Definitions
Republican: Republicanism is the ideology of governing a nation as a republic. The term "republic" has been defined in many different ways, but it most often refers to a state in which sovereignty is invested in the people, rather than in a hereditary elite. Republicanism is therefore opposed to monarchy, aristocracy, oligarchy and dictatorship - though these distinctions can be somewhat vague, as constitutional monarchies share many republican ideals and a great number of dictatorships have called themselves republics.

Democrat: In political science, a democrat is an advocate, follower, or proponent of democracy. One who advocates or practices social equality is commonly referred to as a democrat.

Conservative: "a disposition to preserve, and an ability to improve".[1] The term derives from conserve; from Latin conservāre, to keep, guard, observe. Classical conservatism does not readily avail itself to the ideology of objectives.

Liberal: is an ideology, philosophical view, and political tradition which holds that liberty is the primary political value.[1] Liberalism has its roots in the Western Enlightenment, but the term now encompasses a diversity of political thought.

Four Horsemen Tackle Convoy Duty

CAMP ADDER, Iraq - The Soldiers call themselves the Four Horsemen as they barrel down roads with nicknames like "The Widowmaker," staying alert through the night on a mix of Mountain Dew, Red Bull and adrenaline, hoping to find roadside bombs before the bombs find them.

"There's always some out there. There's a threat every night," said Sgt. Brian Parker, 36, of Mankato, Minn., part of a four-Humvee convoy escort team based at Camp Adder, about 200 miles southwest of Baghdad.

Guarding convoys remains one of the most dangerous assignments in Iraq despite billions of dollars spent armoring Humvees and developing equipment to detect and evade bombs. Insurgents constantly use new ways to hit the troops on their long supply routes, and the Soldiers struggle to keep pace with the changing threat.

In keeping with their biblical Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse theme, the Soldiers' Humvees are named War, Death, Famine and Pestilence. "You mean I'm riding with Death?" asked a truck driver they were protecting.

On any given night, the 1st Brigade Combat Team, 34th Infantry Division, which includes the Four Horsemen, has more than a dozen convoys on the road. By the time they leave Iraq, the brigade will have logged 2 million miles and encountered an untold number of bombs.

So far, the brigade has lost five Soldiers from roadside bombs while guarding convoys.

The U.S. military has aggressively pursued ways to minimize the use of road convoys. It flies in supplies whenever possible. Some bases have begun purifying their own water so it doesn't have to be delivered. But the sheer amount of supplies needed, especially weighty items such as fuel, mean convoys are still needed and remain a primary target of the insurgents.

"Much of the insurgent activity in the country is aimed at trying to impede the flow of supplies to U.S. forces, and there are no easy solutions to the tactics they employ," said Loren Thompson, a defense analyst with the Arlington, Va.-based Lexington Institute.

To improve their odds against the roadside bombs, often called by the military "improvised explosive devices," or IEDs, the Minnesota unit has bulldozed brush and debris away from roadsides where the insurgency is strong.

They also have spent millions of dollars in development projects in areas near the convoy routes. The idea is that if people feel they're benefiting from the troops, they won't work for the insurgents and they'll be more likely to turn in people who are.

The Four Horsemen also constantly share information with other units who've been out on the road, to compare IED experiences and learn what new tactics are being used.

"While war has always been a cat and mouse game of action-counteraction, the IED fight epitomizes it," said Col. David Elicerio, commander of the 1/34 Brigade Combat Team.

"They rapidly develop new techniques. If proven successful, they spread that knowledge as far and as fast as possible," he said. "We do the same."

The unit doesn't make public the numbers of IEDs it has found before detonation or the number that exploded, but says the trend shows success. The brigade says that since it arrived in Iraq in April, the number of IEDs spiked in May and June, but then fell in July and again in August.

They've also increased the percentage of IEDs discovered before detonation from 10 percent in May to 37 percent in August.

But the troops remind themselves every day that the danger can't be eliminated.

One of the Soldiers killed, Brent William Koch, 22, from Monton, Minn., who died June 16, was from the same platoon as the Four Horsemen. Although he rode with another team, Koch was in their platoon and trained with them for six months before deploying to Iraq.

On the backs of each of their four Humvees, the Horsemen painted a picture of a motorcycle - after Koch's love of bikes - that incorporates his initials.

"It's a sign that Brent is always covering our six, even from above," said Day, using the military jargon for watching out for danger from behind.

Road obstacles aren't limited to bombs, or always dangerous.

They begin with the humorous interruption of stubborn camels crossing the road, and then climb up an ever-more-dangerous scale that includes spikes on the road, kids throwing rocks, small-arms fire and rocket-propelled grenades.

The explosions, such as the one that flattened a tire on one of the fuel trucks they were protecting during a recent mission, don't shock the Soldiers any more.

"I actually had a fuel tanker blow up right in front of us. An IED on the side of the road, it hit the truck, and we had to drive through a wall of fire to get to the other side," said Sgt. Jason Slinden, 23, of Hugo, Minn. "Nothing else has been quite as big as that."

Since taking over the convoy mission in May, almost every member of the team has earned a combat action badge, testifying that they've come under enemy fire or been in the vicinity of a bomb going off.

Preparation for each mission includes good-natured teasing and joke-telling. Many said they think about what can happen during a mission, but once the drive begins they put it out of their minds.

"Do I think about death? Do I think about Koch?" said the team's leader, Sgt. 1st Class Joseph Hjelmstad, 37, of Battle Lake, Minn., while rolling through the desert of southern Iraq. "Yeah. But you got to get yourself back out there."

2006-09-08 [Goodnight Nurse]: BAGHDAD, Iraq - Coalition forces handed over control of Iraq's armed forces command to the government Thursday, a move that U.S. officials have hailed as a crucial milestone on the country's difficult road to independence.

Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki signed a document taking control of Iraq's small naval and air forces and the 8th Iraqi Army Division, based in the south. However, it is still unclear how rapidly the Iraqi forces will be prepared to take over their own security.

"From today forward, the Iraqi military responsibilities will be increasingly conceived and led by Iraqis," said Gen. George Casey, the top U.S. commander in Iraq, at a ceremony.

Handing over control of the country's security to Iraqi forces is vital to any eventual drawdown of U.S. forces here. After disbanding the remaining Iraqi army following the U.S.-led invasion in 2003, coalition forces have been training the new Iraqi military.

However, it is unclear exactly how quickly Iraqi forces will be prepared to take over their own security.

Previously, the U.S.-led Multinational Forces in Iraq, commanded by Casey, gave orders to the Iraqi armed forces through a joint American-Iraqi headquarters and chain of command. Senior U.S. and coalition officers controlled army divisions but smaller units were commanded by Iraqi officers.

Now, the chain of command flows directly from the prime minister in his role as Iraqi commander in chief, through his Defense Ministry to an Iraqi military headquarters. From there, the orders go to Iraqi units on the ground. Initially, this would apply only to the 8th Iraqi Army Division, the air force and the navy.

The other nine Iraqi division remain under U.S. command, with authority gradually being transeferred. U.S. military officials said there was no specific timetable for the transition.

Days before the engagement, the 8th Division's commander, Brig. Gen. Othman al-Farhoud, told The Associated Press his forces still needed support from the U.S.-led coalition for things such as medical assistance, storage facilities and air support.

"In my opinion, it will take time," al-Farhoud said when asked how long it would take before his division was completely self-sufficient.

U.S. military spokesman Maj. Gen. William Caldwell said Wednesday it would be up to al-Maliki to decide "how rapidly he wants to move along with assuming control."

"They can move as rapidly thereafter as they want. I know, conceptually, they've talked about perhaps two divisions a month," Caldwell said.

The 8th Division was recently in the center of a fierce battle between Iraqi forces and Shiite militias. The division's troops fought militiamen in the southern city of Diwaniyah, 80 miles south of Baghdad, for 12 hours in a battle that left more than 20 soldiers and 50 militiamen dead.

Politicians have been optimistic about the handover.

President Jalal Talabani said earlier this week in a meeting with visiting British Foreign Secretary Margaret Beckett that fighting in Iraq will have abated by the end of 2007, and that Iraqi forces will be able to handle any remaining violence.

British troops handed over control to Iraqi authorities of the southern Muthanna province in July, and al-Maliki has said another southern province, Dhi Qar, is to follow this month.

Violence continued in the hours before the handover Thursday. Six bomb attacks targeting police patrols in Baghdad killed at least 17 people and wounded more than 50.

A suicide car bomb targeting a police patrol outside a gas station near the Elouya Hospital in central Baghdad killed 10 people, including four policemen, and wounded 21, police said.

Another suicide car bombing in Taiyran Square in the center of the city killed three policemen and wounded 15, the prime minister's office said. Police initially reported two civilians and two policemen were killed.

Two suicide car bombs exploded near al-Nidaa Mosque in northern Baghdad, the prime minister's office said. Nobody was hurt in the first, but the second killed three civilians and wounded 12.

Another suicide car bomb in Taiyran Square in the center of the city killed two civilians and two police special forces members, and wounded 13 people, police said.

In western Baghdad, a roadside bombing in Qahtan Square near Yarmouk hospital wounded four people, including a policeman, Mahmoud said. Elsewhere, in the upscale district of Mansour, a roadside bomb explosion killed a man and injured his daughter and another person, police said.

On Wednesday night, gunmen kidnapped the nephew of Iraq's parliament speaker, Mahmoud al-Mashhadani, in Baghdad, was kidnapped, an interior ministry official said.

Two American soldiers were killed Wednesday in separate incidents, the U.S. military command said.

One soldier, assigned to 1st Brigade, 1st Armored Division, died in the restive Anbar province west of Baghdad "due to injuries sustained from enemy action."

A second soldier, from the 3rd Brigade Combat Team, 25th Infantry Division, was killed while on a mission near Hawija, 150 miles north of Baghdad.

2006-09-17 [Kickers Livin Loud]: The culprit was discovered to be mosquitoes native to that region carrying a new strain of Malaria which thus far has a 100 percent mortality rate and kills victims in fewer than 2 days.

After death, this parasite is able to restart the heart of its victim for up to two hours after the initial demise of the person where the individual behaves in extremely violent ways from what is believed to be a combination of brain damage and a chemical released into blood during “resurrection.”

Cambodian officials say that the outbreak has been contained and the public has no need to worry.

General Ary Serey had this to say, "We have obtained samples of this new parasite and plan to learn how it starts the heart and other major organs of the deceased. We intend to use this to increase the quality of life for all."

US Secretary of State Condoleeza Rice opposed the plan saying that the Cambodian government holds a great biological weapon and should destroy it immediately. Cambodian officials have yet to comment.

A United Nations team will be dispatched to Cambodia to confirm the safety of biological research in Cambodia.
