28. It would be pretty simplistic to you if I did that, I bet, and even if I

bribed your neighbors and mine with a cut of the cash I know you've got buried in the backyard, with you and your critically injured kids there in the mudpit, I might need some help in case some of you can still walk and get funny ideas about insurgency, you wouldn't give a fuck what street or town these thugs came from, or what color hat they wore.

Iraqis are human beings just like you, with the same feelings, and the same aversion to hearing their kids scream from third degree burns and shrapnel wounds, and although in the west it is considered a far-fetched concept, the same feelings about their country and its resources that you have.

While the borders of Iraq were drawn by the grandfathers of today's western imperialists, the people who live there have a good bit more experience in being a country and civilization than Europe has, and way more than the US, which doesn't seem to be able to get the hang of either.
