iraq/Afghanistan Update

5 more U.S. deaths in Iraq yesterday. And this administration is still blaming Iran for the explosives. If they had one shred of evidence that they were coming from Iran, they’d have been all over the airwaves with that evidence. But are they? No….they just keep SAYING it, and as we all know, what they say and the truth are two different things.
3 U.S. troops and an enterpreter were killed in Afghanistan, also. Meanwhile, Musarraf vows to fight terrorists.
The U.S. has millions of dollars in cost overruns to security firms in the past three years, including $548 million to two British security firms that protect the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers on reconstruction projects, more than $200 million over the original budget.
All while our troops are being besieged with exhaustion and combat stress.
