I walk these quiet empty streets like a post-apocalyptic omega man surrounded by quiet and empty stores and houses. Past the fast food joints still not busy even at dinnertime and car washes not busy on a beautiful Saturday morning. I fell into some money this week and thought I’d celebrate by going down to the sport’s bar about a mile from the garage and watching some college football.

Non-combat US troops in Iraq engage in combat
by Boris Volkhonsky
Global Research, September 6, 2010 Voice of Russia
On September 5, US troops were called in by Iraqi authorities to help combat insurgents who attacked an army base in Baghdad.
