BAGHDAD, Iraq Feb. 16 —
Iraq on Sunday gloated over the global outpouring of opposition to the U.S. threat of attack, saying anti-war demonstrations in dozens of countries signaled an Iraqi victory and "the defeat and isolation of America."
Iraq's tightly controlled news media gave prominent coverage to anti-war demonstrations staged around the world on Saturday. Iraqi television showed footage of millions marching in the world's cities under the logo "International Day of Confronting the Aggression."
"The world said with one voice: 'No to aggression on Iraq,'" read a headline in the government daily Al-Jumhuriya. "The world rises against American aggression and the arrogance of naked force," read a front page headline in the army daily Al-Qadissiya.
"These demonstrations expressed in their spirit, meaning and slogans the decisive Iraqi victory and the defeat and isolation of America," Al-Jumhuriya said in a commentary.

As for the Iraqis, what we consider the basis is ensuring that their cities and people survive to celebrate the death of Saddam Hussein, as the hypocritical dishonest Americans and British allowed the people of Spain to live to the death of Franco, and Chileans to survive until the collapse of the murderous Pinochet regime.
These people in Washington: Cheney, Rumsfeld, Powell, have supported so many murderous dictatorships of torturers in Guatemala, Chile, South Africa, the Phillipines, Zaire, Indonesia, that they have ZERO credibility when they talk about their sympathy for the suffering of the Iraqis.
The ignorant brainwashed American public may know nothing about the role of their nation state in creating disaster and sustaining tyranny around the world, but the rest of us have not forgotten.

I am fairly sure that I have more American friends than you will make in your life, and most of these agree with me that regime change begins in Washington.
