More Concern

Iraq the Model continues his interesting (albeit at times idiosyncratic) look at the war from an Iraqi perspective with Part 3 of 'Just a Concerned Man'. Some favorites:

To start with the Zionist-republican conspiracy really makes me sick, but I guess I have to do it since a lot of people out there keep mentioning it. I mean, were did you get that theory from? And I always though that it was (our thinkers) who invented it.

Now I believe you have to give us the credit here. You went to the moon without telling us... but one thing you can’t deny us; WE invented the conspiracy theory. I mean, really, what do you know about it? Probably heard about it in college, or High school? Give me a break; we give conspiracy theory-fortified milk to our babies once they pass the age of 6 months!
...
Ok, suppose we agree; the USA is trying to dominate the world for good, if she can, through eliminating this threat and as a natural outcome to this war. So? What are you going to do about it? And why is that bad?
...
We had this multi polarity during the cold war. What good it did to most of the world (the third world)? Wars every were, as the 2 giants wrestled trying to gain some foot against each other sweeping all that comes in their way; Korea, Vietnam Indian-Pakistan, Arab-Israeli...dozens of wars in 4 decades. No, thanks I’d rather have one rational power that keeps order in this crazy word. Any suggestions? UN? China? European Union?

Read the whole thing, then call me a cheerleader and/or a political ranter.

you're a cheerleader.... AND a political ranter.

however, I've been reading this series with interest as well, and I think what he's got to say is more than worth reading.

Esp. this part:

"I’m calling all of you to support the just struggle between civilization on one side and terrorism and dictatorship on the other. I will support the war, not the warrior. And once I see that the warrior has turned to his benefits, jeopardizing the outcome of this just war, or when it appears to me that he is following just his dreams and not OUR salvation, I’ll not just stop supporting him, I’ll be the 1st one to draw his arm against him no matter what the result. Keep questioning, keep asking, and keep demanding proofs, but don't hinder who, in few weeks, did what all of you couldn't do, or shall I say didn't want to."

I'm reading that as "as long as the US is doing what's good for all and not just herself, we'll stay with her", which makes PERFECT sense.

Thanks for linking this series...... I wouldn't have found it if it weren't for you.
