Don't you think the Iraqs feel the same?

1. When have we EVER deliberately TARGETED Iraqi civilians??

2. Was it not Iraqi that invaded, pillaged, and raped Kuwait first??

3. Do you remember when Saddam used chemical weapons against the Kurds and killed THOUSANDS??

4. Did not Saddam attempt to assassinate George Bush Sr. during a trip to Kuwait in 1993, AFTER the war was supposedly over??

I feel for the Iraqi people elmatador... as do probably most Americans. And I'm positive we have shown them greater compassion, by permitting food for oil, than our grandparents showed to those Germans who suffered under Hitler.

And there are some Iraqis, such as the families of the Republican Guards, who can't suffer enough, imo. They have benefitted at the expense of the rest of the nation.
