The unsourced item you provided only proved one thing: there is no credibility in the Iraqi government.
The very first paragraph was steeped in a lie: indicating that Bush is smart. Most of what he has done to this great nation proves otherwise.
Nice try, though not very convincing!

Well the same writer wrote this about our President. In it they define who are the terrorist.
Report thisPresident Bush is much smarter than most liberals thought and the 9/11 Commission confirms it in their report. However, I’m confident liberals haven’t seen it because of their tendency to compartmentalize and not see outside of their little box.
President Bush has vision. He’s already doing a lot of what the Commission says about terrorism.
Is al Qaeda the Enemy?
Usama Bin Ladin issued a fatwa declaring that every Muslim should try his utmost to kill any American, military or civilian, anywhere in the world.
Al Qaeda represents an ideological movement, not a finite group of people. In this way it has transformed itself into a decentralized force.
The enemy is not just “terrorism.” It is the threat posed specifically by Islamist terrorism, by Bin Ladin and others who draw on a long tradition of extreme intolerance within a minority strain of Islam.
The enemy is a perversion of Islam that goes beyond al Qaeda to include the radical ideological movement, inspired in part by al Qaeda, that has spawned other terrorist groups and violence. Thus our strategy must match our means to two ends: dismantling the al Qaeda network and, in the long term, prevailing over the ideology that contributes to Islamist terrorism. (Goodbye Saddam!)
The U. S. government should identify and prioritize actual or potential terrorist sanctuaries and have realistic country or regional strategies for each. (Goodbye Saddam!)
Define the message and stand as an example of moral leadership in the world. (President Bush’s message; The enemy are the terrorists and those that support them. Bring ‘um on. )

Quote: “I remember Baghdad before the war- one could live anywhere. We didn’t know what our neighbors were- we didn’t care. No one asked about religion or sect. No one bothered with what was considered a trivial topic: are you Sunni or Shia? ......On a personal note, we’ve finally decided to leave….”

#Sunday, December 31, 2006 - A Lynching… It’s official. Maliki and his people are psychopaths….. America the savior… After nearly four years and Bush’s biggest achievement in Iraq has been a lynching. .......He’s like a vulture in a suit…” Saddam: “Heya hay il marjala…?” - which is basically saying, “Is this your manhood…?”
I guess that she and her family finally did leave - dead or alive?!?!
