Iraqis drag Americans' bodies through streets

Well, I don't celebrate these killings, but the comments of some US government officials are just ridiculous.

These guys "were trying to make a difference and to help others"? Yeah, they sure were trying to help Bush and Cheney's ambitions. How noble, huh? The difference they're helping to bring about is the control of oilfields by a foreign power without any real say from the Iraqis themselves.

And "these are horrific attacks by people who are trying to prevent democracy from moving forward, but democracy is taking root". Oh yeah? How? With that pupet regime installed by the Americans? If the Iraqis give some hint that they may elect a goverment that is not friendly to the Americans, oh no no! That's no good for you Iraqi guys! We Americans know better than you do what is good for you! That's how democratic we are!
