The largest one ever, they say. Did the Iraqis rally to thank Americans for their freedom? Did they rally in appreciation of 2700+ Americans who have died for their freedom? Did they rally because our president has put our country dangerously into debt to support them? No. :shock: The rally called for "Death to Americans". They walked on and burned American flags. Several members of the elected Iraqi government even attended the rally. These people don't want us there; bring our troops home now. Link below; my emphasis.
"“Hundreds of thousands of Shiites chanting "Death to Israel" and "Death to America" marched through the streets of Baghdad's biggest Shiite district Friday in a show of support for Hezbollah militants battling Israeli troops in Lebanon.
No violence was reported during the rally in the Sadr City neighborhood. But at least 26 people were killed elsewhere in Iraq, most of them in a car bombing and gunbattle in the northern city of Mosul.
The demonstration was the biggest in the Middle East in support of Hezbollah since the Israeli army launched an offensive July 12 after a guerrilla raid on northern Israel. The protest was organized by radical Shiite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr, whose political movement built around the Mahdi Army militia has been modeled after Hezbollah."
