NationalEnquirer: "Faced with the biggest crisis of his political life, President Bush has hit the bottle again, The National Enquirer can reveal."
Can this be true? Is George really falling apart?
He is hilarious when he is drunk.

IRIN: "Nearly 1,500 displaced Iraqi families have returned to the northern city of Talafar after Coalition forces ended an operation to rout insurgents hiding there, but the returnees said dozens of their homes had been totally destroyed.
Up to 3,800 United States forces and 5,000 Iraqi troops took part in the operation in which 153 terrorists have been killed and 187 captured, US officials said, denying there were civilian casualties."
TheHerald: "Face it. It's time we got our army out of Blair's Vietnam.
When we are reduced to driving tanks into the local police station in pursuit of British soldiers detained by the very Iraqi police force we helped to train, then it really is time to ask what we are doing here. There is widespread acceptance now that Iraq is heading inexorably toward civil war. British troops have no role to play in that civil war and should not be called upon to get in its way.
Like Max Hastings [journalist, military historian], Collins [commander of the First Battalion Royal Irish Regiment] is expressing the view held by many in the British military who realise that Iraq has been a disaster and that things are going to get worse."
