Massive Baghdad Protest Over US Troops Agreement

submitted by burdturgler

1 decade 5 years 10 months 2 weeks ago

Shiites rally in Baghdad against a U.S.-Iraqi security pact, burning effigies of President Bush and Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice. Marchers want Iraq's parliament to reject the agreement, which lets troops stay until 2011.

This is just their way of saying ... thank you for coming here and laying down your lives to free us from the tyranny of Saddam. We can take it from here. Go in peace, American friends.

Despite the protest, the agreement was signed:

Damn it.

I'd be interested to see if President Obama, come January 20th, 2009, chooses to abide by all these last minuet agreements and documents rammed down our collective throats by the outgoing Bush Administration, I foresee another such meeting being held after the transition is complete, with an altered outcome.

being burned in effigy must be the greatest feeling in the world... providing motive for efforts to that end.

Yes, god forbid the U.S. leaves.

After all, the region is the very picture of stability, right?

According to western media, this nothing more than a simple disagreement. Yeah. Really.
