RE: So, where's the crispy children...
> Hey B the "liberated" think the reason that S was not found/killed was that the "Liberators" are keeping him as a fear inducer (bogey man) and that he will be back in 10 years.
Yeah, well 'word in the street' isn't a reliable source of news.
> ...waiting to see picture of S and Rummy shaking hands in another 10 years
There's a few of Saddam shaking Kofi's hands...I've seen a few of Tariq shaking the pope's hands as well..
> the liberators who implanted saddam some twenty years ago.....are now the captors.
BULLSHIT. Saddam TOOK power. The 'western' powers did not put him there...he got more help from the USSR and the French then the Yanks and the Poms anyway.
> the people caught in the middle of these two forces...the iraqis themselves.....they are of little consequence to those who's aim will always be power and control.....and world hegemony. if the people of iraq ever mattered to us.....the forces of freedom....we'd have never embedded a guy like saddam in the lush state of power which we were so eager to appoint him.
Crap. Saddam once was a tool 'against' muslim fudamentalism...a tool in the divide and rule game the west played...nothing more nothing less.
> if he only he could've kept his people down FOR US...things would've stayed great! saddam's problem was he just forgot who was BOSS around this marble.
Look, the US and the UK are hypocrites...I'm not arguing that...they are probably after that oil or whatever...still I consider these people to be somewhat more 'free' and thus I call em liberated. Cynical people might even consider the role the US played in WW2 as 'just playing their part out of own interest'..I couldn't care less. Obiously your parents/grandparents never had to suffer occupation or dictatorship, otherwise you'd understand why it's bloody irrelevant what the 'ture motives' of your liberators are. As long as you regain your freedom (or some of it) and gain the hope of a better life you couldn't give a rats arse.
