DonekeyofHeaven, I was directly told: "Arabs took everything from us. WE had the culture, Arabs eve ate crocodiles. We had theatres, like Greece." And: "We are Persiens, not arabic". And: "Please tell everybody, that people think, we were rich under the Shah and now poor since the Islamic Revolution. But that is not true."
All those lies....what a shame for USA. But USA came from us, US-citicens were Europeans in the beginning - spirit from our spirit. How could they have done that?

Yeah, the MSM totally did an epic fail on the whole Iraq war. They just repeated all the bullshit the White House put out there instead of questioning and investigating it.

A big five comments on this segment. Juan made some interesting points, and helped define the utterly fluid nature of the fighting in IRAQ. These guys switch allegiance like underwear. Of course there will be Shite crossover between IRAN and IRAQ, everyone jockeys for power. The fact still remains Cenk, that you and the AirHead America folks, Nancy and Harry, and Barack and Hillary want us to LOSE, just to say I told you so. Lame.

Doombunny, your name is funny and says just what you sell, so thanks for the truth in advertising. But I'm not buying your doom today. The truth is we have already "LOST" in Iraq and Afghanistan. What were we trying to win anyway? As soon as we attacked, invaded, and occupied soverign nations who never attacked the USA or even threatened to attack the USA we had lost. The history of both Iraq and Afghanistan have numorous examples of nations losing lide this going back thousands of years.

"The truth is we have already "LOST" in Iraq and Afghanistan."

And the real truth is, that it was not possible to win this conflict from the beginning onwards even. But anyway, those, the most often harrassed by USA are those, who like the West the most - Iran. Arabs are tho most hated people there.
The same in Vietnam. Still, when VietCong fought againt US-troups, they left open a window for friendship and that they "would once sit in Washington together in peace".

Am I hearing this right? We are picking the side thats buddys with Iran trained by people we called terrorists, defenitly not secular, and we are fighting people that have issues with Iraan and Exxon? McCain, I was right. You are a greedy oil man. You are the EXACT same as Bush!

If your show is smart enough to have Juan Cole on for over 20 minutes than you must be smart enough for me to want to subscribe to it. Look forward to it. Thank you. :)
