Re: Israeli forces kill 12 Palestinians in Gaza raid
You asked why they are being killed today. It is bbecause of a power struggle, hatred and revenge.
But before this, over a 20 year period, the tyrannical sunni regime systematically executed, tortured, displaced, imrisoned, raped, terrorized and repressed the Iraqi people. From the figures I've seen, I'd estimate it at about 100-150 a day on average were killed. (This of course includes the figures of Kurdish and shia massacres). No, the buildings were not destroyed. Especially the palaces and idols created by the sunni regime with money that should have gone to the Iraqi people.
Figures that you have seen? Where did you see the figures at? CIA, NSA, who manufactured those figures. There is no doubt there were executions that took place before, but there is no way you are going to convince a sane individual that it was 100-150 aday. Plus, how do you account for all the infrastructure damage? Have we forgotten that we as in US destroyed the water and sewage system of Baghdad that led to the deaths of millions? Just keep things in perspective...It is a mess created by us and we need to clean it up. Cut and run is not going to be the answer.
