Thread Name: BS: Butchers of Bagdad, Blair and Bush?
Subject: RE: BS: Butchers of Bagdad, Blair and Bush?
whats legally allowable in a war, feigning surrender and then attacking? hiding in schools, hospitals, mosques dressing up as women, suicide bombing, executing pows? or did those soldiers just happen to get shot in the forehead. using civilians as shields? check the aljazeera website, it shows a disabled abrams tank in baghdad the silly minister of defense bragging about slaughtering the americans and beating them off, (all the while statues of saddam fall him) (Idont care much for CNN coverage either, cause everytime they break for a commercial, its for a car - usually racing alone down some country road with no other cars in sight)
2million Iraqis died under Saddam, where was the outrage from aljazeera, or the arab world, where was the outrage about the gassing of the kurds, the torture, the plastic grinding machines.they dropped people in.
These people see saddam as a hero. Lets face it, theyre ignorant, and have been for a long time, and aljazeera is there now giving them what they want. Trouble is, most of whats wrong with the mideast is not caused by the west, its their problem. They see the west as improving all the time and feel left behind, - except their govts are riddled with corruption, women are still second class citizens ( eg I have a donkey, 3 goats, 2 sheep and a wife.) in Saudi Arabia, the skilled technical work is done by westerners, and the grunt dirty work is done by people from third world countries.
