It looks like popular resentment is growing against the occupation. A few months ago, this level of reaction was unheard of. Now the Iraqi people are starting to hate the human rights violations of US soldiers as well as their cultural insensitivity (the US continues to raid houses).

I just read Tariq Ali's new Book, Bush in Babylon. It explains how the Iraqi people have never accepted occupation, either by the British or now the Americans. They have always fought foriegn imposed regimes such as the Monarchy that exited until 1958.

The whole idea of FORCING democracy is really stupid. It violates the whole concept of a democracy. Finally the Iraqi people realize this. Keep up the fight!

I agree forcing people into a type of government is stupid and imperialistic.I say they should pick what type of government they want.

The imperialists say that they are bringing "democracy" to iraq. But so far, no elections.

Maybe they are scared that the iraqis would vote the alien occupiers out of their country?

Yeah right....like Saddam gave them the choice?????? ROFL you guys are too much! I understand that many hate the US (I dont really care but I do certainly understand it) but cant anybody admitt that Iraq is better off without a dictator like Saddam? Does your hate for the US really infect people to the level that they would cheer a murdering dog like Saddam?????

Well in like a blade cuts on both sides, so is the thing about the USA in Iraq. In one way they were a positive influence since they removed the despot Saddam. They may not have found any clear evidence of weapons of mass destruction but he was a menance for his people. And it was only normal they stayed some time after they defeated Saddam but now how many months have passed and they are still in control of the country. That is a negative influence they should have given the power to the people and see how they decide who will take control of the country, but they won't since they are way too busy thinking about how they can claim the Iraqee oil reserves for themselves (Iraq has the highest amount of oilreserves in the world + 10% of the total amount). And the people they see fit to rule the country are just a asskissings dumbasses that see no harm in being the puppets for America. Iraq has never been a fight for terrorism, the real terrorism is funded by Saudi-Arabië since they have the means and the desire for such actions but America dares not accuse them since they have the biggest oil stock in the world and have such a capital that they can strike back hard. At the end one must see that the etire crisis in Iraq is more a display of American greed and ignorance than of a benchmark in the fight against terrorism.

Fox, it is too soon to leave Iraq.......if we left now (or several months ago) the members of Saddams ruling party would seize power back. Power can and will be given to the Iraqi people but it will take time. Dont fall for the propaganda about claiming the oil.....hey if we would have wanted it we would have done it already. Hell the fight in the Congress is weather or not to make the money for the rebuilding a loan or a grant. If we wanted to make it a loan that would be seen the wrong way.....I have seen very little about the new Iraqi leaders....anybody who is working with our forces will be slandered as lackeys for the US won't they? There were terror training camps in Iraq.......and yes, something smells in Saudi Arabia also, I agree. I think the removal of Saddam was in fact more in kin to removing a cancer in the region to save the whole place. Saddam was the most de-stabilizing figure in the Middle East. Get rid of him and it will be easier to root out the terrorists.

Well you couldn&#39;t get the oil reserves if you wanted, since the oil machines were damaged during and after the war and it would be useless to drain the rescources since they main purpose is as reserve and not to be used immediatly. Well you have a valid point that servants of the old regime could claim the power once the allied and american forces would have left. But do you really think they have the strength to oppose the people&#39;s will and not to forget if they would try to claim the power agian that there would be a etire strike force back in Iraq within the 48 hours they would have assumed control. I think they won&#39;t approach the power anymore in a direct way but try to terrorise the current power forces.

PS: in the future don&#39;t double post but quote both of the people above you in one post ;)

If the answer is no, then you cannot say that the US should stay in Iraq.

GWB is responsible for many innocent civilian deaths.

Yes, I do. Since we invaded them we should stay unill they have some sort of representative government. To leave now would be stupid and would be inviting Saddam to try to return. It took several years before Germany and Japan were ready to be on their own....why does everybody have their panties in a wad about our not leaving yet??? It has only been 6 months&#33; Can you please point out to me the "many civilian deaths" GWB has been responsible for and in wich country?

Well this is such a hard topic really, I think Saddam will always try to come back in some way, but it will be hard to do it in a direct way, he knows that and will try a more subjective way. But the USA can stay 6 months or 6 years they won&#39;t change the hearts of the people and how longer they stay there, the more anti-us they will become. And how much money and manlives does this occupation not cost, it is really not my concern but I think the american tax payers don&#39;t like the fact they have to spent money to control a people that lives so many km away from them.

civilian deaths in Iraq and afganistan, I know the CNN and FOX networks dont show the US public anywhere near the full extent of what actually happens, I was living in England at the time and we got to see alot more that the US public did, many civilians were killed, but its nothing new for the US. Take Vietnam or somalia for example, many many civilian deaths

You saw more that was true, but you saw almost nothing. The truth is coverd up in both US and UK enovirments. If people saw the truth, they would be way more anti-occupation than they are now. But a cover up of the truth by the media is nothing new, they don&#39;t want to lose any goverment funds or help by publishing rather nasty things about their campaign. But like in any war the soldiers were cruel against the population of the country they had to conquer that happens in every war and I fail to see what is new in the war in Iraq ...

So you have sympathy for a man that created order in a country thanx to violence, cruelties and others. You sound like a Stalinist. Well their was always hate in the Iraqee people when under Saddam or under USA control since that you can&#39;t achieve a goverment that every group is satisfied with. I won&#39;t judge the raid on Iraq but I do judge the occupation of Iraq. Let the people decide who they want as leader and see how it goes, they can always go back if they see fit and hopefully that time for some valid reasons ;)

Than my apoligies. Nobody likes to be occupated by a foreign people, so it&#39;s only normal that Iraq people don&#39;t like the US in their country. But the explanation of the US gets weaker and gets more lies when the days passes. If they really came to anhilate saddam than they should already have left but no , they plan to stay there for a long time and the US doesn&#39;t only harm the Iraq people with such politics but also the american people since the occupation costs them their sons/fathers/husbands/daughters/mothers/wives and not to forget the taxes they have to pay to support the military.

No....I&#39;m saying if you give me a gun, knowing full well that I have sociopathic behavior and that I&#39;ve been saying that I would like to kill those school children, then yes, you are as bad as me.

Are you insinuating that the U&#036; had no prior knowledge of what kind of guy Saddam was? He never expressed any interest in battling Iran? That&#39;s pure naivitae.

Ever heard the term accomplice? In the U&#036;, there is a law that if you have prior knowledge of a killing, or assist in the killing and do nothing or don&#39;t report it, you are considered an accessory to the crime and face similar punishment.

No one is saying Saddam is a sweet fellow, but equal blame can be laid squarely on his "handlers".

True you could argue that, and I actually belive that the USA did know what Saddam was like, but I doubt they quite expected him to launch a murderous campain against the Kurds, the Shi&#39;a, the oppersition... Oh yeah and the Kuaites. Well the obviously didnt expect the last, as Kuaite was selling the USA oil.

Saddam was enabled by the U&#036; for all of his attrocities. That makes the U&#036;, GW I and GW II every bit as bad if not worse.

Spare me with this U&#036; righteous bullshit. [/b]
The prisoners at Guantanamo have it far easier than they ever did in Afganistan fighting for the Taliban. (going to defend the Taliban also?)

The "Mile of Death" was a colum of miltary vehicles filled with loot stolen from Kuwate City...it was a legitimat military target. If you were really informed about history then you would know that Bush 41 stopped the attack after the first day to the amazement of the Air Force.

If you consider news from leftist sources "real news" then you are the one who need to get out more. I read many different sources every to try and get a balanced pic of the news.....what sources do you read?


We did indeed support Saddam when we felt he would be a stable alternative to the Islamic revolution then going on in Iran. But guess what?? times change and so do alliances......Stalin enabled Hitler to attack Poland but then became an enemy of Germany....so nice try.

True, if you see the evolution of Europe you will see how many alliances there have been between various countries. But you can&#39;t really take Stalin and Hitler&#39;s alliance as example since Hitler betrayed Stalin and I don&#39;t see how Iraq betrayed America in any way. If you really want to give a good example than take Europe before the industrial revolution as example since your example of Stalin and Hitler can&#39;t be compared to Iraq and USA ;)

I don&#39;t really have to defend the Taliban do I? I mean the U&#036; did a fine job of that when we were using them to fight the Russians.

The mile of death was a (now pay close attention here) RETREATING column. According to the Geneva conventions, it&#39;s illegal (as well as immoral) to attack a retreating force. As far as the "loot" stolen from Kuwait, I&#39;m sure it doesn&#39;t make up for the oil stolen from Iraqs oil fields by Kuwait. As far as Bush I stopping the attack after the first day, (and it was Colin Powell by the way), please tell me, in that column what was left to attack?

As far as what sources I read, I read and watch many. CNN, BBC, Reuters, Al Jazeera etc. Leftist media... :lol: :lol:

Enigma,


True you could argue that, and I actually belive that the USA did know what Saddam was like, but I doubt they quite expected him to launch a murderous campain against the Kurds, the Shi&#39;a, the oppersition... Oh yeah and the Kuaites. Well the obviously didnt expect the last, as Kuaite was selling the USA oil.

I don&#39;t know why we didn&#39;t expect him to kill the Kurds, we were provoking them to attack him. We definitely knew he was going after Kuwait. Iraq asked Ambassador Glaspie for an opinion of an invasion to which was replied " The U&#036; has no opinion on Arab against Arab conflict." If that wasn&#39;t a clear indication of a possible invasion then I don&#39;t know what is.



Yeah I had heard of that term before, but why dont they arrest all gun shop owners in America? Considering that they know that some of these purchased arms will be used to kill people?

It is illegal to sell a gun in the U&#036; without a full backround check and 5 day waiting period. That&#39;s called due dilligence. Of course you can&#39;t hold a gun seller responsible for someone who may have checked out okay and then decided to go on a rampage. You could reasonably however, hold a gun seller responsible for selling a gun to a convicted/escaped killer.

That can be that the law is a tough law, but we both know that some laws aren&#39;t respected and even the punishment for those that offend is hard, most of them skip it and I am sure that in some states they don&#39;t even bother to enforce such laws.

Gee do you think the US will torture Iraqi athletes if they dont win a gold medal in the Olympics? Unless you think random torture is a good idea. I dont suppose you will show how the US is keeping people fed....is restoring water and elec service to better than pre-war levels......how the economy is being spurred by small businessmen all over Iraq......if you really believe deep in your heart that the US really treats Iraqis the same or worse than Saddam did then you are living in a different world that reality does not penetrate.

Before shooting your mouth off, perhaps you should actually read the facts.


Incinerated body of an Iraqi soldier on the "Highway of Death," a name the press has given to the road from Mutlaa, Kuwait, to Basra, Iraq. U.S. planes immobilized the convoy by disabling vehicles at its front and rear, then bombing and straffing the resulting traffic jam for hours. More than 2,000 vehicles and tens of thousands of charred and dismembered bodies littered the sixty miles of highway. The clear rapid incineration of the human being [pictured above] suggests the use of napalm, phosphorus, or other incindiary bombs. These are anti-personnel weapons outlawed under the 1977 Geneva Protocols. This massive attack occurred after Saddam Hussein announced a complete troop withdrawl from Kuwait in compliance with UN Resolution 660. Such a massacre of withdrawing Iraqi soldiers violates the Geneva Convention of 1949, common article 3, which outlaws the killing of soldiers who "are out of combat." There are, in addition, strong indications that many of those killed were Palestinian and Kuwaiti civilians trying to escape the impending seige of Kuwait City and the return of Kuwaiti armed forces. No attempt was made by U.S. military command to distinguish between military personnel and civilians on the "highway of death." The whole intent of international law with regard to war is to prevent just this sort of indescriminate and excessive use of force.

Ramsey Clark is only more credible in YOUR eyes because he turned so rabidly anti-American in the early 70&#39;s. I am saying that by asking Iraqs neighbors about Saddam is more credible than what you or even Ramsey Clark thinks. Kuwait loaned Saddam billions to fight the Iran war.....when they had the nerve to call in the loan, Iraq invaded them. Because I defend my country does not gove you the right to accuse me of having racist feelings and attitudes like the members of Stormfront.

I would suggest that Ramsey Clark did not turn "rabidly anti-american", rather he turned anti imperialist. I think if Ramsey were to reply to that statement, he would say he is practicing being a good american, exercising his freedom of speech. Only the right wing refers to him and his ilk, (Chomsky, Blum, Zinn, Ivens, etc) as anti-american.

Please provide some reading material (links) describing the attack of Kuwait by the Iraqi&#39;s because of recalled debt.

I like most of the world have read and understand the attack to be centered around a valuable oil field on the Iraq/Kuwait border and the control of an important seaport depot.

The case has been made that Kuwait was slant drilling into the Iraqi oilfields, costing (actually stealing) the Iraqi&#39;s millions of dollars.

I&#39;ve noticed that you never really provide any proof or links to any of your statements. You (like most of the right wing) just claim everything is from the leftist media and therefore out of hand discredit it.

I hate to say this but the US is never getting out of Iraq - the prize is too great - The new Iraq government MUST serve US interests - What form of government , be it dictatorship , Islamic rule , democracy ... I doubt matters much.

The Vietnam situation is different because of the military draft which directly affected each citizen personally - Troop losses only affects those familes and friends connected with them - For every one else , though one may feel bad , life goes on as normal - I wouldn&#39;t be too confident about US popular opinion .

As far as troop morale. Yep serious losses could definataly cause unrest within the units but they didn&#39;t enlist just to sit around the barracks all day - They want action -The video game that shoots back - What could be more exciting than that . Sad but true..

I missed the news today, anything intresting happend in Iraq ?

The attack on the Italian compound is the major news. 31 dead, many wounded when I last checked. Already, enormous pressure is being mounted on the Berlusconi government . Though he has pledged more troops I wonder if this is a new phase in the "iraqi resistance" ?

As SunTze said : "Attack their alliances".

If this is indeed an attempt to split the coalition then which coalition nation is next on the list?

Here&#39;s a breakdown of the coalition members:

Two US helicopters have crashed in Iraq, killing 12 coalition soldiers and injuring nine, the US military says.
Both UH-60 Black Hawk helicopters - assigned to the 101st Airborne Division - crashed in the northern city of Mosul at about 1830 local time (1430GMT).

A rapid reaction force secured the area but US officials said the cause of the crash was currently "unknown".

Unconfirmed reports suggest one of the helicopters was hit by a rocket- propelled grenade.

Iraq attack &#39;disrupts oil output&#39;


An important gas pipeline has been blown up in northern Iraq.
The resulting fire was so huge the glow could be seen in the night sky in the town of Kirkuk, 30 kilometres (20 miles) away, say reports.

The attack is expected to cause disruption to production at Iraq&#39;s largest oil refinery, officials say.

Amid continuing violence, coalition officials have suspended civilian flights into Baghdad airport after a missile attack on a plane on Saturday.

The Jordanian carrier Royal Wings and DHL courier company have both been ordered to suspend flights.

The fact that you are enjoying Kapitan Andrey&#39;s bullshit just reinforces the fact you&#39;re an idiot.

The majority of the Iraqi people do not support Saddam Hussein, but they equally do not want the U.S in their country. And I think if we see Saddam killed alot more of the Iraqi people will (unfortuantely) join the U.S&#39;s side of things. You see, they remember what happened last time when the yanks pulled out without finishing the job, this time I think they are holding their support until they know that Saddam is done for.

US Army helicopter has been shot down near the Iraqi town of Falluja, killing one soldier and injuring another, the US military says.
US General Mark Kimmitt said the coalition was "fairly convinced" the OH-58 Delta Kiowa Warrior helicopter was brought down "by enemy fire".

The incident happened at about 12.20pm (0920 GMT) on Friday west of Baghdad, a US Central Command statement said.
