The only cheerful thing I saw in the news is that the Iraqi Cow (or president, if you want to call him that way) fell ill and was taken by plane to a hospital in Jordan for immediate treatment. The spokesmen say that his condition is stable but I wonder if he'll be dying soon (Amen!). I just think of how many thousands of Iraqi died of illness and injuries since the war started just because they were not allowed to reach a hospital or they did not find in the hospital the medication, instruments, or even doctors that could help cure them. But when Uncle Jalal (Kurdish: mam jalal. HE ACTUALLY CALLS HIMSELF THAT WAY! how creative is that, Uncle Sam-pal ?) needed medical care, then an immediate plane takes him to Jordan. I wonder if he had to stop 8 hours for investigation like all Iraqis have to do when entering Jordan. I wonder if he had to wait for 5 hours for the belated plane to take off. I wonder if he was humiliated for hours then was given one week visa only non-renewable like all Iraqis get... I just hope that uncle Jalal recovers soon, and that he and all the other figures of betrayal live long enough to face a fair and just punishment for what they did to Iraq and Iraqis...

Jordan has introduced new regulations to stem the flow of Iraqi refugees entering its territory. The law states refugees fleeing the violence in Iraq must carry a new type of passport only available since 2006. A BBC correspondent in Jordan says the law means its borders will be almost closed to Iraqis, hundreds of thousands of whom have already fled to Jordan. The new G-Series passports are issued only in Baghdad, and are often only obtainable in return for a large bribe...
