those kind of coutries are very different then in the west...i think it takes come dictator to run them properly because they just dont have the mindset for democracy...it cannot apply in a country where power is allwais taken and removed by guns...they are not ready for that yet...we sould have left them in peace.

do you think that if we had went in and taken out Saddam and then left it would have been a better move ?

Remember that this is not the first time a foreign occupier has set foot in the Middle East. The Brits and the French tried to occupy Iraq, Iran and the Middle East and were both driven out. Those who think they can stay in Iraq should do some research. The barbaric fools in power now think they can control a region that hates them.

In the beginning the Iraqi's were happy they had gotten rid of Sadam. Now they all want him back because, as Omar said, they had security. Iran was not interfering in Iraq and no occupier was plundering their riches. Sadam was a tyrant but he was no Nazi. Now Iraq is being ran by a regime far away and is only good for its oil. In the light of the US aggression and destruction I say the sooner that country bankrupts and destroys itself the safer the world will be.

Well done to the Coalition of War Criminals. You have successfully destroyed a nation and created an immense pool of hatred, hatred that will linger for a very long time. If you think Iranians have forgotten what the West did to them in the 1960's you are very wrong and they hate their regime they will en-masse take up arms to fight the US if the US dared set foot on Iranian soil.

Silly!1. There is no media source that is completely unbiased. The trick is to detect the bias and interpret accordingly. 2. Support Muslims, "right or wrong"? I say no! Being Muslim does not confer some sort of moral infallibility. I know nothing of the conflict in question. I only say: hold all humans to high moral standards, regardless of religion. Do NOT make allowances for your co-religionists. If anything, hold them to a HIGHER moral standard. |
