3. The only place to get any real news over the HuRah will be this place

Between Saddam and Michael Jackson, reality doesn't stand a chance.

6. There are a lot of pissed off Iraqis

with a lot of grudges to settle. As Rummie likes to say, it's a very messy situation over there.

Actually, capturing Saddam may make things worse not better, especially with the Americans planning to pull out in June.
