The Prime Minister of our puppet government just accused us of wantonly killing civilians habitually. Not as an "isolated incident."
What the fuck are we doing in Iraq?
And by the way, this guy who just Sister Souljah'd us, he's the NEW Prime Minister. You might recall that a month or so ago we got the OLD Prime Minister kicked out because Condi and George Bush didn't like him. Way to go George and Condi, this is YOUR guy that YOU forced into office, and now one month on the job he's pretty much declared all out war on US troops. Heck of a job you did on that one.
And let me just add, Democrats you suck. Had the Democrats had the balls to embrace withdrawal from Iraq months ago when Murtha first brought it up, we would OWN the issue today. The American public is going to demand that we get out of Iraq soon, just you watch. We could have owned this issue. What the hell happened? (And okay, Nancy Pelosi DID support Murtha, and good for her. But across the board the Dems sucked, House and Senate, on the Iraq issue overall and on withdrawal. And don't even get me started on Joe "Everything is going really great!" Lieberman.)
From the NYT:
Prime Minister Nuri Kamal al-Maliki lashed out at the American military on Thursday, denouncing what he characterized as habitual attacks by troops against Iraqi civilians....
In his comments, Mr. Maliki said violence against civilians had become a "daily phenomenon" by troops in the American-led coalition who "do not respect the Iraqi people."
"They crush them with their vehicles and kill them just on suspicion," he said. "This is completely unacceptable." Attacks on civilians will play a role in future decisions on how long to ask American forces to remain in Iraq, the prime minister added.
