How damaged is the US by the row over its use of white phosphorus in Fallujah last year?
X Files Opened: The National Security Agency's UFO Investigations.

And here's a taste of sarcasm from the religious right: Beware of the evangelical cabal!
Pretended to read any good books lately? For the record: The last book I read was a romance novel about a petite blondvampire slayer werewolf hunter, Hunter's Moon by Lori Handeland.
