Ashes & Dust ...
Let me teach you a few words in Arabic. Ashes is "Ramad" and Dust is "Turab" which also means earth, the soil, and "Turba" may also mean tomb or more exactly the grounds where someone is buried. Ramad and Turab is what Ramadi looks like today. Ramadi in the Anbar province. The hated Anbar, part of the "triangle". The ever so despised Anbar by both the Americans and the Iranians. The hatred was most evident today. The American Forces - wait, I take that back - they are not forces, they are cowards. The American cowards bombed Ramadi today. Many homes were demolished.

Huh ? Come back where ?
You are imagining that the Munir Bachir piece has disappeared.
It is still there, under the Blog archive. Glad you like Celia Cruz, the Queen of Salsa.
All the pleasure is mine Captain.
Still waiting for my sailing lesson no.1.
Wow, more surprises. I had no idea you are so fluent in Spanish.
I am happy you like it. It came from the Heart.
Bless you and yours.
Can he salsa though ?
Hello, am fine thanks. But how many times do I need to repeat that my name is LAYLA and not LEYLA ?
Thanks for noting it down.
Are you still crying for blood? Here is some news for you: Video of Baghdad teeming with hope
Now what do you have to say about the turnaround in Iraq?
I'll bet the shopkeepers and their customers in the video would be pretty upset if you had any success in resurrecting the insurgency.
It is ironic that the rest of the world is in a financial crisis while Iraq is now flush with cash. You still want to take that away?
Greg from USA
Since hope is teeming now in Baghdad.
Let us know when you plan to visit.
And be sure to send us all a photo of you and the family when you get there.
God speed !
PS
In all seriousness, your're an asshole.
