Saddam Wants To Ask You Something
U.S. death toll in Iraq passes 3,500 By KIM GAMEL, Associated Press Writer
The four-year U.S. military death toll in Iraq passed 3,500 after a soldier was reported killed in a roadside bombing in Baghdad. A British soldier was also shot to death Thursday in southern Iraq, as Western forces find themselves increasingly vulnerable under a new strategy to take the fight to the enemy.
In a rare televised interview, al-Sadr blamed the United States for Iraq's woes, often referring to it as "the occupier" and accusing it of being behind the sectarian violence, the growing schism between Iraq's majority Shiites and once-dominant Sunni Arabs and economic hardships."We are now facing a brutal Western assault against Islam," he said, draped in his traditional black robe and turban. "This agenda must be countered with a cultural resistance," he said.

And so, Saddam has just one thing to ask all of you self-proclaimed "patriotic Americans" who are determined to maintain a military force in Iraq...

I added a few more of my signs across the city to help drive home the point....

More beautiful work. Really like the Sadam one!
what genuinely worries me, and i absolutely respect what you are doing, is that some people will take comfort from the fact that it is a nation under surveillance.
great work! also loved the saddam one.
if anyone takes comfort in being under surveillance, than i suggest they were paranoid before this whole thing started!
Fear seems to be the best way to control the masses. Hmmm, maybe I should start making some scary freewayblogs.
By the way, welcome to the blog, Michael.
Funny thing happened on my way downtown today. The Saddam picture itself was still up, but the death toll sign next to it was down. Maybe the wind blew it down.
I really like the Wiretap This sign
That's one of my favorites, Mike.
dear PT,
great! i love it!
peace, peter
hey, PT--
my real concern is that, per the latest polls I've read, 26% still might answer 'yes' to the question the pic of Saddam poses.
that's scary.
Maybe that's why the sign was left alone, Two Crows.
