Nomorenarcissism FOBBITs or SNOBBITs?

Nomorenarcissism

Examines the never-ending American colonial occupation of Iraq through stolen former dictator palaces and contractor-built shacks; is transplanting garrison lifestyles overseas morally or tactically sound? For all the $$$$BILLIONS being given to Dick Cheney's KBR/Halliburton corporate welfare buddies a lot of our troops are still living in flimsy TENTS in Afghanistan/Iraq:

"My friends have been thrown on top of me and I have been mortared from 25 metres away when the tent got hit. We had breeze blocks going round our beds. I would roll off the bed and go under it next to the breeze blocks. I soon stopped sleeping on the bed and just lay with the breeze blocks."

How would YOU feel if your neighborhood was wiped out by Islamist bombs and afterwards Islamic peacekeepers moved in and built gold-plated mosques and restaurants in their base camps complete with calls to prayer every few hours?

While you are without electricity, running water etc. they are having feasts and celebrations.

We've become the Red Coats, haven't we?

The whole mentality of having suffered overseas somehow gives one bragging rights and a smug sense of entitlement to force their opinions WITHOUT HAVING TO PRESENT FACTS is extremely dangerous and if allowed will ruin the U.S. military with WHAT WRONG LOOKS LIKE.

Interesting insights, BrianFH01, thanks for sharing and we'll try to factor this in to our thinking.

Certainly the shrewd Shias are milking America for all we're worth as we have created a Shia "factionocracy" in Iraq. Our point is we should have rehired the Sunni-dominated Iraqi Army Soldiers right after the U.S. Army's 3rd ID took Baghdad and not moved into former dictator palaces. Then at least there'd be some balance of power instead of the current civil war. Thanks for writing!

One of the first videos i have watched that shows it how it is.

When i left in 03 the American commanders were making out like they had just conquered Iraq, It gave the troops the idea we kicked their arse, they let us take the ground so they could take our lives.

Its a sad state of affairs indeed. Keep up the good videos.

Video pretty much nails it on the fucking head.

That 711 is on FOB Diamondback. Owned by a guy Named "brian" from Turkey. When the 3rd ACR came in they made him take the 711 sign down.

Oh hell, anyone but the fuckin fobbits over there know this war is beyond mismanaged. 130K+ troops and only 30k+ routinely go outside the wire? What sense does that shit make? Inept zeros running the show. You know how many ammo dumps we see, call in and report and nothing is done about it? Yeah, thats right, the same artillery shells that the camel jockeys are selling to the enemy. Just laying on the ground, nothing being done about it. Bushie fucked us good alright.

Technically, Iraq is now ruled by an "Oligarchy", not a "Dictator".

By definition, an Oligarchy is a small, privileged group that jointly controls EVERYTHING, and everyone else lives under them. Here the oligarchy is made up of contractors, corrupt politicians, and brass-hat generals.

Not that the particulars matter any --- the Iraqis suffer either way.
