Did Saddam pay families $35,000 for their sons and daughters |
|
to become suicide bombers?
George Allen on MTP, keeps using talking point.
BTW, Allen's an ass and Webb, while not as smooth a speaker, is speaking from the heart.
Allen has a little "Bush smirk" on his face that I just want to wipe off.

2. Allen avoids answering questions at every turn. |
|
He's a Slithern.
He just said that they "bush regime" are upholding Amercan values as far as torture.
Torture is not an Amercan value.

9. The article is from the Sydney Morning Herald... |
|
and it says their reporter actually attended the "ceremony" where the checks were handed out, so I think this is a credible story. Certainly more credible than a statement from Donald Rumsfeld.

Where do we get the moral arrogance to condemn this when we fully subsidize Israel terrorizing the Palestinians?

7. Reports are that he paid families 25,000 after the fact.... |
|
There is not proof that I am aware of that he paid them to "become" suicide bombers? There is a slight difference. Sort of like the difference between chicken salad and chicken shit?
