« Reply #7 on: Oct 10th, 2003, 3:01pm By: MAC »what do you think about Arnold Schwarzenegger winning that governor-election in California? I really like Arnie as an actor, his funny accent, and I have respect for the things he achieved. But I'm not so thrilled about his political career. Why is it that so many actors, singers, etc go into politics? I don't understand that. Is it the media-attention or what? Or do they really think they can make a difference? I just can't do about it, but I can't take a guy that plays a robot or the first pregnant man in history, serious as a politician.

His Wife Being A 1st Cousin To The Kennedy's Will Surely Help Arnie! I Find It Hard To Take Him Serious Also But The More I Listen To His Views I Think He'll Pull This Off! The Sad Fact Is That Arnold Has Always Had To Prove Himself When He Came To This Continent & Has Made His Stand Now.

It's The Waiting Game To See If He Does Any Better.

Deadly helicopter attack in Iraq 'tragic for America'
Last Updated Sun, 02 Nov 2003 23:25:08
BAGHDAD - At least 16 U.S. soldiers were killed and 20 injured when their giant transport helicopter was shot down west of Baghdad on Sunday.
INDEPTH: Iraq: Post-war casualties
It was the deadliest day for the United States military in Iraq since March, when troops first moved into the country to topple Saddam Hussein.
The nine-tonne Chinook helicopter crashed in a field south of Fallujah after being hit by a shoulder-fired missile.

As Black Hawk helicopters hovered above, dozens of soldiers converged on the site near the village of Hasi, an area of strong Sunni Muslim resistance.
Villagers danced in celebration, holding up blackened chunks of wreckage.
The Chinook was carrying dozens of soldiers to Baghdad International Airport where they planned to catch flights for "rest and relaxation" leaves, a military spokesperson said.
Witnesses said at least two missiles were fired from a palm grove at the helicopter, which was travelling with another Chinook.
"It's clearly a tragic day for America," said U.S. Defence Secretary Donald Rumsfeld.
"In a long, hard war, we're going to have tragic days. But they're necessary. They're a part of a war that's difficult and complicated."
Three other American soldiers were killed in roadside explosions in Iraq Sunday.

Two died in a blast as their convoy travelled through the town of Fallujah.
In Baghdad, one U.S. soldier was killed in an explosion early Sunday morning. Witnesses said someone tossed a grenade at American troops clearing out a marketplace.
More than 375 U.S. military personnel have died since the attack against Iraq was launched in the spring. The total includes at least 139 soldiers killed by enemy fire after the White House officially declared an end to combat in the country on May 1.

Is Caught!!!
=----------------------------------------------------------------------= Saddam in U.S. custody
Last Updated Sun, 14 Dec 2003 12:03:50 BAGHDAD - American troops have captured the former Iraqi president Saddam Hussein, using shovels to dig him out of a tiny cellar.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we got him," Paul Bremer told a news conference on Sunday. "The tyrant is a prisoner."
He said Saddam was captured in a house around 8 p.m. local time on Saturday night during a military operation dubbed Red Dawn.
The raid took place in Adwar, a town 16 kilometres from Saddam's hometown of Tikrit, about 160 kilometres north of Baghdad.
U.S. forces staked positions around the house along the Tigris River for about four hours. They waited for nightfall, then they went in.
Soldiers had to knock down a wall before reaching the former Iraqi president's underground hiding place.
He was found at the bottom of what the U.S. military called a "spider hole," six to eight metres deep and large enough for a person to lie down in. The hole was camouflaged with bricks and dirt, and was equipped with an air vent and a fan.
A spokesperson said Saddam gave up without a fight and described him as co-operative. No shots were fired.
U.S. officials said they confiscated $750,000 US in $100 bills, two AK-47 guns and a pistol. Two other Iraqis found in the area were taken into custody.
The first pictures of Saddam, 66, showed him with a bushy, grey beard and long hair. Photographs after his interrogation showed him clean shaven with his familiar mustache restored.
Maj.-Gen. Raymond Odierno said about 600 members of the U.S. forces were involved in the operation. The raid was carried out within 24 hours of receiving intelligence reports that Saddam was in the area, he said.
JOIN THE DISCUSSION: Share your thoughts on this story
Saddam had a pistol with him, but didn't resist when confronted because he was wedged into "an extremely small crawl space," said Odierno. "He was just caught like a rat."
In Baghdad, U.S. officials said they haven't decided what to do with Saddam now that he has been captured. A member of Iraq's governing council, Ahmed Chalabi, says he will face a public trial.

I've just watched the two press conferences, US and UK announcing Saddams capture. Ours calm and dignified, whilst the Yanks are screaming and whooping. Do these thick Yanks never learn. They were whooping and screaming when it was announced they'd entered Baghdad, several hundred dead soldiers later they still think they've won. Don't they realise that terrorism is a many headed hydra, and will stay that way till the Palestinians have an independent homeland. I'm sorry to any Yanks reading this but you do really make me vomit.

Play Santa
For Children In Kabul...
(Regina Sun Newspaper)
Sunday, December 28, 2003
ADVERTISEMENT Canadian staff from Operation Christmas Child are in Kabul, Afghanistan, where they helped Canadian military personnel prepare for a very special shoe box distribution.
For the first time, Operation Christmas Child is partnering with the Canadian military to deliver shoe box gifts to needy children. Stationed in Kabul since August, the nearly 2,000 Canadian troops are looking forward to doing something fun with these desperately poor kids in and around Kabul.
"We are so glad that Samaritan's Purse is able to bring gifts of hope and joy here from so far away," said Capt. Mark Bossi from Kabul. "It breaks our hearts to see so many poor children here in Afghanistan."
Military personnel have identified 3,000 kids living in orphanages and IDP (internally displaced people) camps in and around Kabul. They were distributing the shoe box gifts, with the help of a small Operation Christmas Child team from Canada, at five locations from Dec. 15-18.
Operation Christmas Child found out about this unique opportunity through Canada Safeway. One of the soldiers, Godfrey VanDeleur, stationed in Kabul is an employee of Canada Safeway Limited. He contacted them a couple of months ago, knowing Safeway is a strong supporter of the program, and they put him in touch.
Canadian shoe boxes destined for Afghanistan came from the processing centre in Moncton, N.B., and were flown to the UK, then Germany, and finally Kabul.
"It's quite an undertaking," said Paul Gimson, Projects Manager for Samaritan's Purse-Canada, who was in Kabul making arrangements for the distributions. "The logistics of getting these shoe boxes to kids around the world can be overwhelming, but it's definitely worth it to see the smiles on their faces."
This year, Samaritan's Purse anticipated more than 720,000 Canadian shoe boxes will be sent to children in 20 countries. Internationally, seven million shoe box gifts are being delivered to kids in 95 countries. Operation Christmas Child has been collecting and distributing shoe box gifts since 1992, with a total accumulation of more than 30 million boxes.
The Canadian military are in Afghanistan as part of NATO's International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) to assist with elections and to keep the peace. Canadian troops represent nearly half of the military personnel from 24 countries in Kabul.
