  • Wow, they do not like democracy? May be they want a dictator like Sadam to rule them? During Sadam such protests would be suppressed and the participants would be jailed or killed. During these unrest only a few were wounded. Probably by stones thrown by other protesters. This is democracy to give people freedom to protest.

  • @freediver57 That is why they are protesting. They are protesting the US puppet government of Iraq. They want democracy, what they dont want is to be a US protectarate and source of revenue.

  • @grimblebrumble17889 Germany is under control of USA. Yet they have democracy at some lower levels. It is the same about Japan and South Korea. Change to democracy takes time and it may go under supervising of other countries. Otherwise people would get a corrupted leaders and no democracy at all, like it is in Russia after collapse of SU as well as in Egypt. Uprising of people in Egypt changed nothing, actually. Sure, it is a good sign that people are active and protesting but to some limit.

  • @MinisterAilingTongue America doesn't own democracy, we don't have the power to give it, democracy is a force of nature. there is no justification for the lives lost or the cost. All we can hope is that a child born in Iraq today faces a brighter future & a better quality of life twenty years from now. That slow & painful process belongs to the Iraqi people, but its the best tribute we can HOPE for those lost. i agree. Lets get out of their way & focus on the future of our "democracy".

  • I don't believe that the bush administrations goal was to bring democracy to Iraq, that propaganda was meant for the american public in the absence of "intelligence" to support that Saddam ever posed a significant threat to the US or its people & to this day has never been linked to 9/11. That said. even a broken clock is right twice a day. the Iraqi people are going to demand a voice in how their country is run & we will support their right to tell us to get bent or expose our own hypocrisy.

  • The war is over but a few US Soldiers didn't leave the country. The People of Iraq want their country back right now. Saddadm is gone but what does the US Soldiers want? Rule the whole country of Iraq for invading Kuwait, I was born and grew up in Kuwait for 12 years and I know what happen to Kuwait when I was just little. Kuwait is now having a protest too. Iraqi people doesn't want to have another big problem to their country.

  • U.S. split Iraq into three parts.

  • WORSE GOVENRMENT IN THE IRAQI HISTORY. TRAITORS THEY'RE NOT EVEN IRAQ'S THEY WORK FOR IRAN.

  • 1:27 there military lookin pretty good now..

  • @Jorgelicious1

    why? cause they wearing some "cool" american call of duty clothes?

    you damn cunts...

    so if they wear a potato sack they would be shit soldiers?

  • fuck america and maliki and iran and saudi arabia

    for free iraq!!!!

  • its just so ironic, what can americans really say? how do you support the will of one people & not another. well done! thats democracy for ya.

  • @nortfishlsweetnr John Kennedy had it right when he said, as the leader of the free world and protector of freedom, we had to do whatever it took to preserve AMERICA. America is one nation, and it's resources, idealism and enlightenment must be preserved at home even if it means suppressing people elsewhere who would otherwise prove dangerous. The other strain of American thought along these lines is isolationism. I myself would prefer more buttressing of the borders to constant war.

  • nice to see life is getting back to normal for Iraqi's.that many innocent people in one place and no jihadist blowing himself up is a sure sign of progress.now if only the american government was smart enough to tap into iraq's oil fields and flood the world market with several million extra barrels a day to lower the price per barrel/gallon.kuwait had the right idea back in the 80s and was doing good work until that prick saddam hussein had to go and fuck it all up.

  • maliki, arnt you tired of stealing the oil money for you and your fucking family...

    iraqi government will always do the same, steal, kill, and runaway.. fucking bitches

  • People need to know what is going on in Iraq

    the other day 6 protesters were killed

    Iraq need to be changed

  • Live Feed News. Enough said, but keep reporting.

  • Americans attacked the already-defeated Saddam for no reason, but kept a dozen other dictators alive .. Yeah sure Iraq is a "democracy", but it is in a WORSE corruption.

  • Stop Iraq and Afghanistan occupations

    

  • @911insidejob81 Iraq war's almost over.

  • i wish the TV pictures of 9/11 were that clear ... ;)

  • humans with needs .. not only protesters

  • just keep in mind these people are mad because the 'government hasn't given them anything' : so basically they want socialism because their essentially lazy.

  • innocent result

  • @llROCKETMANll I never forget.. and remind people constantly. Of course the ones that need reminding have assumed that I was not paying attention and just shut up real quick.

  • Great now my countiry ( the US) is doing the same as gaddafi. I wish we would just mind our business like George Washington said in the first place.

  • lets fuck the pharao all together

  • We Iraqis are protesting against the services and corruption. This is about electricity, clean water, roads....This is not about toppling the government. But unfortunately some protesters and soldiers were not responsible. We elected our representatives and we know who NOT to elect in the next elections. The majority of the government are thieves and that Is very unfortunate. They steal as much money as they can and travel to other countries.

  • @lifeovdeath Electricity?? Dont you know what the green zone is?? The us is building an embassy there that is as big as the vatican. THE PEOPLE WANT THEM GONE!!!!

  • @lifeovdeath I'm just curious what's the security situation like over there. Are there still lots of fighting going on?

  • AMASS THE PEACEFUL MILITIA - Love is the answer. We all know that. EXCELLENT VIDEO Chap!!! Ron Paul 2012. Liberty PAC. Go V for VIRAL Online The Business of We The People!

  • You guys are idiots that is freedom and democracy in its purest form the ability to protest and share there frustrations with the world yeah put these protest back a few years with saddam and see the headline then

  • Obama stop lying and leave Iraq, your time has run out, GET OUT!!!

  • I thought we gave them freedom?

    Just another Bush/Obama lie.

  • As an Assyrian from Iraq; I show my respect and full support to the Iraqi people. I pray and hope that your voices are heard and that your demands are met. You deserve a life free of terror, violence, corruption, and extremists. I feel your pain. May God bless all the Assyrians and Arabs from Iraq and across the world.

  • The Iraqi people deserve their rights; the right for healthcare, education and freedom of speech. Iraq as a country requires a government that will promote genuine democracy and will work for the interests of the Iraq people and promote unity, tolerance and equality. The Al-Maliki Government in my personal opinion has done absolutely NOTHING for Iraq. Iraq requires real leaders! My support goes out to the Iraqis.

  • As an American I pray first for the success of the various people's across the world fighting against corrupt and alienating, greedy governments.

    I further pray that my fellow Americans wake up and realize OUR GOVERNMENT is just as corrupt and dishonest as the Arab Dictators!!!!!!!

    People! Rise and WAKE UP!

  • I can hardly express my deep satisfaction about the situation the us is now in!

    What pathetic spin will they have to cook up to tolerate/support the revolution in tunisia, egypt and libya and on the other hand face/fight the same appetite for freedom in the country they illegally invaded for its oil. The us situation is pathetic, they are not only out of step with events that are unfolding globally no, they and braindead swedish bimbos are still trying to silence the partial cause of events!

  • @ReleaseJulianAssange So far the MSM in the US has said absolutely NOTHING about whats going on in Iraq right now. Look, another puppet dictatorship installed by the united states and their military firing on its own people. The same military trained by the US and using US weapons on innocent civillians. Watch out, coming to a neighborhood near you.

  • @ReleaseJulianAssange Iraq's already a democracy and U.S. troops are currently in the process of getting out so sorry but you won't see a revolution there like you did in Tunisia. An Iraqi guy even commented on your video saying that these protests are only because of the poor services and not to overthrow the government.

  • @mudshovel Iraq a democracy? Why? Because the us is there and invaded a sovereign nation and killed its rightful leader Sadam Hussein? Are you blind? The iraqi gov. is not in the greenzone its the us. They have build 14 permanent military basses in iraq communication, airfields, armaments while at the same time building a us embassy complex in the green zone as big as the vatican. The us has corrupted the political puppet leaders/process and put in place a fake gov. The iraqis want the us out!!

  • @ReleaseJulianAssange You're right the Iraqi government is a puppet but not a US puppet. It's pretty much owned by Muqtada Al Sadr who used to be the leader of Shiite insurgents and is very anti-US. And this guy is actually supported by a lot of Iraqis so I don't think there'll be a revolution where the government is completely tossed out. But we'll see.

  • @ReleaseJulianAssange Saddam was a "rightful leader" of something? Of Iraq, you say? Crazy talk, man. Bitch, you cuh-RAY-zay!

  • @ReleaseJulianAssange

    saddam is not the rightful iraqi leader if he was, then hosni mubarak is the rightful leader of egypt, and gadaffi of libya and ben ali for tunisia

  • @ramzi45 i don't know of others but Sadam and Gaddaffi was rightful leader of there Nation. Hosni Mubarak is puppet of US. Now there will be more worst situation on there nation of sure.

  • Viva Fidel !!!!

  • I actually hope it gets violent in Iraq and they overthrow the government. That would be hillarious.

  • I cant read those signs , but I am reasonably sure they say get the fuck out.

  • foriegn troops should now leave Iraq...let them deal with their own problems now...think they can run their own country now...for better or for worse...at least they do it by their own...

  • looks like a bunch of baboons.

  • I thought Iraq was now a democracy, where freedom of speech and demonstration is allowed.

    ha!

  • Anyone think the western media will report on this?

  • 1:51 Those are Iraqi secuity forces? Will Moammar Obama order them to shoot the protestors?

  • @sunRsaturn

    Those troops are Iraqis, and the reason they look American is because that is where all their equipment comes from. The Iraqi soldiers have already shot and abducted protesters. Regardless, Iraqis should continue to protest against a government that does nothing for them.

  • Iraq is so fragmented and it's changing at a very fast rate. Nice to see the people unite for once and join all the other countries in their protests.

  • Throwing shoes or even showing the bottom of your foot at someone is a HUGE Arab insult; it's like flipping someone off!

  • I think as an American, Iraqi citizens are doing the right thing to a certain extent. There country is very rich in oil and there currency is not even worth 1 u.s. penny, there little or no electricity, and there plumbing is unexceptable! No one should be treated like this. I commend Iraqies for standing up for them selves but only the ones who protest in a peaceful manner. Violence only creates more violence

  • I think as an Iraqi, Iraqi citizens they will never be satisified no matter what you give them or who you put in power

  • Bush's DEMOCRACY!!

    Only at a cost of more than a million dead ........

  • i saw 2 women in that video. their messed up way of thinking is why the rest of the world has failed to jump on and help those people out.

  • The empire has fallen never to rise again

  • murder by murder

    winning the hearts and minds

  • Iraqis burning buildings.

  • American Values + Puppet Governments = Revolution But february made me shiver With every paper I’d deliver. Bad news on the doorstep; I couldn’t take one more step. So bye-bye, miss american pie. Drove my chevy to the levee, But the levee was dry. And them good old boys were drinkin’ whiskey and rye Singin’, "this’ll be the day that I die. "this’ll be the day that I die."
  • Iraq sure is in a mess... US better do something about it!! clear up the mess they made man.

  • @MordehaiAnilevich

    Zionism = murder. Doesn't matter if he's American or Israeli, a zionist is a zionist.

  • @lastplacewin whats a zionist?

  • @lastplacewin lol shut up, you sound like a conspiracy idiot, it's all the zionist fault! it's the zionist, everyone's tired of it.

  • @sutton123454

    everyone being Israel and the U.S? NO. Everyone's tired of your lies and deception.

    You sound like every other brainwashed moron out there defending Zionism.

  • @sutton123454 Yea, Israel is simular, but still quite a different story. Unlike the Arab puppets, Israeli puppets only have half the strings attatched.

  • i am fearing that this Good News like the protest throughout the world is going to be bad after it because of the so called "New World Order" i think they are already starting it and changing the President into one of them so they can control us.

  • The people of Iraq will take their country back, whether the United States and its puppets in the Green Zone like it or not.

  • why are there american soldiers protecting the elite? It's in the video, look close. Those are NOT Iraqi soldiers..... rise up

  • what happened? I thought the American empire brought them dypocricy? HAHAHAH!

  • I wonder if these Protesters are mostly Sunni, Shiite, or a mix of both?

  • Damm shows how in so little time the world can turn into shit anon agree that this is all smelling like 2012 is gonna be a year for the history books written in blood?

  • what the hell is going on in the world today????

  • @kiyombo1004 New World Order

  • @FalconFreek New world chaos is pushing back the tide of the new world order..we can join the efforts against the NWO agendas.

  • @kiyombo1004 like I said 2011 is when it goes sideways...seriously though WTF is going on with the world..

  • Every time a country get in trouble...They yell for help from the good old USA...and turn around and back stab us in the back... I guess the Middle East has alot to learn about the truth yet. Dictors like Saddam tortured his people, stole from his people..Half the countries around the globe has forgiven the middle east for their debts to help them re-build their countries and they don't appreciate nothing. We need to pull out of there and let them " HOLD THEIR OWN "

  • Yummy Yum yum

  • Bush, are you watching this clip? I hope so. What a frutiless, worthless war you created. Eventually, Saddam regime, like many other regimes in the region, would had been toppled without our help.

  • @longhairfan thats a deep comment. Reminds me of the nearly sixty thousand soldiers we lost in vietnam. And for what? In the end, we loaded up and hauled ass out of there. Oh, some ppl. made billions selling their own country equipment to..........you know the story.

    peace/paz/salam/shalom

  • @translationwiz To this day, Vietnam is in no better shape than it was pre-Vietnam War.

  • @longhairfan i keep on thinkin that myself. all those dead ppl... all that wasted money ...

  • Half you people are nuts...apparently you don't know the real truth..Americans have saved your asses and you don't appreciate shit..I guess you had rather live like slaves and having rulers tell you when u can crap or not...I'm sick of the US taking away our money and sending to overseas countries for aid. Yes, I wish we could go back 10 years, and never set foot in the Middle East...And let the dictators continue to starve their people.

  • @tyates56 The elites became corrupted and squandered americas capital of support, by invading Iraq it was an unjust war and now the truth of the consequences must be experienced in return. Abu ghreib and the likes has become internationally unfashionable. its sad the end times are coming like an unstoppable wave, its too late now we are all caught up in the turmoil thats coming. NWC

  • hahahaha look what the u.s created while trying to steal oil ... you cant never gain trust of the world dont matter if it takes 10years.. they will see what they have gained in all those years.. and find out they have been robbed.. with saddam they had jobs.. and live better than they do now.. but after you killed millions of them.. worst than saddam.. you also ruined the lives of the iraqi people.. shame on you america!!!

  • What is fleggen democracy US has installed? They just FU the country.

  • i bet the usa wishes it could go back to the 90's and do it all over again cause they really fucked up and the middle east will have its freedom from them and russia and china will be there to pick up the piece's

  • DOWN WITH THE GREEN ZONE! IRAQ WILL NOT BE FREE WITH IMPERIAL TROOPS ON ITS SOIL!

  • @AndrewMann552 There should be only one green zone....POT CLUBS

  • @AndrewMann552 We can always give it back to a regime that will gas the iraqi people instead, if that makes you more happy. :P

  • @bigjames88 You mean the regime that gassed the Kurds with US-FUNDED WEAPONS? The regime led by the maniac who Donald Rumsfeld shook hands with? The regime who also gassed Iranians with weapons provided by Uncle Sam? Oh, and don't forget that REAGAN removed Saddam from the state sponsors of terror list so he could send him lots of toys. BOOKS people, use them.

  • @AndrewMann552 right on!

  • I hope Iraq and Afghan people rise up against the puppet government, oppressing US and other forces as well.

  • those us troops better not be shooting protesters.

  • AMAZING! I love the people in the Middle East are casting off the shackles of their oppressive leaders. If Egypt can do it, Iraq can too.

  • @stewardo

    The U.S. wont allow the iraqi government to be overthrown. The U.S. has put too much money and time in creating a puppet government for iraq to let it crumble.

  • LONG LIVE THE MARTYR HERO PRESIDENT SADDAM HUSEIN AL-MAJID AL-TIKRITI AL-ARABI AL-AZIZ

  • @TheArabSultan man he's dead. RIP

  • @TheArabSultan You are retarded kill yourself PLEASE

  • "They will greet us as liberators" Remember those words? Now is the time to give the Iraqi people their country back. And bring every last individual US soldier home.

  • @zigzigerblat i am not a professional or anything but looking at these footages, it seems that....well see for urself..

  • @Wolfsbane909 That is what Gaddafi did in the beginning of his revolt... Showed videos of people celebrating him while riots were going down. In Dick Cheney's mind that is what is going on right now!

  • @zigzigerblat

    If the U.S. and their allies leave Iraq, I really hope the Iraqis will be able to keep the turmoil and terrorists at bay.

    The presence of said terrorists was the n°2 pretext of the intervention, with the n°1 being the WMDs.

    I hope the coalition's departure won't mean those pretext to come true.

  • @Briselance All pretexts the Bush administration used to go to war in Iraq have been proven false. Google Iraq, curveball. There was not one terrorist in Iraq as of the invasion. Saddam tortured and arrested all militants as they were a threat to his regime. The terrorists only entered Iraq because the US was there. If the US leaves, terrorists leave, and the same goes for everywhere else.

  • @Briselance america did leave? lol they have 50 thousand troops to observe and train soldiers like they do all around the world. they haven't been in a firefight in a long time unless it's from a soldier who's really a terrorist.

  • @sutton123454

    I didn't say they did leave. I just said that I hope the shit wouldn't hit the fan too hard when U.S. and allies leave Iraq.

  • @zigzigerblat The american soldiers aren't even fighting, they train and oberve iraqi military forces lol whats the harm in that? they do that in many countries who don't complain.

  • @sutton123454 The harm is the money that is pouring down that drain. We spend $30M per hour 24-7 there. There are no jobs, we are all going broke and the US is about to hit its debt ceiling in may and potentially default.

  • @zigzigerblat I agree. In fact bring every US soldier home very every country! We are not a police state. We are not an Empire!

  • @psychokillercrab Exactly. We either retract our tentacles or fade off into history as just one more empire blinded by ambition and pride.

  • @zigzigerblat Yes we ar the modern day Rome and if we are not careful we will be in turmoil next

  • Here we go again:(

  • lol small group my ass.

  • Somebody on an AP video predicted Iraqi would be next. He was right.

  • LAST

  • first
