Putting Saddam back in charge


http://news.independent.co.uk/world/middle_east/story.jsp?story=514327

In another policy reversal Saddam's Generals are being put back in charge...

The abrupt reversal of previous policy comes as a senior US general admitted that 10 per cent of the Iraqi security services actually changed sides during recent fighting and another 40 per cent went home.

2. how could we expect loyalty. . .
Edited on Fri Apr-23-04 03:17 PM by stellanoir
from people when we've had no regard whatsoever for their needs or concerns.. .? Remember, many of these people abadoned their weapons and often their uniforms of a dictator under which they served for 28 years. . .in a heartbeat after shock and awe commenced.

Sheesh. . .what did we expect. . .Oh that's right. . .flowers and candy. . . I forgot for a moment.

back to your regular programing.
