Saddam: The Butcher of Baghdad and the Shame of Mesopotamia

Yes the author is deadly smelly shia. Can`t you see the venomous sting (Kazmi) on this katmal`s caboose? No wonder Whabbi`s call them infidels as one Saudi Mullah declared them worse than jews and christians just a week ago. But to bundle all shias in this category is not fair. Saddam`s shia general Gabbar is now general under American puppet government. Once one sunni said to Jinnah that I would not vote for you because you are shia. Jinnah said to him, `then why do not you vote for Ghandi, he is sunni`. Same thing is happening here. Saddam has been condemned for 153 killings. But Bush and Israel is loved in Baghdad now a days even after 700,000 deaths. Both Bush and Blair are not sunnis that is why they are loved over there. The religious politics is fascism whether it is islamic, hindu, shia, christian, jewish, communists etc. religion and politics should never be mixed.

Exactly as I said, he is in plenty of good company.

the deadliest Saturday of the war -- 21 GIs killed in Iraq -- so much for Mr. Bush`s `surge` and Ms. Riceoroni`s `augmentation` -- and so much for pacification of post Saddam-hanging Irak. --

it is time to IMPEACH George Bush to save our precious American kids from the Iraqi meat grinder -- there is no other way -- where is mama Pelosi -- cut the allowance of this murderous juvenile delinquent -- ground him......

Re: # 38
Honestly Zeemax, don`t you think that history, as the name suggests, really should remain in history?

Re: # 20
Very well said!!!
After an exhaustive search I find another example of sanity.
Keep up the good work.

Re: # 54
Countries pursue their national interests, as they perceive them. It was in America`s national interest to support Saddam against Iraq, and it was in their national interest to get rid of him. It has never been about spreading democracy.

Instead of expecting America to do something about their dictators, why don`t Muslims do something about it themselves?

People only get the governments they deserve.

Najeeb,

Now that they have hanged Butcher of Baghdad I, how about Butcher of Baghdad II and III? There is also a butcher in Cairo, Riyadh, Tel Aviv, Damascus, Washington, Islamabad and Kabul (and vice-butchers too). How are is the world going to get rid of them?

In reality -- Bush is the Butcher of Baghdad and Maliki, the Shame of Mesopotamia.

Like Saddam -- the Quisling M Twins-- Maliki and Mushrraf -- will find out sooner than later that -- ``what Kissinger meant when he observed that in this world, while it is often dangerous to be an enemy of the United States, to be a friend is fatal.``

Re: # 36
Dear Vanguard,
I agree, but Musharraf is not the only one in the history of Pakistan who has plundered Baluchistan. The problem is that no one really knows what is going on in that part of the world. Baluchistan is indeed a sad story. It is a land totally plundered by fuedal nawabs, military generals and bureaucracy in civilian clothes.

... #49, yes, both are doing ``jihad``, claiming god is on their side. And both are going at each other`s throats.

Additionally, ummah is happily slaughtering their own in order to embarrass the US. And US seems to be stuck in a quagmire, reliving the painful days of Vietnam. Al-hamdu lillah, these goons will continue to tear each other apart... takbeer

Ironically both sides are waiting for Jesus to appear and take them to ultimate victory. What would happen if he actually shows up ...???

[Urstruly miaN, any thoughts from your enlightened ullema on his whereabouts? It`s high time, you know. Or perhaps zeemax can elaborate ... No??]

Re: # 48
Spot on, sir! This is a contest between two extremely malignant right-wing ideologies both of whom think God is on their side. However, one side has the advantage of 500 years of scientific and technological development. The other side is stuck in the deserts of 7th century Arabia.

jamesmaxwell (#42),

It is a sign of ummah’s overriding moral bankruptcy, punctuated by occasional spells of common sense.

Umman hates neo-cons/west to the point of delusion, where they are willing to make heroes out of mentally sick animals.

Americans are idiots alright. For one thing, they grossly underestimated how far ummah is willing to go killing their own in order to give the US a black eye. And the ummah thinks it is winning in Iraq (#40)!

... and so do the neo-cons. And this is the travesty of delusion on both sides.

Re: # 46
You are asking them to stop killing each other! How naive!

It is much easier, and far more fun, to kill each other and blame everything on the Zionists and George Bush.

Re: # 45

Fine - you are a shia... it doesn`t matter... my point was: trying for intra-muslim reconciliation is the need of the hour... muslims hating other muslims on sectarian basis shoould be considered the biggest problem... but apparently not....
