"i`ve been waiting 19yrs to say this"
"SADDAM SUCKS" and with the sounds of heavy metal-iraqi style-the "brigde to bagdad" ended tonight.one of the teen`s band finally got to play in public.there is nothing like getting the real story from the teens who live there. they could finally say what they felt-there were s.p. off cameria in the first program-and it was interesting to hear them speak freely about saddam and bush. it was an interesting exchange on how each group felt about the war and it`s after effects. one american apoligized for forgetting them. the one girl showed the first gun they have ever owned..held it up and said this was bush`s freedom..her dad was a broken man because he couldn`t work and his daughter was providing the food....when you go into these homes you realize what has been done. but thru it all there was a ray of hope-one of the america guys was flirting with one of the girls from iraq..he said her hair was very nice..she smiled..

1. I'm sorry I don't think I..........
know the point you are making. It sounds like a great story but I'm missing something. Are you saying that these young people were now able to play their rock music now that Saddam is gone? And they are pleased with bush? OR are they angry with bush? It's probably me but I don't get it. Sorry. Could you explain further? Thanx

2. had to leave for a second
i got the idea that he felt he could play and sing about anything he wants now..no secret police. they were not pleased with what has happened to the countries security. before the war the girls were safe now they cann`t ,in all reality, go no where without a guard. they were happy saddam is gone ,pissed because of what has happened after. they made the point about the guarding of the oil ministry...
they want the us to stop the looting,murders,and rapes.remember this program was filmed a few weeks after the " end of the war" so i can only imagine things for them are alot worse.. they also wanted the to meet each other in person so they could all hug each other..
