"U.S. and Iraqi authorities released more than 200 prisoners Sunday in an ongoing bid to promote national unity, but that effort faltered as Sunni Arabs demanded more releases and the Shiite-controlled parliament locked in stalemate.

Sunni Arab Vice President Tariq al-Hashimi congratulated dozens of inmates waiting at the Abu Ghraib detention center west of Baghdad to board buses carrying them to freedom. He urged the Shiite-led government to free more prisoners and demanded compensation for the former detainees."

Hm.m, U.S. military commanders are releasing enemies who fired upon and killed our soldiers and Marines while innocent military men such as RANGER Staff Sergeant Ray Girouard and MARINE Sergeant Lawrence Hutchins remain entombed in martial catacombs.

What's wrong with this political theater Lieutenant General Mattis?

Here endth the lesson.

Beware the fury of the patient man,
