[cien750hp]

b-b-b-but mccain told me its all peaceful now and will be for the next 100 years thanks to our presence there!

[unloud]

Is there a recording of this without the Ron paul stuff at the beginning?.... without it it would be easier to convert people for Dr. Paul.

[smartguy911]

somebody plz get a digg url..

[Chabsfromcanada]

I see thought crimes there.

But wow.... too much common sense in there. Americans will think about what she said for 2.6 seconds and then head out to Wal Mart.

[Paulitical Correctness]

I wish they'd air this on CNN/FOX. (Ha!)

People need to see this.

[DrCap]

It's sad to hear her experience and it's sad for me to say - but the messenger won't be believed.

[Xonox]

Yes, no media would ever cover that unfortunately... perhaps they'd call this woman a nutjob... sad...

BUMP

Iraqi's are all nutjobs... that's why we had to go in there right? :rolleyes:

[Paulitical Correctness]

Is there a recording of this without the Ron paul stuff at the beginning?.... without it it would be easier to convert people for Dr. Paul.

Do a search on youtube for "Dahlia Wasfi", that's her name. She's got several more speeches on there.

Interesting, I like this woman.

[skeryl]

wow

[RSLudlum]

I don't know if i like the RP part in the beginning, maybe it should be at the end. May turn possible viewers away esp. if we're going for occupation supporters, should let the info sink in then have RP piece. Could this also pull some obama support? I think they would be more likely to sit all the way through, then BAM! Ron Paul's statement comes up and they say he made perfect sense.

[smartguy911]

let me see if I get this right we we need to borrow $10 billion dollars from

0:04
China

0:04
and then we give it to my shara was a military dictator

0:08
who overthrew the elected government here we go to war

0:11
we lose all these lives promoting democracy

0:22
mind take a message from today is that my family

0:26
and others who have lived their entire lives in Iraq

0:29
don't know what's going on chaos there's no law

0:33
no order it anarchy so for anyone to be sitting here

0:37
7,000 miles away we can't know what's going on there

0:41
I cannot I don't have time to address all of doctor pillars points but I do

0:45
want to comment on his comment that

0:47
she are the US's thanks for the overthrow saddam

0:50
at let's keep in mind that in 1991

0:53
the american administration who encourage the Shiite to rise up against

0:56
saddam hussein

0:57
we said we will back you up and then they were nowhere to be found

1:01
and 10,000 see our sacred but keep in mind that saddam was put in power

1:06
he was a CIA agent and his killing spree started

1:09
when the CIA with feeding him names have left as intellectuals and Communist

1:14
to eliminate much keep in mind back

1:17
sanctions imposed primarily by the United States and Great Britain

1:20
strengthened his role so the point there is Iraqis have taken

1:24
they've had just about all the help they can take from america I speak to you

1:29
today on behalf of relatives on my mother's side

1:31
Ashkenazi Jews who fled their homeland Austria during hitler's onslaught it is

1:35
for them that we think

1:36
never again I speak to you today on behalf relatives on my father's side

1:41
who are not living a dying under the occupation

1:44
this administration's deadly 48 in Iraq from the lack of security to the lack of

1:49
basic supplies to the lack of electricity to the lack of potable water

1:53
to the lack of jobs to the lack of reconstruction to the lack

1:56
life liberty and the pursuit of happiness they are much worse off now

2:00
than before we invaded

2:02
never again should apply to them to you on my first day in Basra December 25th

2:07
2005

2:08
my family's house lost electricity on the second day we lost water

2:12
on the third day we lost telephone service one cousin said I think tomorrow

2:16
we won't have air

2:17
he was joking but with the hundreds to thousands of tons of depleted uranium

2:22
that continued to fall on iraq as I speak

2:25
every breath is tainted depleted uranium is the most likely etiology for the six

2:30
hundred percent increase in Iraq

2:32
infant mortality rate and 300 percent increase in pediatric leukemias and

2:36
lymphomas after 1991

2:38
is also the most likely cause I'll for syndrome

2:41
during the forty two days in the 1991 Gulf War

2:44
electricity power stations telecommunication centers and sewage

2:48
treatment plants were destroyed their repair or replacement was impeded by

2:52
economic sanctions

2:53
to this day fifteen years later water from the tap is contaminated as I

2:58
accidentally proved during my

3:00
then families have to buy their water from special stations

3:04
for families who can afford it bottled water is better for drinking

3:07
which provides economic gain to Kuwait and Saudi Arabia between my visit in

3:12
2004 and 2006 there has been no

3:15
reconstruction in Basra bombed buildings remain a constant reminder of our

3:19
aerial campaigns one cousin Todd at a primary school that was bombed during

3:23
shock and awe

3:24
to this day the structure is damaged and unusable streets are filled with garbage

3:29
and sewage

3:30
I'm drivable because the bombing damage and general disrepair

3:33
we traffic lights were installed while I was there did limited electricity they

3:37
are non-functional hospital throughout Iraq were crippled by sanctions as well

3:42
have been unable to recover

3:44
epidural anesthesia for child labor or disc disease is simply not available

3:48
my the main hospitals in Basra could not do operations for me

3:52
because there was no gone that hospital was still standing however unlike in for

3:57
lou to

3:57
and the segments of the population will suffer the most whenever there's no law

4:02
and order are women and children

4:03
they are the most susceptible to promise violence and kidnapping

4:07
before the invasion my cousin aid 18 traveled around basra independently

4:12
today it is unsafe for her to go out without being accompanied by a man

4:16
at ordinary iraqis guy every day

4:20
it does not matter if you call it civil war sectarian strife

4:23
or democracy it is by design an American killing field

4:28
a smokescreen for stealing oil its family

4:31
Iraqi and American who are paying the highest price for the disaster

4:35
US foreign policy this Congress has appropriated hundreds of billions of

4:39
dollars for illegal occupation

4:41
but the money is being spent on our marine military vehicles

4:44
and it's not going towards helping returning veterans with health care

4:47
budget came up one billion dollar short in 2005

4:51
under Paul grammer's regime in Iraq nine billion dollars went missing

4:55
nine billion could we have used the money here at home

4:59
we should ask the people of New Orleans a city that with seventy percent black

5:02
now scattered across the country and why Louisiana and Mississippi were gasping

5:07
for air

5:07
6800 members have their national guard for any rock

5:11
as part of a military force inflicting the same death and destruction at

5:15
between on the civilian population there

5:18
in September 2001 with the exception of barbara Lee

5:21
Congress gave a blank check for war to the designer

5:25
who have access to chemical biological and nuclear weapons

5:28
we are the ones using white phosphorus we are the ones using napalm and its

5:32
derivatives

5:33
we are the ones using depleted uranium this is not a war on terror this is a

5:38
war on terror

5:40
your obligation to the people of iraq to the people of America and to the rest of

5:44
the world

5:45
is the immediate unconditional withdrawal of American troops and

5:48
mercenaries from

5:49
iraq in the word the path and dry alive

5:52
president of the butter or oil workers union we as a union call from

5:56
for the withdrawal of foreign occupation forces and the military bases

6:00
we don't want a timetable this is a stalling tactic

6:04
we will solve our own problems we are iraqis we know our country and we can

6:08
take care of ourselves

6:09
we have the means the skills and resources to rebuild and create our own

6:13
democratic society

6:15
bring the troops home make it your number one priority and if lives

6:19
depended on it because it does

6:21
bring them home now thank you
