"Only one in five families outside Baghdad has access to functioning sewage facilities. One-third of wastewater and sewage produced in Baghdad is treated, with much of the rest discharged as raw sewage into the Tigris and Euphrates rivers."

Yeah, we really did them a big favor by spreading democracy.

Good old USA, always watching out for the little guys.

Baghdad Spicoli completed the superfecta of shame, visiting Saddam in Iraq as well as Iran, Cuba and the jackass in Venezuela.

Sean Penn never met Saddam; If he did, then he'd have to follow Donald Rumsfeld's footsteps and become the next Republican secretary of Defense. Good thing Penn is not that shameful.

Penn is the Swiss Army Knife of useful idiots.

Shame?

It's unlikely he was given tours of those countries' prisons, filled as they are with political prisoners lucky to still be alive.

This reminds me of the videos of people who used their shoes to bang on Saddam's pictures and statues when the US army arrived in Baghdad.

Fighting a war for peace is like screwing for virginity.

There is countless videos that can show the flipside of the Israel's inhumane treatment of Palestinian people. This video proves nothing. Hell I can go to downtown Baghdad and make the Americans look like barbarians.

I recall my utter disbelief when I read and saw pictures of the looting that had taken place after 'the fall of Baghdad.' Troops and tanks had been stationed around major oil fields, but the archaeological museums were left unprotected, to be destroyed and ransacked. A few soldiers likely could have staved off the majority of these unarmed opportunistic mobs. Shit like this can't be fixed or replaced; you go into another country in the name of its future, but fail to protect its past. Disgusting.

Husayn Ibn Mansur al-Hallaj-known as al-Hallaj-( the wool-carder), he was put to death in Baghdad for having uttered ana 'l haqq (I am the Truth)

My first was video was gamed perfectly for the pimp festival that is the sift, aptly titled Amazing 777 Landings sprinkled with the tag words cool and extreme, I was pushing videos right from the start. Siftbot says it was posted 2 years, 1 month and 3 weeks ago. Which shows just how much fucking time I have been with this website.

Back then the sift was much tougher, you had to get P in the bloodbath that was the P queue, and then graduate to actual sifting. I just made it with 25 (cumulative I think it was barely 10 then) votes and 3 down votes. First upvotes from joedirt, boneyD some nameless people and oligopol.

Then I really kicked up a shit storm by posting the armored advance of tanks up into Baghdad.
