How Many People Died?

Lets focus on one war criminal, now that the media is milking the upcoming Saddam Hussein trial for all that it is, just so we can forget about all those other corrupt people, in leading positions. Lets make one man alone, become an image of evil, just so we can make ourselves, seem so much better. The fact that masses of people died and are dying; we never really cared about this and damn it, there have never been a government, that ever cared about it's people. If we or they did, there wouldn't have been this ignorance.

A crime is a crime. A war is a war.
How many people did Hussein kill?
How many people did the American government kill?
Overall, how many killings did we support?
Was my country on it? Was yours?
Why dont they sell Dunkin' Donuts here, or is it Krispy Kreme Doughnuts they are called?
Should I find another article, that supports my way of thinking?
Will there be bad entertainment in the news?
Will I be amused?
How many people die from starvation every day?
Can I get great quotes and milkshake with that?

Since I last talked about the Iraq war, in my writing spot; Tell me if things have changed in Iraq, tell me if things have changed in United States, to the better? It becomes tedious to read about now and sometimes I miss the facts, because I have cared more about World Of Warcraft lately and nothing new seem to pass me by... I think I remember some American war supporters, said they hoped it would be a swift operation. That was years ago now.

It's obvious, something I thought from the start; the US will never leave Iraq, or any other country they conquered (which by now includes a lot of countries). The permanent military bases are there to stay, for as long as the country is a puppet, to this phony political game.

Talking about government. We now have a new prime minister here in Norway. I voted with my heart, as I planed. The results are the best I could hope for, at this point. For a few years I have been a member of the Socialist Left Party, not because I agree with everything they do or stand for, but because they have been, when you consider the biggest parties here in Norway, to be the one I agree with the most. I became a member of this party, after I had read the whole party issues program, to all big and small political parties here in Norway. So naturally I'm glad, that they will be a leading party, in our current government, together with the Labour Party who won the election.

But what I am most happy about, is the fact that all the Norwegian military troops, will be pulled out of Iraq. Norway never agreed to this war, not the majority of our people and not the majority of our politicians. The leading party that sat in position up until now, still decided to send out military units, to help the Americans and the Brits. Talk about democracy!

If nothing extremely good comes out of this election, we atleast managed to finally have our correct stand on a war, that had nothing to do with us.
