BAGHDAD, Iraq - A suicide bomber driving a truck loaded with explosives hidden beneath cooking oil, canned food and bags of flour obliterated a Baghdad food market on Saturday, killing at least 121 people in one of the most fearsome attacks in the capital since the U.S. invasion in 2003.

Hey, it's better in Iraq this way.

Some thought it better when Sadaam did it as opposed to a suicide bomber

Pretty sure 98% of Iraq's populace felt it was pretty safe to let their kids go play in the streets under Saddam. Now whole familes die because Saddam isn't there to control the ****ing idiots blowing themselves up.

Now, if you notice, I did NOT say it was good in Iraq under Saddam, it was horrible there, absolutely horrible... BUT it didn't get better after the US invasion, for 98% of the people it got much worse.

I disagree, please ask the Kurds if that’s the case, oh no you cant they we gassed. There are many Middle Eastern countries that maintain control with out resorting to murder. Its the Iraqi populace that needs to set up here. While they complain about the violence and blame the US its they who are at fault. THEY support this movement, take a stand. Tell your husband, you brother, your son to stop the violence, stop funneling money take control of you future and let us get the hell out.

You only post the bad things that happen under the occupation what about all the good things that are happening.

Bush administration should of thought about this before going in.

The big bad SH sold his oil to us still.

I don't understand this one. I know Iran and Saudis don't care for one another as there is a Shia-Sunni divide in the Arab world. But keeping SH in there is what was a check between Iran and SA. Now we have a Shia (Iran) crescent in the area.

Whole thing was a dumb move. Whats worse, is a war with Iran is being planned to boot.

Yeah let's keep driving the point home about how stupid the Bush administration was for going in, that'll solve all of our problems.

You know what I meant. He's both no longer in power and dead because of us.

I was never a fan, but as I've said before, Saddam knew how to keep all the mindless zealot turds in his country under control - he ground them under his fucking boot so hard that they were too busy screaming to do anything else; basically daycare for cavemen. When they are allowed to operate unchecked, well, we've seen what they've done, primarily to each other, for years now. Do you think it's any better now? I sure as hell don't.

Saddam did what was necessary to maintain control, and we won't. Yes, his methods sucked. But NOTHING ELSE WILL EVER WORK WITH THESE ANIMALS. It's really that simple.
