"When it comes to education in Iraq, I always stand up to defend it. It is because of what I have studied in Iraq, I’m here America. It isn’t an ephemeral thing. It is the basis, the milestone, and the right road that I dogged.
When I first started working as a graduate assistant at the university where I am pursuing my Master’s degree in Writing Studies here in Philadelphia in fall 2006, I encountered a kind of American stereotypical incident. Answering some questions that my boss was asking, I was shocked when she asked me how I made it to come and study in the US when “education in Iraq wasn’t good.” The question left me in absolute shock. I didn’t see that coming from an educator! I told her the story of my education and how I, a young man who went through three wars and twelve-year sanctions, made it well to reach this level."

And just when I was going to comment, I find you have deleted all your post??
But by the magic of blog hosting I will bring back the part I was going to comment on anyway! Ha!
"I wasn't able to achieve that here back when I was going strong. I almost am temepted to take that as a challenge, but I know when to pick my fights, and I don't think I could put you into hiding, MT"
Boy you right wing nuts sure do think allot about yourselves don't you. You sure your not a member of some national pro family organization?
I don't usually think just about my self, and I am primarily concerned with being pro-family within my own household.
I decided to delete everything regarding THE treasure here and on his site. It wasn't bad enough that he completely made up facts about me without any basis whatsoever, he then turned on comment moderation, changed some of his most inflamatory statements, and lied about what I had written that prompted that action without publishing my own words. After making an effort to be as conciliatory as I thought I could, he made up some more BS to make himself look good. So I called him a pussy and a poor example if he ever was or planned to be a journalist---- he did publish that. So I give up and left him to mutual mental masturbation with his sycophantic readers. I predict his comments will dwindle until he opens them up again or quits entirely. That is the usual course of events.
On another tangent, with all of your reading on the WWW of the last few days developments, is your outlook for what is going on within iraq changing for the better or worse?
I decided to give the new general a chance when he was appointed. I have not changed my mind.
If I had to give an opinion now I would call it a stalemate.
From what I can see the battle fields are changing, the US has gone on the offensive, but the enemy has a proven record of adapting, so I can not count them out at this time.
Much still depend on the Iraqis themselves. I hate depending on other people, but in this fight, they have to come to the front, or our efforts will prove in vain.
dose that answer your question?
