Its part of their culture, and a big chunk of the economy too. [link to www.csmonitor.com] Oh, and we armed the Afghanis to fight the Soviets at one point. Under Osama and the Fedayeen, they succeeded in defeating the Soviet Union in a long and bloody conflict, but now we're reaping what we sewed... [link to en.wikipedia.org] [link to news.bbc.co.uk] We also sent a great deal of guns to Iraq so they could fight Iran back in the 1980's. [link to en.wikipedia.org] Unfortunately, those AK-47s and RPG launchers last practically forever. Also, Iraq has imported a lot of firepower from Russia, including GPS scramblers: [link to www.foxnews.com] And that's just the Fox News and Wikipedia version of what happened!

NotReallyHuman_ User ID: 190357 United States 02/08/2007 05:50 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | ---and what country is that? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 131547---are you saying that since the US freed up that cash, the iraqi government is now using it against us? ..would you blame them if they did? The US did invade their country and is waging a war with NO MERIT. Just because they couldn't get Osama in Afghanistan, they had to turn tail and go to Iraq? If you think they wouldn't use the cash for their own honor, you're mistaken...and to send pallets of cash only means it was readily available to be used at their own discretion. Their country is in shambles, their honor has been soiled by the same people that claim to be helping them and for what? A stake in their oil because the US can't produce enough of it's own while shunning off alternative fuels? Do you remember the bush administration wanting to drill in Alaska in 2000? Do you remember how it was vehemently rejected by ALL? Now, they finally got an ok to drill up there....and WHY? See through the Bullshit like glass...it's all in the open..Don't think that money was sent to Baghdad for 'humanitarian aid' because many of those people still don't have electricity...Mission Accomplished? BULLSHIT! Lies Lies Lies on top of more Lies...how can you as a human being support such atrocities? ...that was a rhetorical question, I guess much in the same way the Nazi's had supporters, through fear and dominance over the mentally-challenged... ..I provided a link, you were proven wrong....accept it and don't let pride overrule your chance to be a human being. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 54848[link to www.csmonitor.com] So the ....'problem' is...that the Iraqi people are well armed, well motivated, and able to defend their country from foriegn invasion? This might be a 'problem' for Lord Bush and his Legionaires, but I kinda doubt if the Iraqis see it that way. I'd bet that those Iraqis are damm glad they've got the firepower they need to kick some ziostooge ass. There's a lesson to be learned here, my fellow Americans. Go buy yourself a good rifle, at least 1,000 rounds of ammunition, and learn how to use it. Becuase the day is coming when it will be time to liberate our OWN country from foriegn domination. |
