Still cheering

04.04.2003

They cheered in Najaf. In Umm Qasr. In Safwan. In Zubayr. In Aziziyah (a suburb of Baghdad). In Basra, Iraqis and Royal Maries played soccer (the Iraqis won 9-3). Huh. You'd almost think that, like, maybe they're happy to be free of Hussein? Maybe?

You know, I sure wish we'd asked more Iraqis if they wanted a war of liberation. I'm sure the hippies in Berkeley mean well, but I'm always preferred asking the people themselves. It's a little more, um, you know, progressive.
