re: #256 William Barnett-Lewis

Problem remains that 1) we used to support him and 2) that brutality was equaled if not bettered by that of our “allies” in Chile and Argentina. I have a hard time believing the squeals of neo-con’s about the very real brutalities of Hussein’s sons when our governments congratulated those who did far worse things when they threw their rape victims out of helicopters an hour out over the Atlantic or herded people into stadiums for mass executions.

What Saddam and his sons did was quite real and it has been independently collaborated many times since 2003. Whatever hypocrisies some in America have engaged in, the fact remains that those three bastards needed killing.
