Iraq: Code Pink

(thefullmonte.com) In the months before the war The Bush administration controlled headlines with political and diplomatic pressure, while Saddam Hussein strung along the weapons inspectors with the international media in tow. The American public rarely saw the Iraqi people on television. In an apparent attempt to affect the media, CODEPINK was granted Visas. And from the streets of Baghdad CODE PINK hoped to attract the media's attention to the fate of the Iraqi people. While numerous cameras showed up at CODEPINK's colorful demonstrations, the message did not get home.

Where do you get the idea I'm overweight? Have you seen me? I happen to be 5'11" and weight 135. I'm considered too skinny by my friends, but my love likes me just the way I am, so who cares, it's him I love.

My mother had 5 miscarriages before she had me. She had to stay in bed for the last 5 months of pregnancy to keep from losing me. I'd say that's a rather wanted child, and condoms weren't involved. You really ARE a pig, aren't you?

You've just proven your inability to write a coherent comment, or to actually have any kind of dialog. You resort to name-calling and denigration, probably believing you've actually said something. 4Peace4All never said she was for or against Obama, and he most certainly is not a "god" to anyone. And, as a matter of fact, 4Peace4All does speak in an educated manner, just as I do. When you have something to say commenting on this video, why don't you return then? And try to use educated English.

[pshaggy8]

[4Peace4All]

I'd answer if there were an actual question which made sense. (You asked "what makes a person like you think", my brain is what makes me think.) Reword your "question" to make sense, and I'll attempt to answer it.

[4Peace4All]

I'm quite unlikely to kill myself, and what would that accomplish for you? Oh my, I forgot, you love violence and think it is the answer to everything. You are quite wrong.

[4Peace4All]

The USA govt supported Saddam Hussein for MANY years, supplying him with weapons and money and who-knows what else. Then, when it became better for them to kill him, to convince people like you that he was the evil one (not the USA!) and doing so would open the door to invading Iraq with the backing of so many US citizens who believe things they see on FOX "news", they did so. He was a pawn of the US govt.

Are you able to write without profane invective? Can you express yourself without it, because it is a sign of someone who has nothing else to say. War is most certainly the answer to the end of this planet. If that is what you're wishing for, you're likely to get it within the next 2-50 years.

[4Peace4All]

WHAT are you talking about, "orion"?

[4Peace4All]

No, our soldiers used modern weapons, not ovens. They did, however, put massive numbers of Iraqis in camps within their own country. As far as teaching children to kill, that is what the U.S.A. govt. does when it takes 17- and 18-year olds and hands them a rifle, tells them to shoot first and ask questions later. Not only do people in the Middle East hate the USA, people from all over the world hate us for what we have done that is illegal and immoral, and against all USA and international laws.
