The West..

freediver, where have you been for the past 6 years?
Who are they fighting?? 

From what I can tell they fight each other just as often - eg sunni vs shiite. The US has given them democracy. They may not like it, but they just have to vote to get whatever they want. Maybe they are just really stupid and haven't figured out how it works yet. The sooner they stop blowing things up, the sooner the US will leave. We don't actually want to be there, holding their hands.

Or, more likely, the Iraqis support what the US has given them.

The funny thing about this is that it's not just Muslims fighting in Iraq against the occupiers, My friend went to Iraq as a part of the Australian Army and said that in addition to Muslims fighting, that it's also Iraqi Christians and Jews fighting against the occupiers too.

Democracy? That is the biggest load of crap that I've ever heard. The US has given them a shamocracy just like it did with so many of it's puppet regimes in Latin America in history.

Most Iraqi's, in fact more than 80% want the US out, if they had democracy do you think the US would still be there?

In addition to that, the West has been directly implicated in fuelling the civil war in Iraq, with 2 UK SAS soldiers caught at a police road block with Arab clothing on and wigs who then shot the police officer and then were captured by the police.

In addition to that we know that the British fuelled the war in Northern Ireland and provided UDF forces with names and addresses of Irish Catholic's sympathetic to the Irish cause, having them tortured and executed.

The West has always tried dividing and conquering people, they did it in WW1 and haven't stopped since.

It's really quite amusing that you still think they're there for us.

They're there for themselves and themselves only. That's why the price of petrol has skyrocketed since they seized control of the oil fields. And guess what? US oil companies profits have skyrocketed since they went there too, and we, the poor little Aussies are now paying about twice as much for tol fill our tanks. Where do you think our money is going to?

At least Rudd kind of realised Australia has been duped, and has pulled some troops out, Howard would've kept us there for the long haul, just so he could visit the ranch in Texas and get his photo taken next to his hero.

Abu you conspiracist, petrol is far cheaper than a war.

Aussie is insignificant in the world.
