26. What about the fact that Iraq is not our country, don't you understand?
Edited on Thu Jun-03-04 06:05 PM by RapidCreek
Iraq is not the United States....It is Iraq. It belongs to Iraqi's, not Americans. Iraqi's don't want Americans in their country, bullying them, privatizing/stealing their national treasures, ordering them what to do and of course killing them, or throwing them into prison if they fail to acquiesce. No one made the 4 Americans you speak of go to Iraq. They did so to aid and abet war profiteers who are robbing Iraq and they damn well knew that.

If you break into my house, steal from me and have the audacity to tell me, in commission of your thievery, that it is for my own good, that you do what you do...you're going to end up with a nine millimeter chunk of lead between your eyes.

I find it somewhat odd that you hold Iraqi's to a higher standard of behavior than you would the average American faced with the same situation.

Tell you what pal...On the outside chance the Iraqi Army invaded the US and saved us from an American version of Saddam Hussein...then stuck around with their boots on our necks while Armed Iraqi war profiteers showed up in our towns, in-sourcing employees to do our jobs, usurping control of our resources and control of our local governments they'd meet a damned sight worse fate than the four sons of bitches your are whining about. What, the people in your town, I suppose, would give them the run of things, right? Welcome them with warm handshakes and invites for dinner? Yea right, give me a break. Guys like you would be the first ones loading up your stashed full auto mini-14's with thirty shot clips.
