.

Here's a website to keep informed. (Not that we can do anything about it. :roll: ) Sad stuff.

Yes the occupation seems to be winding down.
However the efforts back in the USA have been stepped up a notch.

Homeland Security distributed these pamphlets last week throughout
the all the business offices in the continental USA. The cost to print
this information...12 Billion dollars.
