$: The United States of Death Squads: Now in Iraq
Is the US as bad as all this? Is it worse? Will we ever know the truth - all the truth and nothing but the truth - with the CIA's black budgets that are classified? What about Iran-Contra, with the CIA and their friends turning cocaine smuggling into arms funding? Think that's not going on in Afghanistan, one of the heroin capitals of the world? It's just more off-budget funding for doing things we don't want revealed.
Whether it's all true or just a bit is true, the CIA and the Bush administration aren't doing a very good job of winning friends and pacifying the Middle East, are they? Talk about terror bombings! What about the "collateral damage" of tens of thousands of noncombatants when we bomb and shell and raid civilian neighborhoods? The US is making a lot more enemies by being in Iraq and using similar tactics that made Saddam reviled.
It's time for the US to get out of Iraq and to cleanse our government of all its amoral covert ops orientation and participation.
