Evil USA Built 1,000s of Hospitals, Schools, Etc.

Isn't it amazing that the evil, oil stealing, wedding bombing, child killing Americans built thousands of hospitals, bridges, roads, water treatment plants, schools, and many other infrastructure projects to the tune of hundreds of billions of dollars Iraq and Afghanistan.

We are such tyrants.

Watched 60 Minutes last night and heard Iraqis bemoaning our absence over there, about how much better life was with American military forces in their country. Grown men crying because of the atrocities taking place over there now that we are gone.

They hate us over there.

http://www.nbcnews.com/id/38903955/n.../#.VRC0DfnF_aYand the title is true enough, surely; but this article does catalog some infrastructure reconstruction.

Give us a list of those hospitals and their locations general.

Here is their 2012 health report. I dont see a thing about US built hospitals.

What i do see is they had an intact, state of the art health infrastructure through the 90's and it is in ruins today. Nothing says they didnt have security along with that intact infrastructure either. How's the security situation today? Oh they're crying. Bomb and destabilize. You wanted it, you got it. Save your bull droppings for your little church parties.

Re: Evil USA Built 1,000s of Hospitals, Schools, E

ya, i kind of suspect that that is closer to the truth. i had Iraqi contacts, that seem to have dropped off the planet

i don't mean to imply that there aren't many people trying to do good in the US armed forces, or that you aren't one of them--just that you are necessarily operating under false pretenses. I wouldn't send my kid to a public school, either; but that doesn't mean that there aren't lots of good people doing their best there.

I don't think the number is in the thousands, but I'd like to be wrong on this.

no, not wrong at all

"the exorbitantly high rate (of childhood cancers) could in part be the effect of depleted uranium shells, which were widely used by US forces in the war of 1991"

this is just a war crime, one of many.

I disagree with this. The first Iraq War was actually justified and any results from that war lie in the hands of its leader that started that war in the first place.

War is costly. We didn't intentionally kill women and children or civilians in general. So it cannot be a war crime.
