I urge everyone (yes, that includes YOU!) to listen to this heartbreaking interview with 3 Iraqi exiles whose names have been changed for fear of reprisal. Their position on the war is unwavering: Destroy Saddam's regime by any means possible.
It's a tragedy that these articulate voices are not able to express themselves freely even outside Iraq. From the conversation, you can easily tell that these are highly educated people and anyone familiar with the history of Iraq knows that there are many more just like them, driven out of Iraq by the thugs now in power....Iraq had everything going for it: The world's second largest oil reserves, 2 great rivers, agricultural riches, magnificent historical and archeological sites, a well-educated population, an established tradition of art, poetry, music, literature and architecture, beautiful scenery in the north... All this was squandered by Saddam and his goon squad in his reign of terror of the past 30 years.
