Your ignorance of Muslim society just reeks from this post. You compare your own liberal and secular upbringing to that of my country where kids are brainwashed from age 5 into believing ideologically and existentially in very dangerous ideals and imperatives.
Your racism and quite evident from this post. Comparing your culture with Muslims and implying that Muslims have to subscribe to your culture. Well they do not, and we have a culture different from yours that you do not understand. So when Muslims cry for freedom, we expect you westerners to respect us, and not put us down with nonsense that Koran is just another religious text.
Your ingorance of ME society, Arab culture, and Muslim culture is pathetic.
Iraq was not a sovereign country under Saddam.
It was the duty of the civilized world to invade Iraq and bring its people human rights and freedoms.
Racists, bigots, and bleeding heart moonbats dont seem to understand this, and feel that democracy is too good for Muslims and middle easterners.
Well too bad, Muslims are also human and they deserve freedom just like you.
"Side effect" or direct effect, does not matter. What matters are the results. Iraqis benefitted. Now whatever the intentions was, is besides the point and you will never know.
IF Kim Il Sung is more brutal than Saddam, how does that imply that 27 million Iraqis should suffer with Saddam? What sort of logic is this? Like saying we should not care about heart disease as long as there is cancer.
Fact is that it was win-win for both the West (not just America, mind you), and Iraq. The losers are the Islamist and the nationalist fascists, and their pseudo-leftist buddies in the west. The losers are the racist bleeding-hearts who think democracy and freedoms are too good for Iraqis and middle easterners.
Just because somebody is caught in the crossfire, though it makes them a victim, does not make them a targetted victim.
Yes, if Iraqi religious and nationalist fascists decide to attack the authorities (i.e. the Americans as per UN Resolution 1546), and you happen to be in the vicinity, then you better not give the criminals and baby bombers protection, and you better get out.
That is how Fallujah was depopulated. The people there were smart enough to leave the city to the fascists and get out of harms way.
Otherwise, there is no evidence that the US is deliberately attacking civilians with bombs or artillary.
I am far from a Bush lover - but when I see 27 million people freed from the most brutal and oppressive dictatorship on earth, as a Muslim, I say thank you America.
Dhimmi tax was for protection FROM the Muslims - not from outsiders. Good but lousy try to rewrite history - what a loser.
Zakat is only a 2.5% tax. Dhimmi tax was way higher - again, you fail miserably in your apology for religious fascism and Islam.
Apostates and blasphemers are met with DEATH in ALL Islamic countries. Now this is something you will find hard to argue against with more apologies.
Mohammad was a pedophile and he f**ked Ayesha, an 8 year old child. Go and be ashamed of your imbecile religion and ideology that truck bombs childrens in the marketplaces of Iraq.
You don't know much about Islam I see.
And I know cause I am a Muslim.
Muslims irrationally believe that the Koran is the TRUE word of god and it should be obeyed unquestionably.
There are many Surahs in the Koran to kill unbelievers, infidels, apostates, and blasphemers. There are Surahs that uphold slavery and sex slavery.
Koran is not same as Bible. Just go and dare to soil the Koran or flush it in a toilet. You will be taken to court in France and in Italy. In the Middle East, they will rip you to pieces.
In the enlightened west, the Bible or Torat is not regarded as the immutable never-corrupted word of god. These books are the butt of jokes. People even pee on the cross in public.
Bush gave 5 reasons to attack Iraq, one was WMD - so dont make up rubbish.
Iraq was not a sovereign state. Therefore, it is quite legitimate for the US and the Coalition of 88 countries to attack it. The Iraqi people simply had no sovereignty under Saddam. Now these same people are free to form their own government and have been awarded their human rights for the first time in their history.
To say that 26 million Iraqis should remain in bondage because no WMDs were found, is so asinine. Only a fascist would even think like this.
Mosques are centers of illegitimate politics. They are NOT the same as churches or temples.
Therefore, the people have the right to tear down mosques because it is mixing religion with politics - which is illegitimate.
What nonsense. As per UN Resolution 1546, US is the legitimate authority in Iraq. Iraq has NO sovereignty. Iraqi people had no sovereignty even at the time of Saddam - it was a dictatorship - what an idiot.
Attacking a US soldier in the streets of Baghdad is like attacking a policeman in London. Now you go figure.

Yeah, I cant figure out why the Arabs get so much out of shape just for the 75 square miles occupied by Israel. Do you?
