My 4 year old son is having a party at his Kindergarten. He is in a group of 7 children and 4 of them will be leaving next year to go to school. It is very sad to see them go. Wula and Lukas were very special and played with Alex a lot. I hope the new kids are just as friendly. I’m getting ready to go and join the party.

The victims, a 38-year-old man from a suburb of Jakarta and his two daughters aged nine and one, died within 10 days of each other.
Americans deserve to know the truth about the circumstances under which our troops were sent to war. Was intelligence “fixed” to justify the invasion of Iraq?
