The reason why 25% of the Iraqi Parliament is women is because of Saddam's work. Now I dont endorse Saddam but its sad how these conservatives need to lie to gain support...
good points but not good enough for the title "the REAL Story." It's true nobody wants to see the good acts, I hate Glenn Beck but this is alright but it should be retitled to "some postive stuff for Iraq." This might be stupid propaganda but it's just a small bit of truth (even if I hate the guy)
Beck is a liar and a fucking idiot. End of story The children of Iraq hate American soldiers that killed their families and ripped their arms from their bodies with bombs from "collateral damage."
@MrJohn2010 The was only "genocide" in the far north and even that is disputed as to the extent of the "genocide."
And if your argument is that America should go and invade every country that has actual genocide in much larger numbers, than we have dictators to topple in multiple Asian and African nations (or we should have gone in years ago, but Bush didn't, wonder why....).
@jensen1901 Is that not what Bush did? Our military has been greatly decreased, and having our forces in two countries over extended us. (which is sad) Yes we do need to topple genocidal socialist maniacs like Saddam. Africa needs liberation from these warlords, Asia is stillhaunted by the Specter of Communism, and South america is run by drug lords that we fund! America is the last best hope for liberty.
how bout the 400,000 children who died from diarrhea-ridden illnesses from US radiation. Schools rebuilt? You destroyed???? Cell phones WTF????????? How about the grafitti I've seen there? "FUCK Iraq and every Iraqi in there",etc,etc. It' be great to show us how many of them you killed because I got my sources...Glenn your a Militarist, fascist prick.
Using your absolute, anti-epistemological argument, nothing can be proven and nothing can be considered true.
I ask for your sincere beliefs: Do you REALLY think that this war is justified? Do you REALLY think that the occupation in Afghanistan is justified?
If so, ask yourself about Vietnam, El Salvador, Chile, Nicaragua, Panama, Somalia, the Philippines, and all of the other countries we've invaded for lucrative corporate profiteering.
I believe all our wars starting with WWII were "good wars". I'm not sure about what'll happen now, but for now, that is the case. Somalia... that's an interesting and tough one, but it wasn't a "war", it wasn't even a "police action". And all the others you mention, interesting, they seem to come from the Cold War... hmm... do you remember what happened after the last chopper left Saigon?
SIDE NOTE: Granted, we have made mistakes, but they were mistakes of management, not intent or goal.
Ok thats complete bullshit and out right lies. Bush disbanded the real iraqi military that was going to help fix their country and get it back on its feet, who the fuck do you think we are fighting? i think it's about time ppl knock of their bullshit drama, and lets stop america from destroying the world, yaeh? or do we just not even give a flying fuck ne more?
Yeah we vaccinated 98% of the country and built 4500 schools. America's really destroying the world, Maybe if you weren't retarded you'd probably know that sadaam actually tortured and killed hundreds of thousands of his own people. Which doesn't include the chemical warfare that he used on other nations. Keep your stupid opinions to yourself...
"18000 border agents who are protecting Iraq's border with Syria." Wow! That's great! Except Iraq has a border with Turkey, Iran, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Jordan. But it's important that "border agents" are protecting the border with Syria. Why? Because Syria is not under influence of USA.
who thought that iraq will be the richest country in oil and who thought that iraq is building very large things like airports and ports and even large cities.
how thought that iraq now building a new tokyo in a cit called erbil and a new singapore in a city called najaf and a new dubai in basrah
GO GLENN BECK! THANK YOU FINALLY SOMEONE TELLING THE REAL STORY. I JUST CAME BACK FROM a 14 month deployment from BAGHDAD. I'm willing to go back anyday.
You just can't stand Glenn Beck because he provides an alternate viewpoint than you. He is the only voice of common sense in the media. He reports it like he sees it; no bs.
Thats the problem, he reports it like HE sees it. Thats not journalism, thats spin. He's a pundant trying to sell you a corporate agenda based dichotomy, splitting people into left and right so that we're to busy dealing with each other to stop the retards in power right now.
Glenn Beck never claims to be a journalist. He says that he is a normal guy that gives his take on the news, and that take is from a conservative and common sensical viewpoint. And if the United States winning a war while ousting a corrupt dictator, freeing a nation and stopping genocide is a corporate agenda, then God bless that agenda and the corporations behind it. There is nothing wrong with that agenda, in fact it is the best agenda that one could have.

Fuck this controlled media BULLSHIT!! I watch you on the news all the time you lying sac of shit!! You work for BUSH, that just makes you the antichrists HELPER!! Your lies are remembered!! Thank GOd for Keith Oberman, he knows your full of shit too!!
the SURGE IS WORKING 75% of sniper attacks have went down and controlled media i hope you are talking about CNN fuck fox is the leased bayased 60 40% is republican bayased and cnn 80 20 percent liberal over 40000 new businesses 25% of the parliament is women in a middle eastern country that is progress you can not tell me that the iraqis thought it was better with a dictator
One; the US was at least right going into Iraq to oust Sadaam. Sadaam was a dictator that imprisoned, raped, killed, and tortured over 1 million on his people. He also committed genocide by gassing the Kurds in northern Iraq. If anyone says that going into Iraq was wrong, then they need to ask them selves this: what if we hadn't gone into Iraq? Sadaam was in the same class as Hitler and Pol Pot. Darfur? What was happening in Iraq under sadaam was like what is happening in darfur today.
Glenn, It's only about money, oil, power and control. Please dont promote the world prison they have planned for us. These bastards have incentive to keep this bloody war money machine dragging on. Money, oil, power and control. Watch End Game. You have within your influence, power to help us take our country back. Just do the right thing, freedom is worth the price.
That is what it was to Sadaam, not the US. We went into Iraq along with many countries in the UN to oust the oppressive dicator Sadaam who was on par with Hitler and Pol Pot. What Glenn did here was report on what the media won't tell you; the positive side rather than the "2 marines die in roadisde bomb" story that I hear constantly. Besides, if we were taking money and oil, the UN (a very anti-american organization), would pounce on us and call us imperialistic.

How much of these benefits came about through simply ending the UN sanctions against Iraq ?
Real story: US put Saddam in power and then kicked him out of power, with extensive loss of civilian and military life along the way. And all that to get a cell phone ?
This war is absolutly justified. Would you want the genocide in Darfur to stop!? Would you want the killing of the Karim people in Burma to stop!? Would you want the gassing of the Kurds to stop!? The gassing of the Kurds has been stopped by the US ousting Sadaam Hussein. And if you didn't want the gassing of the Kurdish people to stop but want the Darfur crisis stopped, then you are a hypocrit. (this message is to everyone)
You must be a shill planted by the bastards in power cause nobody is that narrow minded.. Many people have awakened at least a little bit, enough to suspect that "sumthin just aint right" Go ahead, put on your rosy glasses, sit down with a tall glass of 'soak it all up' and watch Main stream media (esp. Fox)I can tell they have formed your opinions of everything.
Actually I don't watch the media. I do my own research by talking with people that have been there. I form my own opinions based on history, common sense, and economics. And how am I narrow minded? Is it because I believe that going into Iraq and removing an oppressive dictator was a good thing? Is it because I wish the same level of freedom and sucess that I enjoy in the US on everyone else? How am I narrow minded?
All the deaths? There would be many, many, more deaths if saddam were left in power. The man used chemical weapons ON HIS OWN PEOPLE. He was no better than Hitler. We should have killed him in the first Gulf War before he had the chance to do what he did.
yo dick head! Bush has killed at least 400,000. more people than Saddam in Iraq! he should have hung himself, in the name of freedom! not to mention the fact he invaded that country when he had no right to. bush is a hitler.
gringos... simplemente pueden comer esa mierda de propaganda?... cual es el precio de matar gente? un mercado de 5 millones de celulares con capitales norteamericanos?
are you happy happybitchwhore to seeing death arabs. this is waht you like to see wright year it gives you the feeling of greathnes sick mind murder that you are.
i leave you how i found you full of hate and ignorance
I'm a Christian, Engineering student, in Florida, where are you from?
I don't want murder, it violates one of the Ten Commandments. As for this war, I would genuinely like to know why you feel it is murder. And I'm only a happybitchwhore on wednesdays.
Are You from Iraq or Iran? And let me set something straight, I don't enjoy the thought of your homeland burning, NO American wants that. This war is highly controversial in America and the MAJORITY of Americans want it to be over with. I'm going to message you with my email, I would appreciate it if you did the same.
America is not a dictatorship either. No one tells me what to do, not the Government, not Hollywood not even my parents. If any president were to every try institute a dictatorial rule I would be the first in a long line to forcefully remove his presidency.
So your saying that america is a dictatorship in countries like Iraq, afganistan and palastine? but not to its own people?
And yes I am a white boy. And my democratic govt doesn't terrorize its people like in prewar iraq. Trust me our foreign policy recently is not popular with americans and I promise you this years election will reflect that.
What Glenn Beck is showing you is what the media doesn't; the success of Iraq. What the media does show you is the deaths, the car bombs, the sucides, and the depression. "It bleeds, it leads" The media did the same in Vietnam. What it does is depress the people and make them feel like nothing good is coming out. People died for the US to be free. Peole have died for the Iraqis to be free. That is the cost of freedom because some people don't want others to have it.
Defeatocrats want to prove that statement right! My dad fought in Vietnam and he told me so many things. But what stuck in my head as I grew older was this! We did not loose the war in Vietnam on the battefield, we lost in the halls of congress and senate chambers and by the good people on the streets of America. The protest helped make the VC fight harder because the more they killed of our soldiers the angrier the ppl here became and we would run even faster!!!!
It's hard to beleive that so many Americans do not get this "THEY WANT TO KILL US" Bin laden stated in a video that we will never stay and finish the job, that we are cowards, paper tigers like in Vietnam. When the going gets too tough, the Americans will put their tail between their legs and run!
yes, I do beleive we should have sent 3-4thousand soldiers to begin with and taken control immediately. But that is past history and we need to look ahead. John McCain is right, if we leave before we have finished the mission to give them security, they will slaughter each other and then come for US!
We are NOT LOOSERS,as spoken by Senator JOHN McCAIN! we are not going to turn our backs on these poor ppl to be slaughtered by ALQaeda and militias. We did that in Vietnam, remember? Millions slaughtered as we turn tail and ran!
We could win this war if the freakin Defeatocrats would let them. My brother served two and will serve one more tour in Iraq and he believes what he is doing is right. Most of the MSM are feeding us all bullshit!
OK, Iraq will probably always be bad. Unless all the bad people leave, or die, I think it's not a chance. People need to listen to Glenn's T.V. show, and his Talk Radio Show. You all need to know the truth. Probably everything in Iraq is bad.
Like it or not, it is still the other side of the coin. If this were Kosovo, the lefties would be spinning it this way too. Even in your own country, wherever that may be, some one could come up with purely terrible stuff, or great news of inspiration. All depends on where your focus is.
circusninja, how many Americans died in Kosovo? I'll give you a hint. It's in between positive one and negative one. I don't think too many people would be against the Iraq War if the casualties were equal.
Those who go there will come back in body bags because it's very simple they don't want you there, take a hint. How many of you motherfuckers will have to die before you learn that!!!
Why is this video being rated down? Everything in it is true. Do people just not like hearing good news out of Iraq? Are they so obsessed with looking for a quagmire that they just arrogantly push aside the proof of major progress in Iraq?
Oh yes, the establishment of a government based on democratic principles in dictatorial region, that's not progress. The booming businesses, the all-girl schools, the air conditioning where there was none, the threefold increase in cars, the autonomous Iraqi security forces, those aren't progress, right?
Funny you should use the word "booming", there's plenty of businesses being blown up. A threefold increase in cars for a threefold increase in car bombs, and the air conditioning is coming from the holes blown in the walls and ceilings.
Welcome to the real world, Scotty. In the real world, the Middle East is a hotbed for Islamic terrorism. In the real world, you can't replace a dictatorship with a democracy overnight. Of course there is violence in Iraq. No one said that wouldn't happen. But you can't see the forest for the trees.
No, you can't replace a dictatorship with a democracy overnight. Especially when you completely ignore the advice of your generals with decades of military experience, or when you send in far less troops than those same generals reccomended.
Now, I agree with you somewhat there. I think that we should've sent in more troops in the beginning. The success of the recent surge is proving that.
Or when you're foolish enough to think that people who have been fighting each other forever, and have only ever been unified by force would just unite and accept a government being imposed on them.
That's not true. We're not "imposing" anything. According to findings published in the January 2006 issue of the Journal of Democracy, over 3/4 of Iraqis support a democratic political system.
I certainly don't think any Iraqis were ever against democracy, but they want stability which Iraq clearly does NOT have. As for the surge why did it take four years and almost four thousand dead US troops before Bush decided "Maybe this isn't working."?
Mistakes have been made in this war. There's no denying that. Mistakes are made in every war. However, I tend to doubt that Iraq would be stable at this time even if we had sent in more troops early on.
You know this video reminds me of something I read in "The Onion" newspaper. A woman says "My cousin is in the army, and he says that the Iraqis want us there. So I really can't figure out why they shot him."
There sure are a lot of morons claiming that Glenn is wrong about these things. None of whom could disprove ANYTHING he says. And: "He is a total uneducated dolt and a poor broadcaster/communicator. I don't get it." WOW! I guess you don't 'get too much' of any reality while sipping your Kool-Aid. Talk about being retarded!
I wish it were true. What is true is the absurdity of the propoganda Glenn Beck is throwing out. I'm all for looking for the good and not focusing on only the bad but I think any Iraqi watching this clip would feel sick if he thought Americans believed that this is how they are living.
Please stop idiotic propoganda - 20 years from now they will be showing clips like this to illustrate how deluded and stupid the American public was about this war.
And your views are based one what? A one-sided liberal propaganda machine of the media in the U.S., which is being played (duped) by the terrorists. God Bless America - particularly our soldiers - you know, the ones who VOLUNTEER to go back, and God bless Glenn Beck for having the guts to say it like it is, even if it isn't popular.
Glenn Beck is a waste of air time, bad enough Nancy Grace is on instead of news. Paris this, Paris that. And which God Blesses Amerika? Kick all the Bible thumpers out and this country would get back on track. The marines that Volunteer to go back know there are no Jobs at Home from the Illegals taking them.
The God the Blesses America, Wood, is the one the Founding Father's prayed to. This country's back is built on faithe. He is the God that that the majority of American's pray to. And because of our volunteer military, the one's who have fought and died for our freedom, you have the right to NOT listen to Glenn.
Glenn Beck is a closet racist, an idiot, a talentless neonazi, and he treats women as sexual objects...I could go on...Why does CNN support someone like him? Aren't there any standards over there? He is a total uneducated dolt and a poor broadcaster/communicator. I don't get it.
RFL this is as bad as saying we caused global warming... Iraq is building up? My ass... Its a warfair place down there... Civilians dieing from US canadian and UK fire, all the people there want is to leave them alone, they have been fine with no real complaints till america came in god...
sorry mis-spellings. True cell phones were not as common, but electicitity, water, inland telecommunications & phone lines, movement and transportation were MUCH better before. Many people think saudia arabia culture,lifestyle, women rights and nature is the norm in arab region when in fact it only represents 1 out of 23!
not taking either side but would like to correct some "facts" as I am very familiar with the situation. 1)true freedom is great and priceless. 2)They ALWAYS had free textbook from elem-college.3)Women were always active, acutually they were much more active than now(saudia arabia does NOT reflect the whole arab region.4)hospitals are worst now. 5)boarder patrol was stronger before.
Beck is a MORON...The grownup's say "we wish you never came to Iraq". It's one thing to BS but this guy is a liar war monger. Probably on the board who gave Bush the info supporting invasion. MORON.
Great Video, NONE OF THERE MORONS WANT TO SEE US WIN THIS WAR, they want us to lose this war, thank god we have a president that has balls, unlike 80 percent of americans who are ball less...
500,000,000,000 dollars, 3,000+ american dead and 20,000+ wounded and in need of serious health care and god knows how many Iraqi casualties (because we sure as hell don't) could have have been invested in more constructive local and global initiatives. That this effort has no end in sight makes this the most tragic failure of this era. That we do not step back and see the complete grim situation we created is a grave mistake. If nothing changes where and when will this end?
and if you don't think the the PMC's are shooting everything brown and getting away with it then you are simply naive. start asking the question "why?" sometimes please.
the majority of this country disagrees with the Bush administration's plans but Bush said himself that it doesn't matter. He said that he is above the law. starting to sound like a dictatorship, right? we're involved in a war for "freedom" while we continue to sacrifice our freedoms in the Land of the Free. it's plain as day dude, open your eyes.
we now provide a country with access to tons of American products and services. please don't believe that we are doing this for the good of anyone besides ourselves. the thousands of companies are majority American, including Private Military Companies, contracted to kill illegally.
yea ok we shouldnt put american products in there we should let someone else do it. got any suggestions? nothing, ok yea thats what i thought. no ones going to step up so we have to do it. private military companies such as blackwater are contracted to protect and kill if they have to. they dont go around blowing up bombs in markets. lets not make stupid accusations and assumptions please.
Let's not make assumptions like I don't have any suggestions. I suggest that we remove our troops, give our contracts to Iraqi companies, take the billions a week saved to support Katrina victims, homeless, etc. in our country instead of positioning them for a war with Iran along side contracted killers making 3 times a soldier salary.
private contractors arent killers they are security agents dumbass. the only work they do with military is delivering supplies and protecting diplomats.
No I have never been there. But that is a weak argument. Have you ever seen $1 Billion? Have you been to Africa? Just because I haven't been somewhere doesn't mean I can't know what's going on. I have spoken with people and seen enough evidence to believe that PMC carry out missions that would be illegal for US military and that wealthy American corporations are benefiting most from the fighting in Iraq
And saying you have spoken to people and seen things on the internet is a stong arguement? I have been there and I never saw the PMC's do anything but provide security for the unarmed civilan workers. U.S. and Iraqi.
Well, piercedavid, what good is it saving people from a ruthless dictator just to kill them yourself? No one is debating that Saddam Hussein was an evil, ruthless tyrant, but now Iraqis are still dying and the country is in chaos and on the brink of civil war.
And for all the "wonderful" achievements in the Iraq clusterfuck created by rich boys with no military experience, the lunatic fringe that supprt this war are still too chickenshit (like Bush & Cheney) to actually fight in the wars they support.
yeah they use the cell phones to set off IED's and car bombs and the country has over 30 % unemployment rate or the fact that according to bob woodward's book US forces are attacked an average of every 15 min, sure there is progress,but Iraq isn't the cake walk the adminstration sold it to be before the invasion.
I do not understand on how the Jewish society control the US.(pleas make a difference between America and US cuz Im Jewish Canadian and i really dont like the used of America for the US,Tks)
What is exacly a Gentiles? And do you truly beleive that someone would have the right to kill someone else even if they are the worst person ever created?
The people I was referring to are actually Iraqis that live in extremely rural areas of Iraq. We were the first Americans many of them had seen. However you will have your views and I can respect that. I am just letting you know that my experience was first hand. There is no way to twist what I saw. There is no way for the American government to change it into "propaganda" before it reached my ears. Out of the mouths of babes...
I'm sorry you feel that way, but there are many Iraqis that feel differently. It is funny that you call it an evil occupation because we are not "occupying" Iraq. The new Iraqi governement REQUESTED that we remain in their country. I do agree that war is evil though. It brings out the worst side of mankind.
There will be a climatic war against Islam. Its inevitable. Islams beliefs dictate that the world must SUBMIT to Islam or die. Co-existance with an agenda such as Islam propagates through the Quran is impossible. Islam cannot be reformed and seeks to put this world back to the 7th century barbaric mindset. Islam must die.
Yea, if the US didn't attack, Saddam would still have tried to acquire nuclear weapons to use against us. Yea, if the US just up and left, hundreds of thousands of people in Iraq would be slaughtered for their fight against the tyranny which Islam represents. Islam is a far greater threat than Nazism ever was. Wake up people.
So you are half Iranian? Have you ever been to Iraq? Well, I have. I have talked to MANY Iraqi civilians (mainly women because I am one) and they thanked me. I was so happy to see this video because the bad stuff is always being shown, but never the side I was fortunate enough to see. What is propaganda is the crap that is ALWAYS on. I'm sorry u believe everything u see on the news.
wow it was all worth the war thanks Bush,(these people have no humility they cant admit they have made a mistake for invading Iraq) beside that governor in Anbar province is not serving his country he is serving American occupation as the pictures prove.
Wow sounds like a great place to visit. I think I will take the family there on our summer vacation this year. Thank You George W. Bush for creating Heaven on Earth..And thank you Glenn Beck for pointing this out to us.
this is the most idiot video i ever seen. every day 100 people die in iraq. so i really don`t see how the usa is helping in anyway. they`re actually making it worse
this some sort of parody right... oh dear... apparently its not... Anyone over 35 like me who visited the east block back in the 70s and 80s will find something chillingly familiar about the style of this video... its really uncanny...
Its funny how hamshow sais that Iraq had nothing to do with the terrorists...Well your an obvious idiot. I be you didnt know that the terrorists were TRAINED in Iraq...Iraq wasnt the only Rogue state that harbored terrorists, but it was one of the biggest...
So many defeatist natured folks these days it's disturbing. And so many of them Americans too. Their self-loathing is showing. These numbers are proof that Iraq will be better off. After all, it's a war, remember? Bad things happen in wars, but also good thing can come of it too.
Its amazing that people think this must be a lie just because it goes against what they have been spoon-fed by most of the media. The majority of Iraqis (most of them Shiites) wanted freedom from Saddam and want to run their own country. Right now, yes, they are sick of US troops (you would be too!) but until they can handle the situation themselves (They're getting closer, we've already handed control of some towns to Iraqi Security Forces) we'll have to help...
Way to go Glenn! It's good to know that you haven't given up the effort to spin feces into gold. Why should we be burdened with pesky facts and thinking when you can pre-package our thoughts for us? Keep up the hypocitical work! :-)
Glenn Beck's video reminds me of the Monty Python movie, "Life of Brian" where the guys on the Cross were singing: Always look on the bright side of life!!!
Well you play with the orchestra on the Titanic if you want but I"ll be on the life boats... Better yet I would have never made the trip since I NEVER supported this fiasco the the first place!!!

You just can't stand Glenn Beck because he provides an alternate viewpoint than you. He is the only voice of common sense in the media. He reports it like he sees it; no bs.
Denuba90 3 years ago
Thats the problem, he reports it like HE sees it. Thats not journalism, thats spin. He's a pundant trying to sell you a corporate agenda based dichotomy, splitting people into left and right so that we're to busy dealing with each other to stop the retards in power right now.
Xakryn 3 years ago
Glenn Beck never claims to be a journalist. He says that he is a normal guy that gives his take on the news, and that take is from a conservative and common sensical viewpoint. And if the United States winning a war while ousting a corrupt dictator, freeing a nation and stopping genocide is a corporate agenda, then God bless that agenda and the corporations behind it. There is nothing wrong with that agenda, in fact it is the best agenda that one could have.

One; the US was at least right going into Iraq to oust Sadaam. Sadaam was a dictator that imprisoned, raped, killed, and tortured over 1 million on his people. He also committed genocide by gassing the Kurds in northern Iraq. If anyone says that going into Iraq was wrong, then they need to ask them selves this: what if we hadn't gone into Iraq? Sadaam was in the same class as Hitler and Pol Pot. Darfur? What was happening in Iraq under sadaam was like what is happening in darfur today.
Denuba90 3 years ago 2
Glenn, It's only about money, oil, power and control. Please dont promote the world prison they have planned for us. These bastards have incentive to keep this bloody war money machine dragging on. Money, oil, power and control. Watch End Game. You have within your influence, power to help us take our country back. Just do the right thing, freedom is worth the price.
heynowwassup 4 years ago
That is what it was to Sadaam, not the US. We went into Iraq along with many countries in the UN to oust the oppressive dicator Sadaam who was on par with Hitler and Pol Pot. What Glenn did here was report on what the media won't tell you; the positive side rather than the "2 marines die in roadisde bomb" story that I hear constantly. Besides, if we were taking money and oil, the UN (a very anti-american organization), would pounce on us and call us imperialistic.

This war is absolutly justified. Would you want the genocide in Darfur to stop!? Would you want the killing of the Karim people in Burma to stop!? Would you want the gassing of the Kurds to stop!? The gassing of the Kurds has been stopped by the US ousting Sadaam Hussein. And if you didn't want the gassing of the Kurdish people to stop but want the Darfur crisis stopped, then you are a hypocrit. (this message is to everyone)

Actually I don't watch the media. I do my own research by talking with people that have been there. I form my own opinions based on history, common sense, and economics. And how am I narrow minded?

How am I narrow minded?

All the deaths? There would be many, many, more deaths if saddam were left in power. The man used chemical weapons ON HIS OWN PEOPLE. He was no better than Hitler. We should have killed him in the first Gulf War before he had the chance to do what he did.

What Glenn Beck is showing you is what the media doesn't; the success of Iraq. What the media does show you is the deaths, the car bombs, the sucides, and the depression. "It bleeds, it leads" The media did the same in Vietnam. What it does is depress the people and make them feel like nothing good is coming out. People died for the US to be free. Peole have died for the Iraqis to be free. That is the cost of freedom because some people don't want others to have it.

Defeatocrats want to prove that statement right! My dad fought in Vietnam and he told me so many things. But what stuck in my head as I grew older was this! We did not loose the war in Vietnam on the battefield, we lost in the halls of congress and senate chambers and by the good people on the streets of America. The protest helped make the VC fight harder because the more they killed of our soldiers the angrier the ppl here became and we would run even faster!!!!

It's hard to beleive that so many Americans do not get this "THEY WANT TO KILL US" Bin laden stated in a video that we will never stay and finish the job, that we are cowards, paper tigers like in Vietnam. When the going gets too tough, the Americans will put their tail between their legs and run!

yes, I do beleive we should have sent 3-4thousand soldiers to begin with and taken control immediately. But that is past history and we need to look ahead.

Oh yes, the establishment of a government based on democratic principles in dictatorial region, that's not progress.

R1ghtW1ngC0nsp1racy 4 years ago
Funny you should use the word "booming", there's plenty of businesses being blown up. A threefold increase in cars for a threefold increase in car bombs, and the air conditioning is coming from the holes blown in the walls and ceilings.
Scotty7617 4 years ago
Welcome to the real world, Scotty. In the real world, the Middle East is a hotbed for Islamic terrorism. In the real world, you can't replace a dictatorship with a democracy overnight. Of course there is violence in Iraq. No one said that wouldn't happen. But you can't see the forest for the trees.
R1ghtW1ngC0nsp1racy 4 years ago
No, you can't replace a dictatorship with a democracy overnight. Especially when you completely ignore the advice of your generals with decades of military experience, or when you send in far less troops than those same generals reccomended.
Scotty7617 4 years ago
Now, I agree with you somewhat there. I think that we should've sent in more troops in the beginning. The success of the recent surge is proving that.
R1ghtW1ngC0nsp1racy 4 years ago
Or when you're foolish enough to think that people who have been fighting each other forever, and have only ever been unified by force would just unite and accept a government being imposed on them.
Scotty7617 4 years ago
That's not true. We're not "imposing" anything. According to findings published in the January 2006 issue of the Journal of Democracy, over 3/4 of Iraqis support a democratic political system.
R1ghtW1ngC0nsp1racy 4 years ago
I certainly don't think any Iraqis were ever against democracy, but they want stability which Iraq clearly does NOT have. As for the surge why did it take four years and almost four thousand dead US troops before Bush decided "Maybe this isn't working."?
Scotty7617 4 years ago
Mistakes have been made in this war. There's no denying that. Mistakes are made in every war. However, I tend to doubt that Iraq would be stable at this time even if we had sent in more troops early on.

this some sort of parody right... oh dear... apparently its not... Anyone over 35 like me who visited the east block back in the 70s and 80s will find something chillingly familiar about the style of this video... its really uncanny...

-Apparently Iraq's economy is booming. If things were truly as bad as the mental picture most Americans have how would this be possible?
-Its disturbing that oponents of the war don't want to see good news. I don't like Bush, but the hatred of him has made people irrational.

Its funny how hamshow sais that Iraq had nothing to do with the terrorists...Well your an obvious idiot. I be you didnt know that the terrorists were TRAINED in Iraq...Iraq wasnt the only Rogue state that harbored terrorists, but it was one of the biggest...

So many defeatist natured folks these days it's disturbing. And so many of them Americans too. Their self-loathing is showing. These numbers are proof that Iraq will be better off. After all, it's a war, remember? Bad things happen in wars, but also good thing can come of it too.

Its amazing that people think this must be a lie just because it goes against what they have been spoon-fed by most of the media. The majority of Iraqis (most of them Shiites) wanted freedom from Saddam and want to run their own country. Right now, yes, they are sick of US troops (you would be too!) but until they can handle the situation themselves (They're getting closer, we've already handed control of some towns to Iraqi Security Forces) we'll have to help...

Way to go Glenn! It's good to know that you haven't given up the effort to spin feces into gold. Why should we be burdened with pesky facts and thinking when you can pre-package our thoughts for us? Keep up the hypocitical work! :-)

Glenn Beck's video reminds me of the Monty Python movie, "Life of Brian" where the guys on the Cross were singing: Always look on the bright side of life!!!
