After the Vietnam war defeat and the slaughter of 2 million Vietnamese the US left without admitting the crime it committed. LBJ was so ashamed of himself, didn't run for presidency for second time. Unfortunately for Iraq, the US fell under Bush who didn't experience war nor did he litsen the generals including Shenseki who advocated larger force to stabilize Iraq. Now after two and half years, Bush is told by Iraqis to go home in shame. I wonder who benefited from this illegal invasion and occupation. for those of us who called the invasion would be a disaster for the US, Iraq and the region, it bear fruit in a way we all expected.
Israeli school segregated Ethiopian students » Ethiopian Review : "The placement of four Ethiopian girls in a separate class from their peers at a Petah Tikva grade school has sparked accusations of segregation on Tuesday morning following a report in Yediot Aharonot. According to ‘Hamerhav’ principal, Rabbi Yeshiyahu Granvich, complete integration of the girls was impossible. The reason being, said municipal workers, was that the students were not observant enough, nor did their families belong to the national-religious movement that the school was founded upon. Among the differences in the daily school life of the girls, a single teacher was responsible to teach them all of their subjects. Worse yet, the four were allotted separate recess hours and were driven to and from school separately. Such action has been labeled by observers as “apartheid.”"
