October is over

But I am proud today of developments in Iraq.

Iraqis haven't made me this proud in some time.

In fact, it hasn't been since last January and the November before that that I have beamed like this.

In related news, voting on the referendum seems to have created two opposing currents.

1) Iraq has stepped an edge closer to civil war with different factions hunkering down and fortifying their positions; and

2) The politicization of the resistance. Fight on one hand and form political blocs on the other. Very much in line with what history has taught us.

Also, good to report is that the Arab/foreign fighters the US invading forces brought with them to Iraq seem to be waning in their influence in the country.

Media articles, corroborated by sources in and outside Iraq, indicate the legitimate Iraqi resistance is rising to the forefront and "coercing" foreign fighters to leave. Seems the Iraqi resistance and these alien groups have nary an idea in common.

Everything from ideology to execution of attacks is different. Iraqi resistance target US, UK and mercenary forces, while the foreign fighters want to transform Iraq into some Sunni caliphate by killing everyone, including Muslims, who beg to differ.

Yeah, go back home, boy.

Oh, that applies to you too Johnny Reb.

Big post comin up.
