Iraq's Epic Suffering Is Made Invisible

A mystery the US is in no hurry to resolve
A human brain lay beside the highway. It was scattered in the sand, blasted from its owner's head when the Americans ambushed their own Iraqi policemen. A few inches away were a policeman's teeth, broken but clean dentures, the teeth of a young man. "I don't know if they are the teeth of my brother - I don't even know if my brother is alive or dead," Ahmed Mohamed shouted at me. "The Americans took the dead and the wounded away - they won't tell us anything."

Why do politicians so rarely apologize? Why in particular won't they admit to being surprised by some development? Lack of scruples can't explain it: Denying the obvious isn't even good unscrupulous politics. For that reason, it is beyond spin.

The truth would be better politics, and the administration is fanning out to the talk shows to lie anyway.

Cowboy and country
This is what George W. Bush's presidency has consisted of, making ill-advised decisions without adequate thought and without regard to the differing, but constructive, views of others.
