Your article is bullshit. Do you believe it?

BASRA, Iraq — Physicians have been beaten for treating female patients.

Do you believe that bullshit? Do you think the Iraqi Islamists are beating up Iraqi doctors that treat Iraqi women? It's complete utter bullshit.


Yes, I do. And its not the first time I've heard that one. How badly is your press censored?!!

You need a dose of common sense. This article is one example of why I basically discount EVERYTHING you write, because you have your agenda (which seems to be the US under GB sucks donkey weenie) and will post ANYTHING that supports that agenda, with zero effort to find reality.

Prove that its wrong! Now! WTF are you waiting for?!!

Do you really believe that doctors in Basra that treat women get beaten up?

Yes.

Answer the question!

I did, fool........can't you read?

More lies from Basra and Iraq:

"In March, police watched impassively as their friends in the Mahdi army members beat up scores of university students at a picnic deemed immoral because music was played and couples mingled. Gen Sade identified the officers, but did not punish them for fear of provoking the militia."

"The letter came to this city's main cardiac hospital late last month. It was unsigned and handwritten, but its message was clear: It threatened the hospital's top doctors and warned them to leave their jobs immediately.

No one knows who sent the letter, but the relentless violence here is often baffling. Four of the hospital's top surgeons stopped going to work. So did six senior cardiologists. Some left the country.

It was far from an isolated incident.

The director of another hospital, Dr. Abdula Sahab Eunice, was gunned down May 17 on his way to work, officials at the hospital said."

"But insurgent threats are not the only stress facing doctors in this once stellar system, one of the best in the Middle East. Iraq's lawlessness has reached inside the wards, turning doctor-patient frictions into armed conflicts. And doctors are easy targets for violent gangs that specialize in kidnapping because they move around the city to see patients and often cannot afford large numbers of guards."

*************

"One 60-year-old gynecologist, who was kidnapped last December, said three cars, one of them a police cruiser, pulled her car over. Men banged on her window with guns, forced their way into her car and pushed her head to the floor. They took her and her driver to a house.

The men asked for $1 million, handed her a gun and told her to kill the driver. They said they would cut off her hand and send it, with the driver's body, to her son.

"I said, 'I cannot kill him,' " she said. "I can't even kill a bird. They started to beat me on the face."

"But they complain that joblessness remains high and public services are as dismal as ever.

"We have no electricity for half of the day. The water that comes out of our faucets is unbearable. It is undrinkable," said Haitham, a store clerk who declined to give his last name. "If the government was doing its job, we would have the opportunity to make a better life for ourselves."


**************

""I'm more afraid now than I was before" the fall of Saddam Hussein's dictatorship in 2003, said Sablah Talal, a history lecturer at the University of Basra. She said the fact that religious leaders were taking such a strong role in running the government was less disappointing than the fact that they have failed to bring the results they promised during the election campaign."
