Folks, I'm lost for words at the moment but, I'd like to present two Headlines that just popped up within the last hour.

U.S. pilot seen firing on people in Iraq, Reuters photographer apparently among dead in '07 incident

"the video, shot from an Apache helicopter ... clearly shows the unprovoked slaying of a wounded Reuters employee and his rescuers. Two young children involved in the rescue were also seriously wounded."


KABUL - Afghan President Hamid Karzai threatened over the weekend to quit the political process and join the Taliban if he continued to come under outside pressure to reform, several members of parliament said Monday.

Karzai made the unusual statement at a closed-door meeting Saturday with selected lawmakers — just days after kicking up a diplomatic controversy with remarks alleging foreigners were behind fraud in last year's disputed elections.

Welp, good luck to him. He will feel differently when he does and the US and Allies pull out to leave him holding the bag. Trust me, the Taliban will not forgive him.
