The successful liberation by UK troops

The last British soldier killed in action in Iraq died in late August. That's how well things are going in Basra. And normal, decent Iraqis are grateful, of course. Mohammad Ali, chemistry teacher: I left Iraq 22 years ago because of Saddam... I'm so happy to be back. The British did us a favour. They got rid of the biggest dictator in the Middle East. [this item]

A liberator's funeral, Texas style

Funeral for Specialist James Kiehl, age 22, from Comfort, Texas, who was killed, along with six other soldiers at the same place and the same day that Jessica Lynch was taken prisoner. His body was one of those that our special forces heroes dug up with their bare hands near a hospital in Iraq. If only the Western media could show as much respect and decency. [this item]
