America's Wars of Choice: Keeping Track of the Score
The U.S. is trying to maintain a perfectly reasonable occupation by force of arms in some countries that really interest us a lot, and the people won't stop hating us -- why was it, again? Oh, right: They hate us for our freedoms, according to the junior Bush. Pays to keep track.
