...failure of Forward Together is a blow to the Bush Administration's hopes of quickly scaling down the U.S. military presence. With some 7,200 American and coalition soldiers joining 42,500 Iraqis, the operation was meant to showcase the growing ability of Iraqi security forces to protect their citizens.

It's a discussion worth having, if we can sort out our real interests and purposes in this affair...
...Vendetta James McTeigue V, the hero of this dystopic fantasy, is a modern Guy Fawkes, the 17th century Romanist who tried to blow up Parliament. Four centuries later, he is a masked man with a mission: to expose, and explode, the state's dictatorial power. Scripters Andy and Larry Wachowski match their work on The Matrix, fashioning a ripping action yarn that is also a provocative political statement (justifying violence against authority). This V is for Vivid, Vexing and Very good. Petulia Richard Lester Gorgeous, desperately madcap Petulia (Julie Christie) needs a Galahad to rescue her from marriage...
