http://informasi-beasiswa.blogspot.com **Tadi pagi sempet nonton berita di 
Metro sebentar banget. PM Irak ada 
berkunjung ke AS, yang rencananya mau memberikan speech didepan 
kongres AS. Namun, dalam kata sambutannya (ketika PM IRak ini tiba), 
sepertinya tiba-tiba saja PM Irak ini mengatakan dan meminta AS 
untuk membuat genjatan senjata.

Langsung saja kongres AS mengungkapkan rasa kecewanya kepada PM Irak 
(karena dianggapnya Irak telah menjadi sekutu dan mendukung AS) dan 
akan memboikot (meng'cancel' kali) 'speech' PM Irak hari ini didepan 
kongres AS bila PM Irak tidak menjelaskan dimana posisi dia 
sebenarnya.

Ada yang punya berita lengkapnya gak?, takut salah tangkep...:-)

wassalam,

NB: serangan mereka memang membabi buta, karena yang menyerang 
memang babi buta. Maklum aja.
