  I found this article very interesting. Would you agree that even if the Iraqis were grateful some time ago for their liberation, the lack of trust the coalition forces show in them will change their minds? Quote: The Americans, especially, retreated behind rolls and rolls of razor wire, pointed their revolvers and their rifles at passionate but peaceful crowds, and barked orders in English at people for whom courtesy is one of the essential qualities of life. I don't blame the Americans, they simply don't want more casualties, but... Quote: "They considered every Iraqi as a potential enemy," he complained. Instead, he says, they should have realised realising they had a resourceful and highly-educated people mostly grateful for their liberation, and eager to be left to get on with recovery and reconstruction themselves.
And, he believes, the consequence of this haughty, insulting attitude was an eventual loss of patience with the coalition, the rise of the violence that has now become routine. What do you think about this: Quote: And - above all - they cannot comprehend how the richest and most powerful nations in the world have been in Iraq for 15 months now and still the electricity supply is unreliable.
... Long before the serious violence erupted last year, a man in a crowd warned me, you must make our lives better quickly because in the hot weather we grow angry. Hot weather, hot mood. Does this mean that as they are not allowed to make their lives better for themselves they will now expect the richest and most powerful do everything for them? posted by mymla |
