RE: Gov't Screwing Troops in Iraq!!!
[div class="dcquote"][strong]Quote[/strong]
I had to chime in on this one, it's too good to pass. For our neighbors to the north who do think we went to war for the wrong reason, let me give you MY justification. Over the last 30+ years the 80% majority was ruled by the 20% minority. Thats right, Saddam's regime was the minority of the Iraqi population. Does anyone remember all the kurds he murdered HITLER STYLE???? So to the 80% or so of Iraqi's we LIBERATED from a TYRANT we are good guys. You wont see this or hear it on CNN, because like it has been said before, they get money from the political party that starts with a D. So do most networks. But that's a different issue. Did you watch tv the day that we rolled into Baghdad? Did you see his statue tumble and see the people hit the statue with their shoes? That is one of the most disrespectful things you can do in Islamic culture, to show the bottom sides of your feet to someone. The majority of people are now unafraid to say things about the government. Anyone remember that Abu Grahib was a torture prison before we got there? Saddam used it to BRUTALLY kill "political opponents" He didnt take pictures of their Wee-wees, or have them get in big naked man piles, he did things way to terrible to describe. I'm not saying that our actions in the prison are acceptable by any means, we are there to show the Iraqi people that we are not replacing one tyrant with another. But it's funny how those soldiers are getting more media attention that Nick Berg and his decapitation (that's right, if we forget the horrors being done to us, it makes GW look like a bully), which is far more inhumane than wee-wee pictures. Yep, you guessed it, the Democrat controlled media has a hand in that to make us feel bad about freeing millions of people from a guy who used nerve agents on the 1 million or so kurds(all this is verifiable). So, now dig up a video of saddam's statue falling down, find one of the "political opponents" being bound and pushed off a 4 story building, or imagine what cruel and vicious torture treatments were used in Abu Grahib before we "tortured" those people.As far as the pay goes, did you know that our last president "Slick Willy" didnot approve one pay raise over the minimum required amount for the military in his whole scandal-laden 8 year tenure?? But we still love our Canadian neighbors and their weird ways (Mayonnaise on fries???)

Why is bush using excuses of events that took place 10+ years ago to take him out now?
We all know no one gives a crap about the kurds, and sadly, no one ever will, it’s just another excuse since plan A was to go in for WMD’s FAILD.
Do you even remember what the U.S. administration during the late 80's early 90's said about the gasing of the Kurds? They said we simply cannot prove he did it, or do we have a stand on the issue. Now 15 years later, they want to revenge the Kurds after losing the WMD argument?
with all respect... my 0.02cents.
