[QUOTE]Originally posted by Snay: [QB] [QUOTE]I don't think the Iraqis would react like that in any way. They didn't suffer a terrible six-year war their dictator had started in a mad conquest for territory and power. I think in their eyes the U.S. are just agressors who want to take over their country and its oil reserves. Why should the Iraqis feel glad for a U.S. invasion??[/QUOTE]Well, in this case, the US is the country which gave weapons to Saddam to keep him in power. The US is the country which did nothing when Saddam bombed and massacred his own citizens with the "weapons of mass destruction" our hypocritical conservative leaders now harp on with the bullshit "for the good of the world" that clearly they don't give a shit about. Even when the US went to war with Iraq, we left Saddam in power, gave Saddam the ability to put down the insurrection in the north of the country (despite our promises for support), and were responsible for an embargo which starved hundreds of thousands of Iraqis for a dozen years. Yeah, the Iraqi people have a lot to love the United States for. I think, "in this case", that the Iraqi people view the U.S. as a hipocritical nation which will install a new dictator in Hussein's place if elections aren't likely to favor the west. [/QB][/QUOTE]
