Bellon asserted that previous attempts to win trust from Iraqis suspicious of US intentions had telegraphed weakness by asking, " 'What are your needs? What are your emotional needs?' All this Oprah stuff," he said.
Oprah stuff??? Butchering people is now Oprah stuff? How did they attempt to win trust from the Iraqis? By invading their country, killing tens of thousands of innocent civilians, bombing hospitals, ambulances, journalists, torturing, poisoning their land with DU, stealing and selling off their resources to foreign corporations, and pillaging their antiquities. Now that the Oprah moment is over with, they are setting up their cities as gulags and no doubt the concentration camps will be next. But whatever happens, it can be blamed on the puppet government...
"It's the Iraqi interim government that's coming up with all these ideas," Major General Richard Natonski, who commanded the Fallujah assault and oversees its reconstruction, said of the plans for identity badges and work brigades.
The whole world needs to be outraged over this. The Nazis were defeated and the Neo-cons will be too.
