Only thing that would satisfy the Iraqis is if we turned Iraq into utopia

Edited on Thu Apr-08-04 08:06 PM by NNN0LHI

And you really can't blame them. They own trillions of dollars worth of sweet crude. And with that much they can damn near name their own price. Fuck OPEC. The Iraqis don't need no stinking OPEC. Someone will pay their price for the best quality oil in the world. I would put a stop to the slant drilling from Kuwait into Iraq from US and British oil companies right quick too. The Iraqis should all be living large. If I were an Iraqi I wouldn't settle for anything less than country club living with that kind of national wealth. Know what I mean?

3. Yeah. If we created utopia, they'd bomb the crap out of it.

It's not allowed to come from us, because we are the invaders.

We're just not used to being the bad guys. We're still telling our soldiers we're killing these people because we're the good guys.

4. They don't need our occupying army, they don't need our

killing machine, they don't need our democracy, they don't need our arrogance, and - most of all - they don't need our cheap-ass-holier-than-thou religiosity and bargain-basement piety.

They need us out!

At that point, they're half way to utopia.

5. I know what you mean

We could have made them an ally and probably reigned fundie islamic terror if we had simply used the billions for humanitarian aid instead of paying for bombs to kill them and line the pockets of the american facist corps...
