U.S. Struggles To Restore Iraq's Water

Struggles? After occupying their country for over four years it is still a "struggle?" After bombarding their country in "shock and awe" and more than likely blowing up any water supplies they had, it is a "struggle?" Sorry, I don't believe for a second that they care about Iraqi people having water or that it is a struggle for anyone there but the people of Iraq to survive. I do however believe those who continue to use Iraq as a cash cow care about the ton of money they will make from building these huge plants that I am sure people will have to pay dearly for after having to deal with them "struggling" to fix what they more than likely destroyed for Bechtel.

What a GD disgrace.

Water is a human right.

7. there is no doubt in my mind they will be

I laugh, oh how I laugh, when I'm told I've lost grasp of reality for thinking that. I believed in America a long time ago and I still very much believe in America today, I'll be going to my grave believing in America too btw.

3. I hear you

There's NEVER any money to fix our infrastructure. Not "lucrative" enough for them.

5. Right

This country can build nothing ... except stadiums and theme parks. What a useless tribe of morons we have become.
