If Iraq was "liberated" a couple of years ago
and now has a sovereign government, can someone please explain to me what right we have to drop bombs there?
It's time for the international community to put a halt to the whole charade.

I'd love to start hearing some condemnation from OTHER citizens of the planet...might give some more Americans the courage to stand up in opposition....

edit: meaning new cries of outrage over today's new atrocity

5. Move up to Canada; sure is loud & clear here.
As it is all over the world. But hey, you didn't really think the US "media" would tell Americans that.

3. Too stop the UnLiberators

Seriously, it's akin to the Phony nations set up by France in the First Indochina War (46-54) and our Vietnam "Conflict"... Iraq is "sovereign" but we can dictate what happens militarily.

Also, the "leaders" of Iraq realize without US Forces continuing to support them, they would be ridden out or shot.

4. 3 going on 4 years ago..."liberated" by being shock & awe genocided
and the sovereign government is a US puppet regime.

America owns Iraq, so that gives America the right to continue to genocide the people of Iraq, (every single one of whom is innocent because WE broke international law, US law, and the USC and INVADED an innocent nation, and the Iraqis fighting US forces are in fact & in law "freedom fighters") because we are GAWD BLESSEED AMERICANS BY GAWD RAH! RAH! RAH!

Same shit the Germans used to chant. :shrug:

6. This bombing just tells me that the U.S. has no idea what's
going on and they're just grabbing at straws because they're out of control.

7. This is merely an exercise. Preparation for the real WMD/nuke country
Syria? no, wait. Palestine? oops. Kuwait? damn, wait, it is on the tip of my tongue. INDIA!. no, that's not it. Iraq? uh uh. Lebanon?
Anyone have a map? Belgium? France? Denmark? Latvia? Tasmania? Sri Lanka? Sierre Leone? Sierra Nevada? El dorado? Rio Bravo? Rio Grande?
Wait, I'll get it.

IRAN - That's the ticket.
They were sovereign once upon a time, too. But with our pre-emption policy, that no longer matters.

This whole administration is a collection of law-breaking, power-hungry, greedy bastards, including Condi and Karen.
