Iraqi Flag removed and replaced with a interim Flag..

My dad lived in Saudi Arabia for 10 years and he only ever saw a few crimes being committed. If you robbed you got your fingers chopped off, it's not exactly hard to see why there's no crime there. I am aware that there is more civilised countries in the Middle East like the one's you mentioned, but Saudi Arabia has a 6 times bigger population than the United Arab Emirates, with just a minor 4 million people living in it. Population seems to largely come down to it, Kuwait is tiny...

I know how tough Saudi are with crime but the country is very boring to live in. Cinemas are banned, women have to cover up, women cannot drive etc.

Saudi Arabia has the most oil in the world btw, Iraq is second.

No I believe Iraq has the most but saudi pumps out the most.

No I haven't, neither has he, neither have you. However I have looked at this in great depth and have an opinion and from anyone with common sence it shows that under Saddam Iraq was better.

Actually I have been to Iraq. I went there in 1997 (and 1993 but was too young to remember much at that time) to visit some family.

Iraq is far better of without Saddam. All we have to do now is wait 5-10 years for everything to settle down. Under Saddam there was no hope.

So how was Iraq when you went 11 years ago? At least when Saddam was incharge you could actually go to Iraq, as you just admitted you can't go with the state it's in now.

Yeah it's fantastic how everyones family members are dead and how the hardline people now rule. I cannot understand how you can say it's better. Terrorists are now ripe in Iraq when before there were none, Roads are ruined, buildings destroyed, American companies are now pumping out the oil, no water due to pipes ruined, families being displaced and electric gone.

Many Iraqis aren't happy and were, I quote

Again, it shows how much they loved and admired Saddam Hussein yet we took their leader away from them and killed innocent people turning the country into a hellhole.

Surely it's only a matter of time before they go mouldy then.

On a more serious note, Iraq's in a period of transition. There's nearly always going to be some resistance to change, but that change is often for the better in the long term. I mean, the UK could still be under an absolutist monarch ruling with 'divine right', but thanks to Cromwell and his pals the country's more democratic!

On a totally unrelated note, hasn't the British Garrison in Basra completely pulled back to Basra Airport to maintain a training and support role, not a peacekeeping one, because our General's felt the Iraqi Police could handle it on their own?
We're totally hanging in there for the oil!!

And, I'm going to follow Undertaker and claim that Hitler was good too!! He modernised Germany, brought it out of the depression, maintained order in his Empire... Hell, he was amazing for Europe. Don't hate Hitler, Hug a Hitler!!

:rolleyes:
