Iraqis To Bush - What Have We Done To Deserve This?
http://www.independent-media.tv/item.cfm?fmedia_id=10330&fcategory_desc=Under%20Reported

Despite Bush's endless hypocritical assertions about how we have brought freedom to Iraq, the truth is that almost all of the people in that country who have managed to survive the military attacks, have lost loved ones and had their lives ruined.


Iraqis have been telling us to leave ever since we arrived. They want to run their own country and they want an end to the torture and killing. They're willing to take the risk of believing their lives will be better without the involvement of the US.

An anonymous Iraqi woman edits the blog "Baghdad Burning," subtitled "Girl blog from Iraq." This was her message nearly a year ago on May 7, 2004, "I sometimes get emails asking me to propose solutions or make suggestions. Fine. Today's lesson: don't rape, don't torture, don't kill, and get out while you can -- while it still looks like you have a choice. ... Chaos? Civil war? We'll take our chances -- just take your puppets, your tanks, your smart weapons, your dumb politicians, your lies, your empty promises, your rapists, your sadistic torturers and go."

A fact that Bush seems to have forgotten, is that Iraq is their country. And I think the message is perfectly clear, they want us out of their country.

1. We need an Iraqi version of Michael Moore
Someone with passion and a digital video camera needs to put together a compelling documentary.

Americans love to be entertained and the only way to reach them is through the TV or at the movie theater.

3. You got YOUR oil under GOD's sand, that's what!
And I live in constant fear that Riverbend's next missive will be ler hast.
