are the iraqis better up under saddam or under the allied forces presently?

Question

how do you fell with situation in iraq presently has the lives of iraqis fares better presently?

Answer 1

First I was never thinking of the people of Iraq or cared enough to look into there countries politics until this war was declared did you? Honestly I don't believe we should have taken Saddam out of power for being a ruthless dictator. That is not our job, but then again that is not why we went there right. I lost track of the reasons why. Second, I think with the way things are going now it would be better if he was in power. There are a lot of countries that have evil dictators calling the shoots but you don't see us running to there little country because they have nothing to offer us in return for our service. That is the way of the world. Arent you sick of our Government tell you who to be mad at. I just want America to protect it own people and stop lying about why we go to war with other countries. It all BullSh*t

Answer 2

well no ultimatum here - both situations are negative, i always wonder in my ignorance whether the US would have intervened in Iraq if there were no oil resources there?

Both ways it is tragic: but I guess now that billions have been spent and the TYRANT been removed, a new government being put into place there might be hope... i pray to God that these suicide bombings will stop, because they're not doing any good to/for the Iraqi people.

Pls don't forget the lives that has been sacrificed..

Answer 3

Last year alone the allied forces uncovered mass graves in Iraq containing the bodies of over 600 thousand iraqi people, all killed by Saddams regime. Thats a lot of dead people, wouldnt you say?

Who knows how many people were killed and buried during his 30 plus year reign. I am sure it is several million, wouldn't you agree?

I think that answers your question.

Answer 4

in the time since the allied forces took over I'm almost positive that there have been less people dying compared to Saddam's regime who had control the media who would not report on the deaths of people

Answer 5

Under the allied forces, unless you're a Sunni Baathist. Their time is coming... What comes around, goes around.

The joker above me seems to feel sorry for Saddam.

Answer 6

I think, before you ask a question in English, you should learn to speak it correctly. That is how i "fell". I hope you "fare" better at learning the language than you do at asking unintelligent questions.

Answer 7

neither-- both conditions suck. Saddam was evil and needed to go but there was probably less (different at least) bloodshed in overall numbers.

Now, there are militias all over the place-- war, reprisals, asassinations of all kinds. Where were these stupid militias when sadaam was in power.

Answer 8

saddam`s iron fist was a cohessive factor to prevent this clerical bloodshed.no doubt he was evil but was a visible power figure. somethin the forces can not show with this "goverment".
they are just the same, only that they now fear more evils

Answer 9

"More Muslims have died at the hands of killers than—I say more Muslims—a lot of Muslims have died—I don't know the exact count—at Istanbul. Look at these different places around the world where there's been tremendous death and destruction because killers kill."—

Answer 10

We'll never know. They aren't free to tell and we aren't free to hear the truth! Remember we hear only what our media LETS us hear.
