Iraq's standard of living

Matthew Hoy
By Matthew Hoy on January 29, 2004

I commented earlier this week on Democrat presidential hopeful Howard Dean's incredibly stupid statement that Iraqis standard of living was lower now than it was under Saddam. Now an Iraqi blogger has some words for Dean.

I’m not going to comment about the rightness of the statement with more than saying that only a (blind) man would believe it and only a man blinded by his ambitions would dare to say it, but when you say such words, don’t you mean in other words that the sacrifices made by the American soldiers are all in vain? And that these soldiers are not doing a service to the world, nor to Iraqis and not to America. In fact you are saying that since they didn’t do the world, America or us a favour then they’re only doing a favour to GWB and his administration.

And that's just a start. Read the whole thing.
