There was no "MAD" insurgency before U.S. invaded.
There wasn't the level of ethnic hatred that we are seeing today before U.S.invaded.Civil war,hundreds of thousands killed, 1.6 million Iraqis have fled country. Was Iraq better of with Saddam? I don't think serious people are even debating this anymore.

HUMANS NEVER LEARN FROM THEIR ERRORS AND NEVER WILL.
IT'S REALLY A SHAME. THE INNOCENT IRAQI'S ARE CAUGHT IN THE TANGLE OF WAR. WHAT REALLY ANNOYS ME AS AN ITALO AMERICAN, IS THAT OUR ESTEEMED STUPID AND STUBBORN PRESIDENT HAS NOT ADMITTED TO HIS ERRORS IN FORMERLY TRUSTING HIS STAFF WHO ADVISED HIM TO INVADE IRAQ....SADDAM WHO WAS ABOUT A DANGEROUS THREAT AS MY MINIATURE POODLE IS. HE NOR THE FORMER PRESIDENT CLINTON EVER TOOK THE TIME OUT TO PURSUE THE EVIL SON OF SATAN WHO MASTERMINDED THE KILLING OF 3000 INNOCENT AMERICANS. MAY CLINTON AND BUSH BURN IN HELL, IF THERE IS ONE, FOR THEIR SINS OF ARROGANCE AND INFIDELITY AND THE DEATHS OF OUR YOUNG BOYS WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES TO PROTECT US.

lestb35,

Re: "You can blame the US as long as you want but at some point the Iraqis are going to have to step up."

The Iraqis will surely "step up" when the illegal invaders are finally expelled from their country, and they have an opportunity to elect legitimate leaders to replace their current puppet officials.

You can deny U.S. responsibility all you like, but is painfully obvious who is truly responsible for the current disaster and misery in Iraq.

Blaming the Iraqis for the U.S. created debacle there is truly a cowardly and contemptuous position.

Yea, well how long are they going to continue killing each other until someone steps up and leads them out of war. The problem with the Iraqis is there are no strong leaders. You can blame the US as long as you want but at some point the Iraqis are going to have to step up.

mjv2944,

I agree that we should withdraw immediately. We had no business invading in the first place.

I am just sensitive to the current effort to blame the Iraqi people for the U.S. created disaster there.

If this is not what you were stating, and I overreacted to your comment, then I apologize.

Viet Nam was antoher huge U.S. mistake. It appears that we have learned nothing from it.

Our biggest mistake after toppling Sadam is that we treated these people like children. We allowed them to loot museums and many other buildings. Rumsfeld said they were just tasting freedom. If I looted MOMA in New York, would you call that freedom? We did not take them seriously
thinking that we're so smart = well look where that got us.

By golly, it must be time to get our troops out of there, the little ole trouble makers. Let them fight it out amongst themselves. Hey Dubya,you might as well as the Red Crescent wants, LEAVE and don't wait another day. They are not worth one drop of American bllod.

CavalrySct19,

Re: "If they respect each other so much why the He!! are they blowing there neighbors up?"

The destabilizing of the region by U.S. military failures probably has a lot to do with it, along with the U.S. failure to meet its obligation of providing security.

Many of the Iraqis that are being killed are those who have chosen to collaborate with the brutal and illegal U.S. invasion.

U.S. backed death-squads have undoubtedly played a part, and black-OPS terrorists like the British SAS troops who were caught with wigs, Arab clothing, and bomb-making materials, have undoubtedly been a factor as well.

Blaming the Iraqis for the U.S. created debacle there is truly a cowardly and contemptuous position.

He said, "The insurgents, they are Iraqis, a lot of them are Iraqis, and they respect the Iraqis. And they respect (the Red Crescent's) identity, which is neutrality."

Do you have a reading comprehension disability?

Re: "The insurgents, they are Iraqis..."

That is the cold, hard, truth of the matter. The iraqis have every right to defend themselves against the brutal and illegal invasion of their country.

Re: "Harassment from U.S. forces is a greater threat to the work of the Iraqi Red Crescent than insurgent attacks, a senior official of the Red Cross-linked humanitarian organization said Friday."

This will not come as a surprise to anyone who has bothered to follow the situation in Iraq.
