Violence in Basra Down 90% - A Reverse Surge To Blame
November 17th 2007 13:01
While George Bush happily claimed that 'the surge is working', then later on retracted to 'give the surge some time' and is now coming dangerously close to 'fuck you, I'm President and I say the surge is working' we find that anti-surging tactics purpetrated by the British army in Basra has brought violence down 90%.
The Iraqi security force says that the violence dropped 90%, but neglected to mention how much of that 90% was against, or involved the British army. Britian is planning on a full withdrawal and word on the street is a full withdrawal by the US army from Iraq will drop violence by 75%. No word on when the Iraqi's will realize their impro-explosives work just as effectively on each other.
For some interesting number comparisons:

I wonder if theres a relationship between the two...

For some interesting number comparisons:
Claire Spencer, head of the Middle East programme at Chatham House, said: "There is a head of steam building up [asking] what exactly are we in there for?" Army officers suggest they are part of the problem rather than the solution. In Basra, 90% of the attacks are directed against British troops.
Really Long Link
A spokesman says the Iraqi security forces still come under attack from militants in Basra, but the overall level of violence is down 90% since the British troops left.

They Like to Dress Up As Arabs and Bomb People
November 17th 2007 12:00
King David Hotel
To that end Ingrun went half way to staging an act, pity they weren't acting because while they were dressed as Arab terrorists the bomb they set off really killed people, an event they celebrate to this day.
But it's OK that the bomb went off, that people died, that they're still celebrating the event because they claim they warned the British a bomb was going to go off at the hotel. See, it was all part of their policy back in the day, that they would bomb stuff randomly but do their best to not hurt anyone. I guess it's a more extreme version of going to war with another country in the name of peace, but who am I to say?
