I urge you to view this honest and eye-opening documentary by channel four, Iraq: The Hidden Story.

Iraq: The Hidden Story **Warning: Graphic imagery**


The US is not "occupying" Baghdad, they are holding a mere 4 square mile patch of walled-in land: the Green Zone, like a caterpillar in a glass jar placed inside a fire-ant nest. Outside that it's a land under siege where only armoured convoys dare traverse.

Foreign journalists are now totally unable to travel outside the green zone, and even local journalists face daily death threats, attacks, and kidnapping. Ordinary Iraqis armed with assault rifles patrol at night to protect their own streets and neighbourhoods.










A recent national survey in Iraq concluded:
    • 94% express disapproval of al-Qaeda.
    • 61% of Shiites and Sunnis now support attacks on US forces.
    • 74% of Shiites, 91% of Sunnis, and 80% of Shiites want the US out within a year, with the majority believing that day-to-day security would improve if coalition forces were not in Iraq.


The occupation of Iraq will only continue see an increase in bloodshed for both coalition forces, and Iraqis. You cannot rebuild a nation with bullets and tanks, and you cannot rebuild a nation when an ever-increasing share of the population simply doesn't want you there. There will be no "seeing it through" in Iraq IMHO, there will only be an occupation under increasingly violent siege, and a month-by-month choice for the coalition forces over how long and how much they can stand to bleed.



The documentary also shows what is alleged to be a US helicopter attack on a crowd of innocent Iraqi citizens, and explores the extent to which the violence and hopelessness of the occupation is sanitized in our media.

America isnt this making you sick?
arent you ashamed that he calls himself your leader?

look at IRAQ.

I ask you, where are the weapons?
where is the progress?
how can there be success?
where's the 'winning path to victory''


WHY ARE YOU ALLOWING YOUR GOOD PEOPLE 'soilders' TO BE USED AS PAWNS IN THIS ILLEGIAL WAR?

jesus christ... I am ashamed to be called a human being, simple because this man can smirk, laugh. and enjoy his xmas.. while a entire nation suffers becuase of his sheer greed and stupidity.

Every american should be ashamed to call themselves a citizen under this man.

SHAME ON YOU.
SHAME ON YOUR FOR ENJOYING YOUR CHRISTMAS and LAUGHING AND JOKING WITH YOUR LOVED ONES WHILE THIS MAN REMAINS IN POWER AFTER COMMITING AN ACT WORSE THAN HITLER!

I bet many of you republicans didnt even ponder the thought that you have a family, you have presnets, power, food and happieness in your home this holiday period.

what does the average iraqi have?

how can any human in america be content with using there time to give gifts, instead of using there time to remove this evil man from office.
