You just can't find something that isn't disgustingly ironic out of this Administration. The US Embassy in Iraq, which was built supposedly to be the nerve center for the effort of pushing "freedom" throughout the Middle East, was built with coerced laborers who were often abused.

2. I'm starting to wonder if they do these things on purpose
if destabilization of the Middle East is there goal, or at least a large step in their ultimate goal. They have done everything they can to create more terrorists in Iraq and now elsewhere. And this embassy to me, strikes me as a palace with which to rub into the faces of the Iraqi people - who often lack even basic necessities - that we are a worthy target. I mean, the Right Wing Media harped on and on about Saddam Hussein's palace and how he had this luxury surrounded by the misery of the average Iraqi, and here we are trying to one up him it would seem.

Are they trying to make more terrorists on purpose in order to keep the Military Machine well oiled and themselves well funded?
