I read an article in the local paper last night that said the US Army
command in Iraq is headquartered in one of Saddams marble and gold leafed palaces. Living amongst the splendor and opulance of the ruling class. So, it started me to wondering, just what is the difference between the Saddam regime, and the US regime? Both allow their commanding ranks to live in luxurious palaces. Both use weapons of greatly superior power against poorly armed and poorly trained insurgent forces Both put down civilian rebellion mercilessly and brutally Both show little regard for civilian casualties including killing women and children Both use nepotism and corruption in spreading around the wealth taken from the nations populace and redistributed to friends and family of the ruling elite. Both use propaganda and outright lies in diseminating information about the war or the state of the nations affairs. Both restrict individual liberties of the people of the nation in regards to freedom of speech, freedom of assembly, and the right to keep and bear arms. Did I miss anything? |

I think the difference is that if you were an Iraqi living under Saddam, and
you posted this, you'd be tortured to death...right after watching 50 guys gang-rape your wife, sister, and daughter. "basskisser" wrote in message om...
