I can't help but see that this video has only got 1000 views in 2 years.
I think These videos are controlled and made less available than others by people who don't want the general public to hear what videos like these have to say.
Two years ago this video would have infuriated people and gotten more attention than it has.He talks about death squads and such things that were practically unmentioned two years ago.
Talabani thanked the United States for helping create a democratic Iraq "which will serve as a model for other peoples of the eastern world." He explicitly praised U.S. President George W. Bush for the "courageous and historic" decision to topple dictator Saddam.
Democratic Iraq?? Role model?? So much for our insidious occupation eh...
The US is really not about bringing democracy and freedom to Iraq or anywhere else, if the truth be told. Books like Blum's Killing Hope spell out in detail how the US has consistently subverted democracy in country after country. In particular, the US paid Saddam Hussein to assassinate a beloved president of Iraq and eventually installed him as president, directed him to attack Iran, supplied him with poison gas which he used in his war against Iran and for which he was not prosecuted. Yuk!
"don't you want to get cheaper oil? u do not want to to drive ur SUV?"
If it means that Iraqis have to die for the privilege, then no.
"ah by the way bring democracy to the Middle East??"
When did that happen? Democracy is fine so long as people vote the right way and support policies that are in line with US geo-strategic objectives. The second the people vote the wrong way, dictatorship and repression are imposed to restore "stability". Democracy is purely a PR exercise for the US gov.
Joe - this is really a superb video.

The lack of viewers of this important video is not because some bad guys out there don't want the public to know such truth.
It's because there has not been effective promotion and notification around the internet concerning this video. Anyone wanna help with that?
There are bad guys that control the commercial and public media networks that keep such information from reaching the public that way.

And here's another sad statistic:
I am the 767th person to view this and it's been posted here for over a year.
That equates to little over two hits a day. The West's apathy to this sort of news is frightening.
People use Edmund Burke's quote,
"All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing," to justify the start of wars.
What are the same good men doing now?
