'Curveball' speaks, and a reputation as disinformation agent remains intact
By John Goetz and Bob Drogin - June 17, 2008

NUREMBERG, Germany -- Rafid Ahmed Alwan hoped for an easier life when he came here from Iraq nine years ago. He also hoped for a reward for his cooperation with German intelligence officers.

"For what I've done, I should be treated like a king," he said outside a cramped, low-rent apartment he shares with his family. ....

I would say that this ************************ person should be happy he still have life to live.. My guess is that if "some" iraqi get their hand on this little toad, it would not be nice to se the end product of that.. Rather bad If I have to say it... I would guess that many from the old regime, have a Little grouchy against "curvball" and the knowledge how to treat him acordnely...

2. Remember that little toad got a lot of us killed
Edited on Tue Jun-17-08 07:36 PM by Warpy
and many more are without arms and legs and getting over head injuries. He has bankrupted our country and allowed Stupid to make enemies of former friends. It will take many, many years before we recover from what Curveball did to our country, if we ever recover from some of it.

I think there is a very good reason he's in Germany right now.

I just hope the Germans bring him to justice eventually.

(your English is fine. All it has to do is work)

3. The way I'm feeling lately, I'm a bit worried my idea of "justice" for this petulant little Punk
Known as "Curveball" would seem a bit barbaric for some.

What a complete, bankrupt piece of filth he is.

I think, that for the most "ordinary" pepole who have tryed to following what have been happening from 2000 and forward would be happy to at least tell this toad some hard word.. He know he have a lot of enemies who would be verry happy to get their hand on him. And he are an fearfull man who belive, with right that if he just get tru to the US then the chanse for him to live out his life in security, and maybe even in prosperity are safe.. Europe are to close to Iraq, and many exil iraqi are living in Germany... Many from the old regime to...

HE IS an piece of filth, that are something we can agree about:evilgrin:

8. Great post Diclotican!
He is a toad and he should be afraid. He is certainly a piece of major filth.

He should be afraid, and I would bet he is afraid to.. I guess he are not out, or walk in a empty road anymore.. Some could kidnap the toad and do something to him.. My guess that he is home a lot, and locking at TV.. Because it is the one thing he can do, without danger of being attack by some..

And he IS a toad, if any human was an toad, this person should fit the description perfect (even that a toad is not evil as this person was)

True, this little toad have killed many american and have maimed and wounded more than we know today. Ten of thousands of vetrans from this war would be given an rather bad treatment when they are coming home, and the VA medical senters would be swamped with ten of thousands of vetrans with injuries who are dificult to repair in the first case.. And if it goes as after the Vietnam wars, it would be hard for them to get the medical help they would need for many year to come. Maybe for the rest of their life. And as we humans tends to live longer and be old it would cost the US a lot of money just to keep for the maimed and wounded Veterans...

And today US don't have that type of money to help Vetrans with complicated medical needs.. If half the stories about veterans who are been treated as second class citizens is true, you would find thousands of them in the street fighting for their life, as homeless, dirt poor, and often treated with contempt by the rest of the public That happen end after the Vietnam war you know.. How many Veterans,died in the gutter around the big cities in the US between 1975-1989?.. Or was arrested for trespassing, or criminality and would end up in some of the prison complex who was been build in the same time?

I would guess, if he ever was to come to US, as he originally wanted. He was less than pleased when the US government put him in Germany, and that the German immigration government was sending him, and his family not to a big castle, or some posh house. But to an rather less than stellar home... He would be beaten badly up, or in many cases also been frozen out of the community he was chosen to live in... I guess even that guards have to be posted, to get him safe, when he was out of the house and something like that..

He has to this day never committed an criminal act in Germany itself.. So I guess german authority would not do to much to prosecute "curve ball". But if an different Administration in US wanted him send to them, I would be very sure that the german authority would be PLEASED to get him out of the country as fast as the aircraft could possible do it... He is not popular in Germany either.. And for his own safety his whereabout is strictly confidential, so no one with a problem would find him, and treat him bad.. The german authority take their obligation to human rights an so on mutch more to the letter than the currend US Administration would do it seems... They at least have learned "something" after the end of the WW2 I guess..

(Thank you, I do my best, but as my native language are not english, is just to warn you all, when my grammar and spelling ar les than perfect;) )

9. Thanks for your thoughts, Diclotican! You're well-informed about this,
and I enjoy reading your posts. I've learned things about Curveball that I did not know, reading your messages.

Your English is fine, too. MUCH better than my Norwegian :)

Just trying to do MY duty, to stand in some knowledge of what happened in the world... This Curball should be arrested, and if find guilty be send to a prison if it was up to my views.. Maybe an iraqi prison cell would be that proper end for this criminal donky...

I hope I am better in English, than you are in Norwegian;):.
