There is a story posted at Iraq Coalition Casualty Count about three women Marines. They link to an article posted in the New York Times. Read the entire article. Here are some points from the story: The women should never been in that convoy. There were not enough Marines or vehicles. Some of the vehicles were amphibious types or trucks without armor. This is a horrible example of how this war is being conducted. We need an exit strategy to get our sons and daughters home.
According to the New York Times, "Counterterrorism agents at the Federal Bureau of Investigation have conducted numerous surveillance and intelligence-gathering operations that involved, at least indirectly, groups active in causes as diverse as the environment, animal cruelty and poverty relief, newly disclosed agency records show..."
"...One F.B.I. document indicates that agents in Indianapolis planned to conduct surveillance as part of a "Vegan Community Project." Another document talks of the Catholic Workers group's "semi-communistic ideology." A third indicates the bureau's interest in determining the location of a protest over llama fur planned by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals."
I've never heard of dangerous vegans! Catholics? Llamas? What the heck is going on?
