Did the invasion make things worse in Iraq?
A reporter who has watched the country unravel compares its hellish present to the nightmare it lived under Saddam.
By Nir Rosen [2006-07-05]

  • Are you joking..?

    Did a foreign country invading a nation make things BETTER..? What are you on..? Leave us not forget, gentle reader, that the US and Britain saw fit to impose "no-fly zones" independent of international law... basically they kept Iraq on the back burner, and 9/11/01 gave them the green light they wanted to proceed with an invasion.

    Remember back in the early 70s when Hussein nationalized Iraq's oil..? And the US and British oil companies didn't get eight-cent-a-barrel oil any longer..? Wow, were they ever pissed off... look at Iraq's history since then with that fact in mind.
