Look At The Evil We Commit In Iraq
As part of an on-going public service that I try to provide on this site, I have been attempting to catalogue much of the evil that the US has wrought in both Afghanistan and Iraq. In today's segment we have a new listing from Accuracy In Media - Some Good News In Post-War Iraq.
So just how evil have we been? Well just look at what AIM is reporting:
Funding for the rebuilding of Iraq: it was estimated at $80-$100 billion of taxpayers money. So far, we've appropriated a mere $1.7 billion.
Schools: We awarded a contract for $62 million to rebuild Iraq's education system. They are installing new computers, buying new textbooks and new desks for the students. They are also looking at expanding education to girls.
And the list of evils goes on and on. It includes such terrible deeds as modernizing the airports and seaports. We have also put some pretty decent money into the health care system over there.
How can we continue to live with ourselves as we commit such heinous acts?
