Impending Collapse Of The Iraqi Government

The US spent so much effort and billions of dollars trying to rebuild Iraq into a democratic nation, but it's quickly collapsing under the slightest of pressure. The Sunni jihadists recently drove off an Iraqi army of 30,000 with 1,000 lightly armed militants.

I suppose there will be a sharia Al-Qaeda style Sunni section in the north, and an Iranian puppet state in the south, and a third, Kurdish area.

The Russians are taking advantage of this news, and quietly moving tanks into the Eastern Ukraine.

A Good Deal

Here's a nice Android tablet for $99. It has a quad-core processor, plenty of RAM, and it's made by Hewlett-Packard, with a one-year warranty. A year and half ago, I bought a lower spec, no-name Android tablet, and I use it mostly as an e-book reader, and to check the temperature. It still works fine, and I can't justify replacing it, but I like the HP 7plus.
