Dear Chris,
Get out of Iraq fast because I predicted that there is something real big is going to happen.
I don’t know why people get angry because Usa, they do the usually, manage the world.
Good look from Uruguay
Hi Everybody:
I want to know if there is a site like this but IN SPANISH.
From Buenos Aires, Good luck and take care
Hi man,
I’m Colombian, I don’t war,
I accuse from the massacre to Bush (KILLER) and their mercenaries.
They don’t have pardon for that they make in IRAQ with the town.
That they say of human rights when they don’t respect anything.
Please it continues ahead with your reports and luck
A man more with fury to USA
I think that mass media of USA are doing what Bush want they do: show a part of the war. And woblogs are a good alternative to see “the other side”. I love the expression liberty and now i know that the information is a powerfull arm in this war. I am a journalist and the liberty is essencial for doing a good job and not lye to the public, journalists must say and show the trought, but now it seems to be impossible in the USA.
Si, definitivamente USA es el pas de la libertad y la democracia. La estatua de la libertad sigue siendo el emblema del sueo americano y los “malos” del mundo perecern ante el “american way of life”. Por eso Batman (George W Bush) atacar a los supervillanos del “eje del mal” (concepto algo infantil extraamente bien visto por la opinin pblica americana) y llevar el bien a la tierra.
SIIII. Viva USA !!!!
Espero que los americanos despierten del cuento de hadas en el que viven, y que se atrevan a mirar lo que estn generando en el mundo. Ah, me olvidaba. Por si lo lee sto algn americano y todava no se enter: NADIE EN EL MUNDO LES CREE. NADIE EN EL MUNDO QUIERE VIVIR DE ACUERDO AL AMERICAN WAY OF LIFE, Y TODOS EN EL MUNDO CREEN QUE LA OPINION PUBLICA AMERICANA ES INFANTIL AL APOYAR LA VISION DE BUSH. SE NOTA QUE NUNCA TUVIERON UNA GUERRA EN SU TERRITORIO Y QUE NO TIENEN IDEA DE LO QUE ESA PALABRA SIGNIFICA. GRACIAS CNN POR PERMITIR QUE LOS AMERICANOS SIGAN VIVIENDO EN UNA NUBE DE POPCORN, Y QUE LA GUERRA SIGA SIENDO SOLO UN DESFILE PIROTECNICO EN EL CIELO DE BAGDAD

Hey, I see many desintelligence agents writing here.
I pray for Russia, North Korea and China to join against USA.
Is time to end the cowboy raid.
Now, Bush, I hope they crush you, if the propaganda-dominated citizens of USA doesn’t wake up first…
Where are the forgiven mass destruction weapons bush said iraq have? And why they insist in calling a liberation, when they are invading iraq?
WAKE UP americans, the enemy is on the white house and the big corporations, NOT in Iraq
Magrini:
Jabn, es con “B”, no con “V”. Y la visa se la pueden meter donde ms les guste, pedazo de bruto, exponente del imperio decadente y miserable manejado por un borracho delirante y corrupto y mantenido con la sangre vendida de los latinos que creen estar invitados y slo son esclavos que se ganan la visa post mortem, que le aproveche… aunque el mundo no debe ser tan interesante desde abajo del cesped de Arlington.
Omagrini:
Me parece que comentarios como los de ” Un ciudadano ” son ridiculos y que en la mente de este tipo solo hay complejos y miedos al creerse superior porque tiene una visa ( si es que la tiene), creo que pudo darle a Romina una respuesta con algo mas de fundamento, por otro lado me gusto mucho el comentario de Romina y me encanto su ironia, para terminar el ciudadano deberia ponerse a repasar sus libros de ortografa antes de mandar a estudiar a alguien.

Una guerra “corta”, una guerra sin “bajas” civiles…Si claro, y que hay de las huellas que deja en miles de nios que crecen bajo el ruido de metralletas, bombas, y militares apuntndoles….donde queda el dao irreversible de imagen impactante que cavan hondo en nuestro ser y el de muchos nios….por que pintan algo tan malo y degradante como la LIBERTAD…si EL SUEO SE LES HAR REALIDAD…por favor solo vasta con ver la cantidad de millones que gastan para matar, “torturar” (por las secuelas de sus “juguetitos”), en vez de ayudar a los millones de nios y mujeres que siguen muriendo de hambre…..sigan apretando los botoncitos….sigan degradndose ms cada da…..sigan asiendo sufrir a personas que ni siquiera conocen…sigan matando a sus hermanos…..
HI, greetings from the beautiful island of Barbados. We down here in the caribbean have been keeping an eye on the recent events in Iraq I must say that there is a growing anti-american goverment sentiment over here, especially since lats week when the bush administration threatened the cariibean. The US goverment sent a message to caribbean leaders, telling them that the would see it as being against their interest, if any carribean leaders attended any U.N meeting that would vote against they presence in iraq. It has been said that sanctions were even threatened.
This bully approach only works against them. and it increases anti american feelings all over the caribbean. People who used to dream about going to the US now stupse and dismiss any ideas of doing so because of apparent US bully policy
Have any of you USA bashers ever lived or visited any other place but your stinking little miserable town, probably not. that is why you make comments about the USA. But i bet you would love to live her bunch of ignorants. By the way why don’t you post your real e-mail address. scared to hear the truth. here is mine love to chat and discuss your attitude towards the USA. and by the waqy i was not bored in the USA. I was born in Colombia so i think i know what i am talking about.
INter-regional travel is now the big thing. It just ain’t safe where u are little man. SO if that makes us miserable, and ignorant…We will stay as such, for we strongly belive in freedom, not opression.
i am so fucking outraged at the hatred for the usa here. people are so sick. the enemy is the white house and not hussein? What kind of crack are you smoking? would you prefer Bush to be shot and Hussein to remain in power? what the fuck is wrong with you? War sucks but ANYTHING that happens in that war isn’t as bad as what Hussein DOES TO HIS OWN PEOPLE. No one, no nation ever in the history of the world has killed more Muslims than Saddam Hussein. he is a genocidal shit for brains who needs to be eliminated. the entire world should have decided this together. Sadly many didn’t give a shit for one reason or another. Now, finally, we’re going in and we’re getting rid of Hussein and his weapons and weapons programs. That is a very good thing. That is needed. An end result: Iraq’ll be more stable, oil money will be more useful for more people in Iraq, the regime’ll no longer be a threat to people’s lives.
God damn it, why is that so hard to understand?
Shouldn’t your nick spell ‘denial’?
I wonder, why is it so hard for the USA to understand that the world is not waiting for their so-called ‘way of life’ to be shoved down our throats?
Bush decided to go for revenge, trying to kill Saddam. Where did justice go? Who died and made Bush God??? How long does this have to go on before the American citizens realize, that once you accept your president to be judge, jury and executioner at the same time, you’ll soon be living in the same regime as the Iraqi people?
Civilisation means, not killing someone because you’re angry. Believing in justice, equality, humanity and the law. Not degrading yourself to the same level as people like Saddam.
While the coalition forces invade Iraq, getting killed in the process of removing the regime, US companies are dividing the country to make a shitload of money. Do you really believe that they will ever leave Iraq?
The American citizens seem to be brainwashed to a point where they actually believe the bullshit brought to them by the state censored propaganda network CNN.
You probably didn’t get to see the interview with a Iraqi doctor in a Basra hospital. He told the world that as much as he wanted Saddam to be removed, the thought of US troops invading and occupying his country disgusted him.
Personally, I would like to see both Hoessein and Bush hanging from a bridge.

“Un error no se convierte en verdad
Para que no se digan las mismas memeces que a Romina,comienzo por decirles que siento amistad por el puevblo americano en general.Conozco un poquito su pais y me siento bien teniendo unos cuantos amigos alla.Pero ello no me impide afirmar lo que observo.Veo una invasion de otro pais,Irak,bajo un pretesto falso.A Bush ,y a la camarilla de ultraderecha ,les interesa COLONIZAR esa zona.Lo de Husein es un pretexto .Da la casualidad que fue USA quien le doto de armas para intentar dominar Iran.Hoy es un pueblo empobrecido con el embargo,sin armas-comparando con la maquinaria diabolica usa.Lo que esta haciendo es una MASACRE, y los responsables con Bush a la cabeza debe ser juzgados algun dia como criminales.No os dais cuenta en America del ODIO que hacia vosotros esta generando esta masacre en mas de dos mil millones de personas. Es que no veis las manifestaciones furiosas contra todo lo que huela a norteamericano?.No pensais que a partir de ahora todo el mundo occidental,pero sobre todo vosotros ,sufrireis muchisimos mas actos terroristas?.Creis que los tremendos medios de PROPAGANDA e intoxicacion diaria iran contrarestando este terrible dolor que estais causando,pero estais confundidos.Desde fuera vemos a un presidente-fruto de una confusa eleccion-como un ANALFABETO,desconocedor del mundo real.Sed menos arrogantes.Un mundo mejor es psible ,pero no desde el imperialismo,.No olvideis que todos los imperios han fenecido.Y esta lo hara mas pronto que tarde.Cuanta desgracia y dolor innecesario estais produciendo en el mundo.Que ese Dios en el que creeis os ilumine,pues hasta ahora parece que solo os ha ofuscado. Que ese Dios os salve de los criminales que asesinan a nios indefensos, a mujeres, a personas mayores. Y a tanta y tanta gente que solo queria vivir en paz y hoy esta bajo tierra por culpa de vuestra armas diabolicas. Que Dios os perdone algun dia.
For the people who live in another country and want to talk bad about the US, stay put. The US doesn’t need you to come visit us. For everyone else who wants to bad mouth the USA then move out. I hear a man has chartered a plane that will carry all the war opposers to Iraq. Everyone who talks about oppression needs to open there eyes and see what is going on around the world. We can talk about Iraq, or one of the many other countries where innocent people die everyday because of people like Saddam. FYI - for all the people who say that the US is to blame for 9/11 well I am not going to tell you where you can go, you are just plain sorry. Just remember action speaks louder then words and talk is cheap. Get off your butt and do something.
First of all, way to go “Proud to be an American”. I agree, if you have a problem with the US, stay in your on freakin country and I will stay in mine. But, people here have a right to say what they think and believe, if you speak up in Iraq, your whole family dies. Thats a good way to live, right?
I live a few miles from the American
border near the Peace Arch that was built
to signify peace and an open border between peoples of the same family.
My american friends are split down the
middle ,with those that have read unedited
history ashamed at this mess(but wanting
their soldiers safely home)….and those that
have wrapped themselves in the FLAG and don’t
want to hear about this war’s real agenda and
who will be rich.They have swallowed the
cowboy videogame on CNN and spun by their leaders
to the point that anything is believable.
See my posting on April 7(this site) at the bottom to
see if they are in denai….or is that denial.??
When I show my friends from the South records
of their own government or from the Israeli
government archives showing how the Arms andOil
lobby is engineering these wars….there is a
slight pause…and back to Rumsfield/bush/CNN
jingoism about WMDs/bringing freedom/and the
most hypocritical of all is the drivel about
installing “democracy”. They tell me that
Israel is the model for the region!!Some
model…..run by a childkiller that could
have been an asset in Saddams ugly regime.
Denial????When I tell them that Isreal is
not a democracy they think Im on crack! When
I tell them they couldn’t emigrate or have
full rights in Isreal unless they belong to
the Race they are dumbfounded.When I show them
how Isreal has occupied and spread to other
countries they cant deny it because they
are Israeli documents.When I show them American
records of how Isreal stole their atomic plans
and now illegaly possess WMDs and every kind of
horrible weapon they have little to say.
All of us supported getting Saddam neutralized
with the same international effort that came
together when New York was attacked….but the
dogs of war lobbyists couldn’t wait….using
the victims of 911 for an excuse they decided
to sacrifice young Americans,Iraqui citizens,m
and many unwilling Iraqui men in their hurry.
Two days ago Cheney’s Haliburton was awarded
a “cost plus contract” for work rebuilding the
carnage of Rumsfelds war games…good business?
Some Americans remember Vietnam…when they
thought technology would win over people that didn’t want America or puppet dictators to rule
them.Like Korea ….millions of “unfree” foreigners were slaughtered but when the
freedomlovers count reached 50,000 the public
realized this was real…..1.5 million non-
Americans died.
Sadly,they didnt learn how industry manipulates
the public with fear….finding a boogeyman to fit
the crusade ,while ignoring the other monsters on their payroll(ie,US paid the Taliban payroll
till 1999,when they turned down Cheneys pipeline)
Americans,and their press will ,if they dont
start a Nuclear war first I live a few miles from the American
border near the Peace Arch that was built
to signify peace and an open border between peoples of the same family.
