In Season: wildflower hikes,

Middle East Council of Churches has an interesting update here from Iraq. Security, looting and a cash famine create a climate of unsecurity. What a shame......Over 2,000 Iraqi deaths and they haven't gotten Hussein yet. Makes me wonder how it can be called a victory when the ultimatum wasn't completed. Remember when they said they think they got Saddam Hussein under a pile of rubble where his bomb shelters were. What ever happened to that? And um excuse me but don't the raided Iraqi nuclear plants alarm anyone? Hello...Am I supposed to see them as seperate and ignorable issues? Well, if you read the press you would think think they are unrelated. For some reason the Bush Regime chooses to ignore the lost nukes. Could it be such a big slip up that it has to become a "non issue". What motivation would Bush have to ignore the nukes if they can be used as a threat to the health and well being of American citizens? Because then the good ole USA would have to acknowledge health consequences and resulting liability and compenstaion issues for victims of radiation poisoning? So many questions...so little time. It's just that something smells fishy here and it aint me.
