all this time, in Iraq, only 4000 have died... so I guess, by that logic, that Iraqi civilians are sub-human. Over 1 million have died! This is not all that new of a phenomenon though(the national chauvinistic thinking that American lives are more valuable than non-American lives), but is a thinking that we have to do away with.
And speaking of Korea, and Vietnam(among many others); just like them, Iraq never attacked the U.S. either.

The Democrats are not going to pull out any troops either. Basically if Hillary is victorious, this occupation will continue, just needs a new strategy. McCain: "a hundred years of war", Obama: "we need to increase our soldiers by 100,000". It doesn't matter who is the president assuming that there is an election. Whoever is the president is the president of the USA, which doesn't do humanity any good.

The elections are just to pull the people back into the empire, instead of doing what they need to be doing, taking to the streets in the millions, and taking over the state.

"Elections are controlled by the bourgeoisie; are not the means through which basic decisions are made in any case; and are really for the primary purpose of legitimizing the system and the policies and actions of the ruling class, giving them the mantle of a "popular mandate", and of channeling, confining, and controlling the political activity of the masses of people."-pp 68 Democracy: Can't We Do Better Than That?, Bob Avakian, Banner Press
