Why do Americans deny the fact that the Iraq war resembles the holocaust?

Question

for you it may not seem that way, but for the millions of poor innocent Iraqi civilians - it does.

Answer 1

Yes, pity those poor people, having to endure our efforts to bring them schools, clean water and sanitation, and build them roads.

It's really awful.

Answer 2

no-you could nonetheless unquestionably examine the holocaust to what's happening with the sorrowful tragic activities what some Islamists now call Palestine..a popularity given via the British to the Arabs residing there..At one time Arabs & Jews lived peacefully yet now desire to throw Jews/Christians into the sea,asserting non Muslims are infidles.. Many Arabs as properly as Christians do stay in Israel,one Arab is a member of the Knesset Israels ruling party..The IDF purely fires a rocket or 2 into Gaza after Hamas bombings..And purpose the place the bombs got here from..Too undesirable Hamas hides between women/babies different harmless human beings.. Israel isn't attempting to exterminate Muslims,presented them a state which Hamas refused.for this reason,won't be able to examine this with the holocaust! As to Iraq,if the struggling with between the Shites & Sunni's do no longer give up,could be comparable tho' no longer the comparable via fact the holocaust..

Answer 3

I am not agree with the war in iraq but comparing the war in iraq to the holocaust is a BS annaology. Yes, people are being killed collaterally as a result of war but that is unavoidable. Did the bush administration lie about iraq obivousally. Should we be there anymore probably not. But, it is not like iraqi's were safe and happy under sadam.

Answer 4

Unlike most of the obviously uninformed posters to your question, and although I think comparing it to a the holocaust is a stretch, We definitely have not improved life for the average Iraqi. Prior to the US invasion the country did have clean water, electricity and other state run public works. Today 2/3rds of the country do not, and even the ones that do have rolling blackouts. Iraq was the most westernized country in the Middle East, women drove cars and held high positions in the government and work places, today they were burkas again and Islamic Law (Sharia) is the only true law (like Iran) instead of the Secular State run by Saddam. One of Al-Qaeda's stated goals was not only to remove teh US from the Middle East, but to remove Secular States (like Saddams) from the region as well. We have not in the last 4 years built schools and shored up their infrastructure, a Congressional audit recently found that over $800,000 million dollars in tax payers money that went to Iraq is not traceable and they don't know what it was spent on, but definitely not what we were told it was spent on. Yes Saddam was executed for killing 182 Shiite in 1982. They were 182 Shiite terrorist (predecessors of those aligned with al-qaeda today) that were plotting to overthrow him and his government, and they were killed with American made Chemical weapons, administered with American Helicopters, but people don't want to hear that, because it doesn't sit well with them (cognitive dissonance).

Answer 5

And so did Vietnam, Korea, WWII, WWI, the Indian Wars, the Civil War, the War of 1812, and the Revolutionary War.

All wars do. That's the nature of war.

Answer 6

Nobody likes war
so why did we get attacked
In-tell says Iraq and Afghanistan is where we attack for retaliation so far. when In-tell says other country then we attack there too. you have objections to this?

Answer 7

My sympathies goes for the people of Iraq.

Not all Americans deny the horror created by neocon zionists funded by Evangelical charlatans and blessed by a lying Bush
There is still decency in Americans hearts to recognize the horrific act of Barbarians committed by neocons..

Answer 8

Because it's not true. Did you worry about the poor Iraqis when Saddam was abusing them, "Tiger"? I bet not.

By the way, why are you trying so hard to get into a country that is supposedly committing a 'holocaust' on another country? Stay away.

Answer 9

You need to visit Saddam's mass murder graves if you want to get a sense of the Holocaust. How ridiculous to pass this off as "fact".

Answer 10

Muslins committing the genocide. Muslims killing muslims. They're doing it in the Sudan too. They're going nuts all over the world actually.

Answer 11

I think you should spell-out how this looks like the holocaust to you because I'm not seeing it. You are really insulting holocaust victims and survivors. To compare this is ludicrous.
