Iraq for sale

[jeascoob]

-Yes. Government may be going to war over oil, it may not. We citizens do not have enough information.

-Yes. Government is overpaying these companies contracts, and many people are taking advantage and profiting from it.

-Yes. These companies should be providing as much protection for there workers who are risking their lives.

But this movie is making it out like these young men who chose to take these jobs did not understand they would be in a war zone, & that their lives may be at risk...

[steelsalsa]

@jeascoob but it;s not fair when these guys are under equipped and then they get sent off. I could agree to go to war as long as there was a guarantee that I wouldn't be thrown into a war zone with no life saving equipment like an ARMORED car or a full STAFF of people to go out with me.

AMERICA,S HAS BEEN IN TROUBLE SINCE NIXON WAS NOT HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR HIS ACTIONS, THIS HAS BEEN A TEMPLATE FOR FOLLOWING PRESIDENTS. IN THE BACK GROUND ALL THE OLD CONECTED GUYS WHITE HOUSE AS WELL ARE PROFFITNG FROM PRIVATE COMPANYS. THERES MORE MONEY FOR THEM IN PRIVATE SECTOR AND ITS MUCH EASIER TO HIDE IN THE SHADOWS AND COLLECT THERE ILL GOTTIN GAINS. THE MEEK SHALL INHERET NOTHING IS THERE MOTTO.

brikiss77 Fighting for your country is one thing. Fighting and risking your life for a group of industrialist who profit from war is another.

the sad thing is soldiers are expendable assets

[MrMakavellii]

People in other countries call us names and wish for our distruction , but they are ignorant to the truth. The truth is , this is the work of a small group of evil greedy high raking government organization. Dont blame a whole country for something 1 group is doing. The American people dont like it either !

Matter of fact , I don't know why some suicidal American or Arab hasn't blown these scumbags up or shot them. Send a message to anybody that wants to take they're place !!

[MrBornagainzombie]

Totally understand, England has got this hatred forever, when it's down to the animals in power! They are the psycho's, not the average person on the street, the person on the street of any country in the world (including Iraq!!) is basically the same! they want to look after their family etc.

[PeaceIsRad]

Military Industrial Complex.....there ya go!

This is Global elite using military power as pawns... "War is the trade of Kings".

It's been this way forever. I hope people WAKE UP and see that war is nothing but big business.

[brikiss77]

I don't agree with this anymore than anybody here and I think this is totally wrong, but without these private companies wouldn't the administration have to resort to a draft?

[Alicechains]

Are you afraid of a draft? It seems appropriate to me that one should not fear fighting for a nation if they live in it.

[brikiss77]

No I am not afraid of the draft, I am just stating that since the draft has been outlawed. The administration may need to look to another source. I am not afraid of fighting for my country.

[ZodiacSystem]

Thanks for sending the Video.

[EmperorAurelian]

Strange to me that the American taxpayers seem to simply accept this war business left alone those "private" combat guys accting in the name of freedom and democracy (what a joke). The Bush govm has completely undermined the state's monopoly on the use of force, one of the biggest achievements of early modern times since the peace of Westphalia.

[Communist2012]

lmao am i meant to feel sorry for the bitch slut whore mothers of mercenaries? LMAO they got OWNED

[gooseroos2]

[MazzingerZ7]

In this film Robert Greenwald isolated the cause of todays USAs moral disease.

[MazzingerZ7]

America: land of the fee, home of the pay.

[randont]

America its time to awake to our awful situation. Our freedoms are being destroyed.

[kahutuwhare]

one word: hubris

[Communist2012]

their greed for money led to their deaths LOL

CAPITALISM KILLS BITCHES

[urnofun]

Well considering no entire towns have dropped dead I guess we are holding that for what our withdrawal?

[urnofun]

When the government employees are major stock holders in the private contractors we need to butt our noses into that.

[urnofun]

Welcome to American land of the rich get their way and they do it on the backs of the poor. Poor is defined by making less then $100,000.00 a year. I am sorry for the loss of their sons, but they were in a War Zone. Any time you go where weapons are fired you take the chance of dying.

[johnmffd]

100k doesn't make you rich. You are still nothing in this country with that income....trust me :)
