We could begin by at least getting basic services working so that normal life might resume, halting the looting, and getting a police, justice and legal system in place so that normal people would feel we had their interests at heart. "The US is the big ally of Israel, the sworn enemy of all the Arab people. The US chose Iraq to conquer because they have so much oil, and because Saddam was standing up against the Israelis. Now that the US is in Iraq, they will never let a true Iraqi government form, just a quisling at best. The US won't let the Iraqis vote according to their religion, this despite the fact that Bush chose the Republican party partly because of his religion. The US has bombed Iraq for 10 years, and really doesn't care whether civilians are killed or not. All they want is the oil. When the US came into Iraq, they were very careful to make sure that the oil installations were undamaged because that is what they cared about. As far as they are concerned, the Iraqis can live like animals, which is why they didn't care that Iraq's great library was burned to the ground by looters. They killed our sons, brothers and fathers, and now that they are in our country, standing around doing nothing except occasionally killing civilians, it is our golden opportunity to make them taste what they have done to us.
