WikLeaks FTW!

So the purpose of the invasion of Iraq was to free the people of that nation from torture and abuse of human rights by a tyrannical dictator, only to subject them to much more of the same from the new US backed regime. Yes sir, that was some favour, well worth the lives lost on all sides.

It would help you snap out of brainwash if you quit calling any brave people "a real american"

How come no one is prosecuting bush and his henchmen for torture of Iraqi prisoners?

Amnestyinternational is a puppet with no weight or balls but, they like the money they get thru donations, now Julian has a set of titanium balls, fearless like me and other real Americans. He is a legend in his own time. May God bless and help you Mr. Assange. We will be there with you for the last dance.

My guess is that they are allowing violence to happen hoping that it will result in some emergent and stable pecking order among Iraqis. If that happens, controlling their latest banana republic would be much easier and cost effective.

Fat chance.

The reason why someone leaked these documents was because of the human rights abuse and the continual lying of the US Government. I am grateful for Wikileaks!

@colourmegone Reminds you a bit of Orwell's "Animal Farm" doesn't it.
