[QUOTE]Originally posted by Highway Hoss: [QB] A new article on the Iraq war, [URL=http://www.commondreams.org/headlines04/0502-01.htm]A year on from 'Mission Accomplished', an Army in Disgrace, a Policy in Tatters and the Real Prospect of Defeat.[/URL] has a relavent quote concerning Iraqi opinion of the new flag: [QUOTE] It is a measure of how far the Governing Council is out of touch with ordinary Iraqi opinion that they should have voted to change the flag in the first place. Mohammed, an engineer trying to patch up a broken sewage pipe in Baghdad, still had time to express his fury at the change. "Of course the occupation is a disaster," he said. "We understand the Governing Council are American agents. But a man has to be the worst of collaborators to change his country's flag." [/QUOTE]In a way though that flag may end up being a perfect symbol of one of the biggest disasters in US foriegn policy history; IMHO the neocon-artists who got us into this mess should be tarred and feathered and run out of the country...preferably to Geneva to stand trial for instigating war crimes.
