A Probe

Benazir Bhutto was murdered a couple of months ago.  Now some in the Pakistan government have asked the United Nations  to have a probe into her death! 

Well, it is about time!  I have been waiting to read what was going on with finding out who did the murder.  We know the why, she was too popular and talking against the current Pakistani Government.

The courage this woman had shown has not been rewarded.  She did not to be murdered.  It is about time the international community looks into what is really going on in Pakistan. 

 I don't think the international community will like what it finds out.

Iraq

Scribbling.  The act of placing random lines on a piece of paper.  Well, today I am feeling a bit random. 

The War in Iraq has been on my radar lately.  It is domestic policy.  I know.  And the "Fatigue" is only felt by the media not the American Public.  

But what about the celebrity "Fatigue" that is actually going on, in my opinion.  I am fatigued about the news of weddings, break ups, and other antics by individuals that I will never really want in my life.  

These stories are treated as if they are important.  The celebrity stories push the real news off of the front page.  Maybe it does sell papers, but I have not bought a paper in years and I scroll past them to get to the real news.

Today I am just interested in what is happening in Iraq.  The troops are not being sent home and they are sitting on a powder keg of hate.  Then those troops have to deal with the "contractors" who are profiting from the war continuing.  I want this war to end, but others who are making a good living from being a "contractor" are making it difficult for the troops to come home.  The Iraqi people only hate Americans because of the 160,000 contractors.  

But what do I know, I'm not over there, but I do know that if I was making money from the war;  I  would not want to see it end.
