Lara Logan: The Attack In Samarra Is Meant To Push Iraq Into Chaos

Understand this, it is Al Qeuda or Suni's as in the old Bathists, the minority in Baghdad that are causing the unrest, violence and barbarism. All the U.S. did by removinmg Sadaam was give the MAJORITY Iraqis a chance at FREEDOM for the first time in there history. It is EVIL extremists trying to destroy that chance not AMErica or it's forces that are fighting for freedom and stability. Anyone you claims it's Amercicas occupation fomenting the violence are propogandists for the extremists. THe simple reality is if the extremists would stop killing innocent civilians and bombing on a daily basis the soldiers could come home and the majority of Iraqis could live in peace!

Pathetic

Understand this: it is our US invasion and occupation that unleashed all of this. And it is our continual presence that fuels and justifies it in the minds of all the factions.

You mean it will take decades to pay the massive DEBT created by George W. Bush Jr.

"It will take decades to repair the damages and pay the deficits created by George W. Bush Jr."

Guess you don't keep up with current events as it pertains to the deficit.

Only 7% of the oil is under the control of private oil companies, the rest are state owned companies. Aramco has no stake in Iraq, but the private companies have, do or want to.

Saudi Arabia has many concerns. They would like to see stability in their neighbor Iran. If turning over control of the oil to private companies will bring that stability, then that is a bargain that they may be willing to make.

I nominate you to for entry in the world's Hall of Shame right along side Pol Pot, Hitler, Stalin, and Saddam himself for the category of World's Worst Leaders.
You have definately qualified.

Two stories with two headlines regarding the occupation of Iraq:

"Iraq Buildup Troops In Place -- Now What?"
"Iraq's Cycle Of Bloodletting Continues"

The last I heard, we were told to wait until all of the "surge" troops were in place before we saw a marked improvement. Could it be - gasp - that they are somehow wrong?!?
