"As a Muslim and an Iraqi, I am duty bound to defend my country and my family. But in this case, the Americans have done us a favour. No one could have got rid of Saddam from inside. So this is for the good."

Worth repeating a few hundred times.

"As a Muslim and an Iraqi, I am duty bound to defend my country and my family. But in this case, the Americans have done us a favour. No one could have got rid of Saddam from inside. So this is for the good."

Ethnic cleansing, Ethnic cleansing.

If we say it loud enough, all will be forgiven'

and maybe we'll have to vote Democrat,?

[liberalnot]

sounds like an after-the-fact cnn report. (/s)

"No one could have got rid of Saddam from inside. So this is for the good."

Individual freedom bump!

[tang-soo]

This story reminds me of these guys ...



Its the best picture I could find, but these are the guards from the Wicked Witch's Castle. If you remember, they seemed ruthless and bent on destroying Dorthy and her friends until Dorthy killed the witch. Then, they were able to show their true feelings and honored the new heros.

Woaaa Wee Oh, OWoaaa Woaa!

[nevergiveup]

Woaaa Wee Oh, OWoaaa Woaa!

Which brings up the ultimate mystery of life. Does anybody really really know for sure what they were really really singing?

That's awesome!

The only thing that amazes me to this day is the fact that no one in either Iraq or N. Korea had the guts to kill the cause(s) of their national misery........these madmen who brought their countries and citizenry to ruin.

When reached for comment, Tim Robbins stated:

"Give this guy a week and he will try silence me also."

[Samwise]

Yesterday he said: "As a Muslim and an Iraqi, I am duty bound to defend my country and my family. But in this case, the Americans have done us a favour. No one could have got rid of Saddam from inside. So this is for the good."

Pinging Hollyweird and France.

Words of wisdom and self-preservation bump!

Don't know about North Korea but the Iraqi's tried to overthrow Saddam several times. It never worked and those who tried paid a horrible price along with their families.

[Gritty]

"As a Muslim and an Iraqi, I am duty bound to defend my country and my family. But in this case, the Americans have done us a favour. No one could have got rid of Saddam from inside. So this is for the good."

Is there anybody here who wouldn't rather have this man as the Minority Leader in either Congress or the Senate instead of the worthless gasbags now there?

[redbaiter]

Perhaps the answer is not to find out what they were singing but to watch the movie in, ah, how shall I say it, a certain state of mind wherein their song makes perfect sense.

"As a Muslim and an Iraqi, I am duty bound to defend my country and my family. But in this case, the Americans have done us a favour. No one could have got rid of Saddam from inside. So this is for the good."

No wonder they are still playing the lootings in the middle eastern press, and whining about the looted museum in the western press. This is the very last thing Arabs, Islamofascist, french, russian, and leftists want to hear.

[nevergiveup]

Been there, done that. It's false reality proved unsuccessful at satisfying my inner yearnings (kinda like being a democrat). I still am in search of the true meaning of life and I am sure that the Wicked Witch's nomenclatur holds the key.
