'Well, You Try To Reconstruct Iraq,' Says U.S. Defensive Dept.

WASHINGTON, DC—Responding to recent criticism of reconstruction efforts in Iraq, the U.S. Defensive Department released a statement to the public Monday suggesting that perhaps they could do better, since they're obviously so smart.

非常有趣。想想当时看新闻时，萨达姆堂堂一国元首像个小丑一样被拉来拉去，然后毫无尊严的被杀死——而且是被别的国家宣判而处死，情不自禁的想，如果换成是中国的元首会怎么样？

战争，如果发生了？我们会怎么样呢？我们的老百姓会不会也因为某些特权阶级被打倒而欢呼？至少我知道，我们已经习惯了不发声音，无论头上的主子如何变来变去，始终都是这么默默的生存着。

 以太阳的名义

 黑暗公开地掠夺

 沉默依然是东方的故事

 人民在古老的壁画上

 默默地永生

 默默地死去
