This story exemplifies why The Real News is so important. I have seen NO reference to this wall anywhere in the mainstream "news".

what a mess

[HeadNtheClouds]

just make more oil & you can do whatever you want, I don't care. I just need gas that doesn't cost $4.00 a gallon.

BTW my company D Co. 4/64 AR (3rd Infantry Division) had more confirmed kills than any unit in Sadr City. The Iraqi Ministry of the Interior estimated my company (about 100 guys) killed 1,200-2,000 enemy insurgents in 2 months.

I fought in Sadr City last year and was a part of the main effort in laying down the wall along RTE Gold that divides the city into two. That wall crushed a huge percentage of insurgent activity. Operation Gold Rush (the dividing wall) was a huge success. Is the wall population control? Absolutely. Is population control effective? Absolutely.

If the people want "left-wing and politically 'Islamist-democratic'" then let them have it.

It is not the job of the United States to "spread democracy." It leads to unintended consequences and economic distress. War isn't cheap, but neither are social programs.

It was Woodrow Wilson who coined "making the world safe for democract" as the duty of the United States. It was the biggest fascist lie ever told in American politics. The second was the New Deal.

So you're watching RealNews, a testament to the lies and propaganda that mainstream media propagates, and yet you bought the same media's coverage and treatment of Ron Paul?

Teapot, meet kettle.

Hope it is just you! Not that I promote the illegal occupation, and barbaric invasion of Iraq or it's current government, but Sadr promises such oppression which would make Saddam Husein look like a humanitarian.

Your government fucked up the whole region big time. The only hope is a democratic revolution in Iran, and your government's threatening of military action against the IR of Iran, is playing well in those terrorists bloody hands.

We're not as ignorant as you think we are lifeovdeath.

This is the REAL NEWS site.

People here are better informed. Take your lies to CBS or ABC or CNN or Fox, people there are misinformed and you will have better luck there.

Iraq War is a Eugenics orchestrated genocide masquerading as an anti-terrorist operation

The idea that the on-going Iraq War is substantively an anti-terrorist operation which is designed to turn Iraq into a democracy, and bring security to Americans and the world, is propaganda, along with professed statements of "success" in this region. This is the kind of mass-deception that was used while Nazi Germany rounded up Jews..
