The War on Terror to become "The Long War"

When will this end? The US government sent our troops into Iraq siting the posession of "weaponds of mass destruction" as the reason to enter. We've found none. As a result, the government is now telling us that we still needed to be there because it is a country accomodating terrorist organizations. Thousands of US troops and Iraqi civilians have been killed as a result of this "war on terror." Now, as I read an article in the Guardian about "The Long War" I cannot help wondering if the fighting will ever end. As I have indicated in past comments posted on this site, I am very much against my country's involvement in Iraq for a number of reasons. Our excuse for going there has proved to be a lie, and we are still waiting for a plan for bringing our troops home. Imagine my discust at reading the article in The Gardian entitled "The Long War" (I've included a link to the article....hope it works). |

Jump To Comment: 1 2*Prodi of the Italian socialist alliance has confirmed that if elected he will follow the example of Zapatero in Spain and withdraw the Italian contingent from Iraq. To which Berlusconi has replied that he will be "jesus christ" of Italian politics and resurect his flagging support, its a typical quip of the man so long considered unfit to rule, because of the cartel media position of his media empire, his long records of insults, and his corruption cases. Some readers may see an oblique reference to a recent law suit brought by a 60+ year old atheist against his local parish priest for "faking jesus".
for details on Berlusconi's media empire and links to lots of previous articles on the politician who "sells himself as a popularist right wing product" see

Please remember that the "core" of indymedia ireland's collective were present for Genoa 2001 and promote this film-

A member of my collective was standing on the steps of the church in the square as carlo was shot. We had just stopped the World Bank meeting in Barcelona 2001. No-one was seriously injured even under Aznar.

*Danish PM Anders Fogh Rasmussen has suggested calling a referendum in support of his state's comitment to the Iraq war. This of course follows the rôle he and the media in hist country which favour his global vision's in stoking inter-religious hatred, inter-racial hatred, and splitting European resolve to ensuring a lasting peace in the Middle East.

Apparently, the link I provided in my original post doesn't work. So, here it is again. I've rechecked this one, and should take you to the article found in The Guardian.
