STOP LYING ABOUT THE SUCCESS OF THE "SURGE." BOMB OUTSIDE SHIITE MOSQUE IN BAGHDAD KILLS 17
The American public has been sold a bill of goods on the so-called success of "the surge."
There was a lull in violence for a very short period of time and now Iraq, and in particular Baghdad, is now in the throes of a series of suicide bombings that have killed almost two dozen people.
And according to sources in Iraq, the violence is going to escalate.
Women suicide bombers are signing up by the hundreds to carryout suicide attacks on not only Iraqi civilians but U.S. troops.
Meanwhile, the mainstream media in the United States is fixated on the election and tonight's vice president debate between Joe Biden and Sarah Palin.
The United States "fiddles" while Baghdad "burns."
Bombs outside Shiite mosques in Baghdad kill 17
By VANESSA GERA Associated Press
Oct. 2, 2008, 4:43AM
http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/world/6035483.html
BAGHDAD — Suicide bombers targeted Shiite worshippers as they left morning prayers today at two Baghdad mosques, killing 17 people and injuring more than 30 others, police said.
In a separate attack, gunmen fatally shot six people as they were traveling in a minibus in Wajihiyah, a town about 60 miles north of Baghdad.
The dead included two children, three women and a man, police in Diyala province said. Another woman and her small child were injured.
The bombings in Baghdad occurred as Shiite worshippers were celebrating the holiday of Eid al-Fitr, which marks the end of the fasting month of Ramadan.
No group claimed responsibility but attacks on Shiite civilians are widely associated with Sunni extremists such as al-Qaida in Iraq in a bid to reignite the sectarian conflict that plunged the nation to the brink of civil war two years ago.
In the deadliest attack, a suicide car bomber in a white Mercedes sedan detonated his explosives about 20 yards from a mosque in Zafaraniyah in southeastern Baghdad. He set off the bomb when Iraqi soldiers tried to stop him from approaching the building, police said.
That attack killed 12 people, including three Iraqi soldiers, and injured 23, police said.
In the other attack, a suicide bomber detonated his explosive belt as worshippers were leaving the Rasoul mosque in the capital's eastern New Baghdad district. Five people died and nine were injured, police said.

THE VIDEO THAT SHOULD SINK JOHN McCAIN'S WHITE HOUSE DREAMS
This video is frightening when you think the GOP has put up a man for President of the United States, John McCain, whose whole portfolio is his so-called expertise on the military.
McCain is seen lying about how General David Petraeus travels around Baghdad without body armor and unprotected by troops.
Time after time in this video McCain is caught telling a flat out lie about conditions in Iraq as well what he said about the Confederate flag.

WATCH HOW McCAIN WAS SO WRONG AS HE PUSHED FOR IRAQ WAR RIGHT AFTER 9/11
Does anyone really want someone like John McCain in charge of this country? Watch this video and listen to McCain as he makes one misstatement after another about Iraq as he pushes for going to war with Iraq two months after 9/11.
Just imagine what McCain will be doing if elected when it comes to Iran. He will use the same twisted rationale to lead the United States into another war.
We don't have the troops to fight a war with IRAN so that means there will have to be a military draft if McCain is elected.
There are already plans in the works to upgrade the Selective Service Board and there are also plans in the works to close off the borders with Canada and Mexico so young military age women and children can't avoid the draft by going to Canada or Mexico.
A vote for McCain/Palin is a vote for your children or grandchildren to be drafted and sent to the ongoing wars in IRAQ or AGHANISTAN, or a new war with IRAN.

WASHINGTON - When Russian bombers approach American airspace and U.S. Air Force fighters are scrambled, Sarah Palin's phone doesn't ring.
The Alaska governor has no command authority over the guardians of U.S. airspace despite her recent suggestion otherwise.
"She doesn't have any role in that process," Air Force Maj. Allen Herritage, spokesman for the Alaska North American Aerospace Defense Command, told the Daily News.

IRAQ DOCTORS WILL CARRY GUNS FOR SELF DEFENSE
Iraq doctors ‘will carry’ guns for self-defence
Government grants weapons permit to doctors for self-defence, pledges not to detain them during security operations.
Source: http://www.middle-east-online.com/english/?id=28100
BAGHDAD - The Iraqi government on Monday said it will allow doctors to carry guns in self-defence, pledging that they will not be detained during security operations.
The cabinet agreed to grant weapons permits to doctors in the light of the killing by insurgents of a large number of professional people since the 2003 US-led invasion.
"The cabinet decided to allow each doctor to carry one weapon to defend himself," the statement said. Doctors will not be detained during security operations unless the health ministry has been informed.
In a move seen as an attempt to prevent the emigration of skilled people, the government is also offering better housing for doctors and a review of taxes imposed on professionals, the statement said.

BAGHDAD / Aswat al-Iraq: At least three civilians were killed and seven others were wounded on Tuesday in a car bomb explosion near the national theatre in central Baghdad, a police source said.
“A car rigged with explosives went off on Tuesday afternoon in front of a bakery near the national theatre in central Baghdad, killing three civilians and injuring seven, including four women,” the source told Aswat al-Iraq.He gave no more details.Baghdad is the capital of Iraq and Baghdad province. With a municipal population estimated at 7,000,000, it is the largest city in Iraq. It is the second largest city in the Arab world (after Cairo) and the second largest city in southwest Asia (after Tehran).Located on the Tigris River, the city dates back to at least the 8th century, and probably to pre-Islamic times.Once the center of Dar al-Islam (the abode of Islam), Baghdad has been a center of violent conflict since 2003 because of the ongoing Iraq war.Baghdad's population is a mix of Sunnis and Shiites. It is mainly divided into two sides: the west (al-Karkh) and the east (al-Rasafa).
WHY DOESN'T THE MEDIA REPORT ON IRAQ AND AFGHANISTAN ANYMORE? DEATH AND VIOLENCE SWEEP ACROSS BOTH WAR ZONES
Just because John McCain says "we are winning in Iraq" doesn't make it so. The truth is there growing violence and death in both war zones where we have close to 200,000 young Americans hunkered down and trying to keep from having their heads blown off.

CNN REPORTS: 34 KILLED IN BAGHDAD

Dozens killed in Baghdad's deadliest day this Ramadan
Story Highlights
NEW: Thirty-four deaths by bombs are the most in one day in Baghdad this Ramadan
NEW: Four others killed in Diyala province
Fifteen killed in attacks involving suicide bomber, car bomb in commercial area
Car bomb near market in separate area kills at least 12

BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) -- Several bombings across Baghdad killed 34 people Sunday -- the bloodiest day in the capital during this holy month of Ramadan, an Interior Ministry official said.
Also Sunday, in Iraq's Diyala province, at least four people were killed and 17 others wounded in several attacks, a security official in the province said.
The attacks came as Iraqis prepared for Eid al-Fitr, which marks the end of Ramadan with feasts and celebrations. The holiday in Iraq begins Tuesday.
In Baghdad's central Karrada district, a suicide bomber wearing an explosives vest detonated minutes after a bomb in a parked car exploded, the Interior Ministry's head of Explosives and Ordnance Disposal unit said, speaking on state-run al-Iraqia television.
Twenty people were killed and 72 wounded in those attacks, which occurred in a busy commercial area in Karrada. Three women and four policemen were among the dead, and the wounded included seven policemen and women and children, the Interior Ministry said.
Initially, the Interior Ministry reported a roadside bomb followed the car bomb. But Iraqi Gen. Jihad al-Jabiri of the Interior Ministry later said that as people gathered about 328 feet (100 meters) from where the car had exploded, the suicide bomber detonated amid the crowd, causing most of the casualties.
Earlier Sunday, a bomb detonated in a car parked near a southwestern Baghdad market and mosque, killing at least a dozen people and wounding 35 others, the official said. The attack, which occurred shortly before Iftar -- the evening meal at which Muslims break their fast during Ramadan -- took place in a predominantly Shiite area.
Around the same time, a bomb attached to a car detonated on a bridge in southwestern Baghdad, killing the driver and wounding a civilian bystander, the official said. It was believed the bomb was attached to the car without the driver's knowledge, the official said.
Earlier Sunday, a roadside bomb exploded near an Iraqi army patrol close to a restaurant in western Baghdad's al-Mansour district, killing one soldier and wounding three others.
In Diyala province, a roadside bomb struck an Iraqi Army patrol in Balad Ruz Sunday morning, killing at least two soldiers and wounding 10 others, a security official in the province said. Balad Ruz is about 30 miles (48 kilometers) east of the provincial capital of Baquba.
In Diyala's Khan Bani Saad, near Baquba, gunmen opened fire on civilians Sunday and killed at least two people, the official said.
And in central al-Saadiya -- a predominantly Kurdish town northeast of Baquba -- a roadside bomb struck the convoy of Ahmed al-Zarqoushi, the town's mayor. The attack wounded al-Zarqoushi and seven others, including five members of his security detail and two civilian bystanders.

Palin moved to fire the librarian for simply refusing to go along with her plan. According to the article Palin DID fire the librarian. She was only rehired after the town protested.
Palin FIRED city officials that appeared in a commercial for the incumbent mayor. Even the head of the Wasilla Museum!?
Palin BLOCKED all city officials from speaking to the press without her permission.

McCAIN LIED ABOUT HIS SUPPORT OF VETERANS AND TROOPS IN DEBATE
John McCain flat out LIED to the American public when he rattled off all he is done for veterans during the first Presidential debate with Barack Obama.
Too bad Obama didn't have THESE facts to toss right back at McCain and see how the LIAR would have answered them:
McCain Lied about his Support of Veterans and Troops
by: Brian McGough
Sat Sep 27, 2008 at 00:05:21 AM EDT
http://www.vetvoice.com/showDiary.do?diaryId=1957
In Friday's debate John McCain said "I know the veterans, I know them well, and I know that they know that I'll take care of them, and I have been proud of their support and their recognition of my service to the veterans, and I love them, and I'll take care of them, and they know that I'll take care of them."
Truth be told, this is not the case. McCain has a lackluster voting record when it comes to veterans' issues, and America's veterans know it. The Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America have given McCain a grade of "D" when it comes to voting in their interest. The Disabled American Veterans have given McCain a 20 percent rating when it comes to voting in the interest of disabled veterans.
McCain has voted 29 times against veterans' medical benefits. In April 2006, McCain joined only 13 other senators in voting against an amendment that would increase funding for the VA to provide outpatient care and treatment. Earlier that year, McCain voted against increasing funding for military and veterans' hospitals. This was money that could have been used to fix the problems at Walter Reed before it became a national disgrace.
McCain was a staunch opponent of the bipartisan Webb/Hagel GI Bill. This bill would have provided better educational opportunities to veterans of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars. McCain called this bill "too generous" and tried to introduce his own watered down bill. McCain didn't even bother to show up to vote for the bill. After it passed the two staunchest opponents of the GI Bill, President Bush and John McCain, tried to take credit for its passage.
McCain has an equally bad record when it comes to supporting our active duty soldiers. McCain opposed the Webb/Hagel Dwell time amendment. This amendment would have ensured that for every day troops were deployed, they would spend one day at home.
This time would have allowed troops to decompress from combat stress and to focus on maintaining the equipment necessary to fight a war. Our troops and equipment are now dangerously overstretched.
McCain opposed the Bayh amendment that would have provided $360 million for the procurement of up-armored humvees at a time when roadside bombs were killing American troops.
McCain voted to kill the Reed Amendment. This amendment would have begun to increase the size of the active army in 2003 and focused on stability operations.
McCain voted against the Dodd amendment that would provide an additional $320 million in protective gear for our troops in harms way.
McCain also voted against a Landrieu amendment that would have given our National Guard and Reserve troops the equipment they needed to survive on the battlefield.
There is a distinct pattern in these votes, and that pattern shows that John McCain is no friend to veterans on Capitol Hill. He may say all he wants that he is, but that doesn't change the fact that he votes time and time again against the needs of veterans and active duty soldiers.
