The US military is reportedly in Baghdad. They must be invisible because nobody can see them. "A reporter touring several sections of the city by car at midday saw no coalition soldiers," reports the Washington Post.

"It's like a jihad. They were given a rifle and told to become a martyr," said Lt. Col. B.P. McCoy of 3rd Battalion, 4th Marines, of fighting between US forces and volunteers from Jordan, Egypt, and Sudan.

It's not like a jihad, it is a jihad. Suicide bombings and ambushes will now become a permanent feature of the Anglo-American occupation of Iraq.

"As the U.S. troops drove into Suwayrah, hundreds of young men in civilian clothes waved from the roadside. 'Look at all the Republican Guard waving at us,' said Staff Sgt. Bryce Ivings of Sarasota, Fla., suggesting the men on the roadside had quickly changed out of their uniforms."

This is about standard for the course. All young Iraqi men will now be suspected of directly collaborating with Saddam Hussein, the same way all young Palestinian men are suspected of working for Hamas or Arafat.

"At another location south of Baghdad, 3rd Infantry soldiers found an ambulance that was carrying cases of grenades, a rocket propelled grenade launcher, and boxes of classified Republican Guard documents... 'We see these ambulances racing around all the time, now I'm going to have to think twice about them,' said Staff Sgt. Thomas Slago of Los Angeles."

Again, the West Bank and Gaza. Next up: shooting up ambulances. Can murdering peace activists and UN workers be far behind?

Meanwhile, it's the Osama bin Laden factor. "The United States said Friday that victory in Iraq does not depend on finding Saddam Hussein and rejected the possibility that US forces may not find the banned weapons central to the US case for war," reports Agence France-Presse.

No, of course not. Saddam (and Osama) are excuses. The real objective is to take over Middle Eastern countries, one by one, and install pro-US-Israel governments. Saddam will now become invisible and references to him will soon be relegated to the inner pages of the New York Times.

"'We don't know' if the Iraqi leader is alive, said [Ari] Fleischer. 'In the bigger scheme of things it really doesn't matter, because whether it is him or whether it isn't him, the regime's days are numbered and are coming to an end.'"

Note: it does not matter if Bush gets Saddam or not. He can be marginalized, or so they think. Saddam and WMD were an excuse to get an army on the ground in Iraq.

"'I think that the Iraqis don't want to have Saddam Hussein statues left behind. They don't want Saddam Hussein's torture left behind. They don't want his brutality left behind,' the spokesman said."

Only the Bushites know what Iraqis want.

Meanwhile, the Bushites are drawing up plans to attack Iran and North Korea. "In the aftermath of Iraq, dealing with the Iranian nuclear weapons program will be of equal importance as dealing with the North Korean nuclear weapons program," Assistant Secretary of State John Bolton said. "This is going to be a substantial challenge."

"Sometimes people think we're a little bit 'the-sky-is-falling, the-sky-is-falling' on these regimes that the president called the axis of evil," said National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice. "Once we have a better atmosphere after Iraq, one of the things we're going to have to look at is how the world gets itself better organized to deal with issues concerning weapons of mass destruction."

Of course, once the Iranian oil fields are "secure," and there are sufficient numbers of Iranian resistance fighters and suicide bombers, all mention of WMD will shrink back to the inner pages of the War Street Journal.

"John Bolton is the kind of man with whom I would want to stand at Armageddon, if it should be my lot to be on hand for what is forecast to be the final battle between good and evil in this world," says extreme right winger Jesse Helms.

Lovely. As for the rest of us... we need to shut up, support "our" troops, keep paying our war taxes, and wave our little plastic flags. Some of us, as well, may want to think about what all this selfish and violent empire grabbing means to us personally: soon enough we will be asked to donate our kids to Bush's Armageddon.
