   At least she represents one. I agree that sending the whole US military   
   against her would be a bit excessive.   
   What about sending her to Guantanamo   
   or maybe Abu Ghraib?   
   I hear they have facilities for female prisoners in both places.

   The US Aministration presently "attempts to harm Kurdish interests"  in   
   Northern Iraq, as perceived by the majority of the population in the   
   Kurdish autonomous zone.
