Before 2003 Iraq was like Iran, a ten thousand year old society with very little violence. Since America showed up with Israeli advisors, Israeli controlled Interior Ministry, and 75,000 mercenaries, the place has become Dante's Inferno.
LOL! Yep, the place was a virtual shangrila. It was the place to party. Please tell me you're not as stupid as your post would imply.
as strange as it may sound to u the middle class was partying every nite. i saw a documentary about a family who was followed around by a newscrew and they were saying just that, complaining that now, under usa occupation they couldn't leave their homes.
Rumsfeld and Saddam after the village killings. The chemicals for the killings came from western sources, both USA and Europe.
This is all a farcical comedy. Just like Monkeys first election. It seems under the new occupation laws, no executions can be carried out during religious holidays.

Well i must say, that was quick. Sure, the three years since capture etc, but this bit was quick. Well, maybe he shoudnt have been a brutal, mass murdering tyrannical dictator. I think theres a lesson there for everyone.
Yeah, i'll bet there shaking in their sandals. They likely would have done it themselves given the opportunity ..........
