Worst news this decade

Dr. Maryam, an Iraqi pediatrician, comments in this long thread about the American imperial invasion of her country. She is not at all charitable to America or Americans, and honestly I don't think there's any reason to be, either. Believe her words, or don't believe them, but I don't think we can afford to pretend anymore.

I'd apologize, but the real damage has been done, and unless I'm willing to go camp on my Congressperson's doorstep, I am only voicing hollow, meaningless words. We need to get out of Iraq now. Recovery and rebuilding will never occur until we do.

Oh brother, what the fuck have we done?
