American Entropy: 3 Strikes and I'm Shocked

3 Strikes and I'm Shocked

3 things in the news today that shocked me; one (the first one) is genuine the others are meant to be satirical.

1) The fill-in for Ariel Sharon was quoted Tuesday admitting that for genuine peace in Palestine (including Israel) his nation would need to give up more occupied land.
"In order to ensure the existence of a Jewish national home, we will not be able to continue ruling over the territories in which the majority of the Palestinian population lives"

Let's hope this third party can pull through the upcoming elections in Israel, they're our best hope at this point.

2) It seems those photos that the papers have claimed show Bush and Jack Abramoff together have come from...

Jack Abramoff. He's turned on his President and party!

3) Study: Army Stretched to Breaking Point
Andrew Krepinevich, a retired Army officer who wrote the report under a Pentagon contract, concluded that the Army cannot sustain the pace of troop deployments to Iraq long enough to break the back of the insurgency. He also suggested that the Pentagon's decision, announced in December, to begin reducing the force in Iraq this year was driven in part by a realization that the Army was overextended.

Duhhh!
