re: #318 Obdicut


We didn’t set out to commit genocide against a race.

We stood by as Shia death squads butched thousands of Sunnis…and they were being directed right out of the Office of the Ministry of The Interior in a government we set up from scratch.

So no, we didn’t do it directly. We watched it happen and gave ammunition and political cover to the people doing it. It wasn’t until November 2006 that the administration even admitted what was happening.

We didn’t industrialize a process to do that.

True The death squads were pretty inefficient.

We didn’t rationalize it in a thousand different ways.

You might want to rethink that given the comments on this thread.
