ReplY to pdq

We have seen plenty of reports in the past few,weeks amd months about what "democracy" looks like in Iraq when it is brought at the barrel of a gun and via a cruise missile and a big bomb.The people of Haditha,Ishaqi and numerous other places would have loved democracy I am sure but the Marine division never brought that to the 24 men ,women and children gunned down in their own homes in Haditha.

In the same way I am sure that the Palestinian refugees in camps like Sabra and Shatilla ,Jenin and Balata would have welcomed human rights like the right not to be blown up by tank rounds or murdered by sharp knives wielded by Israeli sponsored paramilitary killersor the Israeli army.

Oh and pdq.... the people across the world who have long memories when it comes to the "democracies "brought courtesy of the CIA and its political masters...
Chile 1971
Indonesia 1966
Vietnam
Cambodia....
El Salvador
Nicaragua
Cuba
Iran 1953
Phillipines
Panama
Iraq.....even Saddam was backed by US guns and money.
and many more

Iraq had zilch to do with democracy and plenty to do with oil.
If Iraq was was the main carrot producing country in the world with no oil I dont think there would be an American soldier in Baghdad.
....its called IMPERIALISM.
