Are hearts and minds coming over from the Dark Side? Sometimes a headline can't convey everything that's going on.

Blasts Kill At Least 64 In Iraq's Holy Cities


"I swear to God, even if they burn all the elections centers, we will still go and vote," said Ali Waili, 29, a taxi driver reached by telephone in Karbala.

"These attacks aim to destroy the country and the holy sites. This is terrorism against Shiites," said Fadhil Salman, 41, the owner of the Ghufran Hotel in Najaf. "They want to foil the elections, but this won't deter us."


Not too far from "Give me liberty or give me death" if you ask me.
