Groove Fetish Posted March 7, 2003 Report Share Posted March 7, 2003 thanks for the post. That was a nice peice to read, at least some people are willing to wade through the bullshit to the truth and print it. we all need to be more aware of the various propaganda that are used on us and try to read thru them to the truth.

paisley Posted March 8, 2003 Report Share Posted March 8, 2003 quote: Unlike a communist-style dictator, Saddam doesn't give a damn what Iraqis think or do unless it involves a threat to his hold on power. There are two categories of dictators: totalitarians who want to control every aspect of a person's life, and gangsters who just want to stay in power. Saddam is in the gangster category. Iraqi women, for example, are entitled to free education, just the same as men, and are free to choose any vocation they wish. Prior to the Gulf War, Iraq had one of the largest middle classes in the Middle East, one of the best education systems and one of the best health care systems. We, not Saddam, have destroyed all three with the war and economic sanctions. good article, thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevO Posted March 8, 2003 Report Share Posted March 8, 2003 If you're interested, check this out. Its a dossier put together about a week ago by a prof at University of Guelph. Its basically excerpts from articles and journals regarding various aspects of the War on Iraq. Really good resource! Scroll down to the Preface to see what its all about.
