Old Baghdad Blues

September 23, 2004

1:30 PM So I have talked to many generals, colonels, and majors; and they all say the same thing. This HAD to happen. It is still better than the mass murder that Saddam did. I'm going to send pictures of his palaces. All this really ornate sculpture of marble and such is quite a story. After an Iraqi craftsman finished the job; if Saddam didn't like you, he killed you after torture. If he liked you, he chopped off your hands so you couldn't reproduce the work in his palaces. These Iraqis come to work and ask us every day, "Don't these Americans care about us?” They are terrified of the sure death they will receive if the troops pullout. They don't understand about our media twisting things.

ON THAT MATTER!!!
When you see an interview and they hate Americans. The media spends the entire day finding these idiots. Most are criminal businessmen or shopkeepers that for the first time ever, they had to straighten up and fly right.This is an historic time people. We must quit looking for excuses to look the other way (because you know damn well that mass murder and dictators are truly evil).
more later Gaters,
