For what can you call what is happening in Iraq in the first decade of the twenty-first century anything but genocide, the complete and systematic decimation – the annihilation – of an entire culture, of an entire society, of an entire nation? What do you call the death, by violent American murderers, state sponsored terrorism, American birthed civil war, of 655,000 human beings if not mass murder, genocide, the genesis of Holocaust? Two to three percent of the Iraqi population has been exterminated, never to breathe life again, never to see children grow up, never to see mothers give birth or see fathers become proud grandfathers. Two to three percent of Iraq’s people lie six feet under, buried under the massive and monstrous American military machine. If two to three percent of America was killed in the span of three years, a number reaching 6 to 9 million individuals, what would happen to the United States?

What would happen if a city the size of Los Angeles or New York or Chicago was wiped off the face of the nation? The equivalent of this hypothetical is happening today in Iraq.
Entire families have disappeared, entire ways of life extinguished; the devastation of daily anarchy, occupation, chaos, thirst for vengeance and civil war results in several hundred deaths by murder every single day in Iraq. Every month in Iraq at least 3,000 civilians die at the hands of human wickedness, creating an Iraqi 9/11 every 30 days, every 720 hours.

Not all of us support the monkey in charge or the religious culture that follow him. They did the same thing to our own native people hundreds of years ago! We are fighting it here too!
Blessed Be....

I hear you, and believe me when I say I want our boys out of Iraq ASAP, but what do you really think would happen in Iraq if all of a sudden we just packed up and left? I mean really. Would everything just work itself out immediately and become sunshine and roses. Unfortunately, I must say that the argument that Americans shouldn't be in Iraq anymore is somewhat flawed, however, the same can be said for the arguement that Americans being in Iraq is helping the situtation. But perhaps even more flawed is the logic that an American occupation gives Iraqis the right to murder eachother because the blame should lie with America.

While I do not support this war, I must say that the numbers you cite are not only inflated greatly, but also do not make clear what the percentage of dead Iraqis are dead because of their sweet, kind fellow Iraqis. And do these figures include the 100,000 or so that Saddam Hussein did in?
This war was at the very least a total mistake and is a failure. But it is Iraqis who are doing the civil war - Americans would prefer that they behaved themselves and got together with each other to use the money we toss into Iraq to rebuild and live with each other in peace.
I think, even though I do not support this war, that you should clean up your own act before you run round complaining about others.

Why did WTC get attacked? Why do Iraq people protest against a new govt that did not help them with jobs or peace aired on TV last nite 'My Iraq' I think. Why does your religious books call for violence by takeover? Why does your pres be so presumptuous as to decide to wipe out people that believe a different way? It's a fact that your own extremist groups resorted to killing your own to blame it on Jews during the war? Why is US blamed for trying to stop your 'Madi' (messiah) when majority doesn't even know the name? Finally, did you know Muslim people majority would love to live like a normal family unit in peace? Does your God warn of heaven or hell? Eternal destination is what it's all about, isn't it?

The problem is most of the violence is Muslim on Muslim violence. Had the US wanted to kill everyone in Iraq we couldve accomplshed that with 1 weeks worth of air strikes or a nuclear weapon.
In case you havent been watching the news, our mission was to get rid of Saddam Hussien and help them establish a democracy which is now happening. What is being done to help keep the violence to a minimum is being done but the problem is our military are not police. Theyre trying to do a job theyre not necesarily trained for and doing the best they can. Im afraid your liberal nazi theory has no merit and Im shocked I wasted this much time refuting it and trying to talk sense into a liberal who isnt in touch with reality.

Do you blame all Germans for the Holocaust? Of course not. If you knew anything, you would know that most Americans oppose the war in Iraq. However, with the current system there is little that we can do to put a stop to this. Do not be so ignorant as to label all Americans as hate-filled.

Last I checked they were killing each other,if they would put their hatreds of each other aside and build a govt we would already be gone. Funny how no one ever complained about the uncountable killings of Saddam,but then again I've found that people who are so hard on America are usually the supporters of people like Saddam.

After what the people of Iraq has done to other, where do you find the nerve to condemn American for doing to you what you have done to others over many, many years. You have not only maimed and butchered the children of others but you have also murdered and butchered your own so take your own bull-shite and shove it up your own butt. You are just another butcher yelling foul because you can't win........................

what about 911 when the hijackers came over here using planes as weapons and killed thousands of people. We are not thought to hate people. We do not carry guns as soon as we can walk. Is America just suppost to sit back and let the terriosts come over here and attack anytime they want to.What about Suddam who killed millions of people just because they didn't agree with him.

So you are a student of the CNN (communist news network), you believe in cooked up numbers for sensationalism without checking the facts. Since you hate here so much, go live in Iraq and tell them how horrible they are about raping women, killing children all in the name of Allah. People like you make me want to puke. America doesn't need you.

We need to do as much killing as necessary to assure the type of peaceful existence we enjoyed before 9/11/01. In my opinion, we haven't yet scratched the surface...
