I get it! Sorry Eddie.
Better late than never.
I see the Iraqui officials in the same vein as the mexican Military and police, most of whom either bribed by, or intimidated by the cartels.
Sure they have beaming smiles, but they are all self serving sharks, looking for a piece of the free American money pie.
At least the drug lords always kill the enemy, the middlle easterners try to milk money from them while killing them.
I have feelings in this statement, but I see nothing validating about Iraq, the people who let it get the way it is, or the government who perpetuated it, and used us, at the cost of credibility and lives.
We shoulda left them with Saddam.
They deserve him and his sons, IMHO
