Who are these people?

I see the names "Mohammed" and "Omar". There is no link to who they are -- though if they didn't want to give full names, I completely understand, if they live in Iraq. I have no idea what they do for a living, where they live, and where they get their information. They could be Bubba "Mohammed" Smith and George "Omar" Bradley for all I know.

I do know who they hang out with, though: observe the list of linked blogs to the right. Take a look at "Blogs: General". Cold Fury, Little Green Footballs, Malkin, Righting America, Right Wing News, Stop the ACLU (!! stop a civil rights defense organization: there's a model for you!)... As the MENSA quiz of earlier this week said, "Birds of a feather flock together."

Meanwhile, this morning on NPR's Morning Edition, I heard a piece called "Unrest Worsens in Northern Iraq" from Kirkuk about the forced segregation of schools and neighborhoods and men being fired from their jobs on account of their non-Kurdish ethnicity. Jim Crow The Model.

Should "Iraq the Model" really be dating "Stop the ACLU"? Tune in tomorrow...
