Iraqi PM Claims Terrorists are Streaming into His Country

I'm afraid I'm not inclined to simply assume this is true.

The Bush Administration told us this before (part of their, "let's corner 'emall there so we don't need to fight them in downtown Hoboken" initiative), and it turned out that Iraq was not seeing a huge influx of simple fighters - let alone terrorists - from other lands.

To the trained eye, Mr. Allawi is the U.S. I suspect many Iraqis feel this way, too. It's our mismanagement of things that has turned Iraq into a festering quagmire with mothers, grandmothers, and such suddenly now labeled insurgents simply because they're using their newly-found "freedom to speech" to say they don't like how things are going. And a lot of old men, women, and tiny children are dying with the bombs we drop on "insurgents".
