Peace in Pakistan!

Remember how Bush used to say that a 'free Iraq' (that is liberated from Saddan) would lead to a spread of freedom and democracy throughout the Middle East? So four years later, how's that strategy going?

Peace in the Middle East:

Iraq: 12 Turkish Soldiers Killed in Kurdish Rebel Attack. [NYT]

In Pakistan: "Two bombs exploded Thursday just seconds apart and feet from a truck carrying the returning opposition leader Benazir Bhutto, narrowly missing her but killing scores of people and bloodying her triumphal homecoming after eight years in exile.

According to reports on local news stations late Friday morning, 134 people had been killed and about 400 wounded." [NYT]

And: "Iraqi officials expressed outrage early Sunday at what they say are civilian deaths in the wake of a massive military operation in Baghdad's Sadr City neighborhood.

The U.S. military said its ground forces are "unaware" of civilian deaths in the early morning raid that it said left 49 "criminals" dead." [from "U.S. forces battle militants in Sadr City" - CNN]

Homeland Security:

J.F.K. Workers Moved Drugs, Authorities Say. Not that I believe it, but could dirty bombs be next? [NYT]

So much for peace in the Middle East! And while he should be worried about more "mundane" holes in basic security like the above, Bush continues on with his lunatic "war on terror" and his demented belief in visions of World War III starting if Iran goes nuclear. C'mon, is he friggin' serious?! [NYT]
