Obama is said to have 'visited' Iraq yesterday. In fact he visited a military base belonging to a military occupier, and didn't even trouble himself to pay a visit to the stooge PM or President. An insult in other words. Another insult to the Iraqi people is the arrival of KFC in Fallujah, the city that was subjected to 'white rain', the same experience which Gaza suffered in January. Burn baby, burn - literally. This is Layla Anwar's take on the KFC opening. http://arabwomanblues.blogspot.com/2009/04/finger-lickin-good.html I read that as the 'transition' becomes unstuck and the payments to the militias cease, there have been more than 250 civilian deaths in the last fortnight.
