I implore everyone to pick up the Aug 30 issue of Time magazine and read the two articles on the Iraq war.

Here is a link to the first, The Lessons of Najaf,

The second is called, High Noon On Haifa Street, and I can't find the link at Time.com.

These two articles are very, very frightening and very concerning.  Out American troops are in a terrible, terrible place that very little media has explained very well.

After reading these articles, my concern for our troops has doubled and my contempt for our government leaders has quadrupled.
