rhino 0 #1 May 27, 2004 Got this from a friend today.. I must say that I agree... I am not condoning what happened to the Iraqi prisoners...however, I think it is vitally important that in my head I have these matters in proper perspective... * Saddam had Iraqi men, women and children put to death in human meat grinders on a daily basis...NO OUTCRY FROM THE IRAQI PEOPLE OR THE ARAB COMMUNITY... *Saddam had people thrown off of 3 - 4 story buildings, while their relatives were forced to watch...NO OUTCRY FROM THE IRAQI PEOPLE OR THE ARAB COMMUNITY... * Saddam had people's tongues cut out, limbs chopped of, and even beheaded, while their families were forced to watch...NO OUTCRY FROM THE IRAQI PEOPLE OR THE ARAB COMMUNITY... * Saddam's sons, as well as other Administrators and military personnel raped and sodomized Iraqi girls, some as young as 8 years old, on a daily basis...NO OUTCRY FROM THE IRAQI PEOPLE OR THE ARAB COMMUNITY... * Saddam's regime indiscriminately put to death millions of Iraqi citizens on a daily basis, during the term of his brutal dictatorship, as evidenced by the mass graves recently uncovered in various parts of Iraq...NO OUTCRY FROM THE IRAQI PEOPLE OR THE ARAB COMMUNITY... * Terrorists recently exploded several car bombs in Baghdad, killing 17 innocent Iraqi children and several dozen innocent Iraqi citizens...NO OUTCRY FROM THE IRAQI PEOPLE OR THE ARAB COMMUNITY... * Terrorists have been killing American/Coalition soldiers on a daily basis since we sent our troops, many of whom gave their lives on Iraqi soil, used US taxpayer dollars to liberate the Iraqi people...NO OUTCRY FROM THE IRAQI PEOPLE OR THE ARAB COMMUNITY... * Four Americans were killed in Fallujah, their bodies were burned, mutilated, dragged through the streets and hung on a bridge...while Iraqi people cheered and stoned the bodies...NO OUTCRY FROM THE IRAQI PEOPLE OR THE ARAB COMMUNITY... AND NOW, A FEW IRAQI PRISONERS HAVE BEEN HUMILITATED (poor babies)...A PAIR OF WOMENS Underwear PUT ON THE PRISONERS HEADS, A FEW NAKED PHOTOGRAPHS...AND THE IRAQI PEOPLE AND THE ENTIRE ARAB COMMUNITY GO Ballistic...GIVE ME A BREAK!!! As said, I don't condone what happened to the prisoners...but until the Iraqi's and the Arab Community gets their act together...I wish the American news elite would stop being part of the problem and stop using this story to the benefit of the Arab community. I DON'T WANT MY PRESIDENT TO APOLOGIZE TO THE ARABS FOR ANYTHING! WE ARE AT WAR! If anyone has access to the President or their Senators and Representatives, you might want to forward this if you agree, if not just Delete, that's what the X at the top of this page is for.

Skyrad 0 #3 May 27, 2004 Obviously you have a lack of knowledge about Iraqi history. The Iraqis rose up against Sadam Hussian after the first Gulf war having been urged to do so by the US who then stood back and let Sadam kill them in droves. Iran and Iraq were at in which a million were killed. He was dispised by many. As for the Iraqis taking shots at the coalition forces, come to mt country and occupy it and let me see the scandals that have been perpertrated recently and don't be suprised to find part of your head missing either.When an author is too meticulous about his style, you may presume that his mind is frivolous and his content flimsy.

nigel99 151 #5 May 27, 2004 some of his facts are questionable to say the least... Quote Saddam's regime indiscriminately put to death millions of Iraqi citizens on a daily basis, on a daily basis implies that a minimum of 200 million Iraqi's a year were executed - accounting for them not working 7 days a week that is... People tend to keep their mouths shut (Iraqi's) when it results in being killed - it DOES NOT excuse the rest of the Arab world for not crying out - but it does the Iraqi's in my book. As to double standards - 4 US civilians were killed and there was a major outcry from the US - how many Iraqi civilians have been killed (limited to the coalition troops doing the killing - it still is a pretty large number) and there is virtually no outcry from the west so double standards are upheld by all parties...Experienced jumper - someone who has made mistakes more often than I have and lived.

rhino 0 #6 May 27, 2004 Yeah.. I know.. Not completely accurate but the double standard cannot be questioned.. And I know the problem isn't ALL Iraqi people and ALL of the Arab world.. Obviously the gentleman that started the email was a bit miffed about something.. BOOBIES!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
