   My go to page for the skinny on the GWOT in Iraq is here.
   A must read for a fuller picture of what is happening in Baghdad.
   Don’t Abandon Us!

   Last weekend a traffic jam several miles long snaked out of the Mansour district in western Baghdad. The delay stemmed not from a car bomb closing the road but from a queue to enter the city’s central amusement park. The line became so long some families left their cars and walked to enjoy picnics, fairground rides and soccer, the Iraqi national obsession.

   I’ve been watching that on Fox this morning and checking all the news reports but have yet to find any indication as to why ethnic Albanians would wish to kill a bunch of soldiers that have never done anything to them. Why, one would almost think it was a religious obligation, but no religious affiliations are mentioned.

   The wildfires that started yesterday south of Jacksonville in Bradford and Clay counties that I was very concerned about due to the high winds and extremely dry conditions have merged into a 16,000 acre fire overnight and the windy conditions today aren’t making it any easier for the firefighters.

   Ooh, Fox News just used the “Islam” word and “backyard jihadists” to describe the aspiring terrorists.

   Gosh, I must be prescient or something.
