Statues rise, they come down statues topple to the ground I would have expected a harder resistance some worship the magic of rhetorical insistance. Mr. Minister of Information with loudspeaker in hand think that the old regime still chases invaders from desert foothold bases? Liberators from a tyrant are in your midst how your view is clouded in mental mist you have only to reflect on accurate facts coalition forces entered your capital intact instability was unleashed on familar grounds but from your mouth came familar sounds, 'those infidels will be buried here'... think they'd run in panic or fear? ahh..the feeling of being off the leash a moment of freedom after so many years loss of dear ones and rivers of tears, of being carted off to dogpounds now new hope is being found. Mr Minister of Information, from your mouth there are no further sounds due to bravery, your esteemed leader is not found? would you say that he holidays now nextdoor or seeks a facelift to hide facial horrors. but you were so adamant of the capitol being secure took it for granted popular support was sure; tasted a lesson after mixing your stew you had to hide behind civilians too. Good to hear you gave your microphone away walked off the podium, you had your day. [This message has been edited by ecrivan (04-10-2003 11:36 PM).] |

While the tyrant leaders hide in bunkers deep in the bowels of the earth the soldiers are called upon to take the pounding...James |

Hi Kaile, Inforgiving forums..I agree, but such is the case here especially for uncommon topics. Joy, no I have mixed feelings about the resulting chaos and pillaging that coalition forces should have planned for concretely before the 'liberation' began. James, This time around I think they've gone off to a neighbouring country or countries...this is how they're showing that the coalition forces are being chased out of Iraq.
