"Future gay terrorists" this is how Robert Rodriguez called two Iraqi boys whom he mocked in a video in his Facebook account. The Alaskan solider decided to entertain himself in the boring war time by mocking two little Iraqi brothers asking them stupid questions in English and they would nod without realizing their meaning till the older brother felt that they were being mocked by a foreigner.
The video caused little disturbance when it was posted in the Facebook , it seems that someone reported that video thankfully and the case is being investigated. Rodriguez made his account private after the media began to speak about it yet the video seemed to find its way in other soldiers' account.
You can see part of it below :
Honestly I am not surprised because Rodriguez by the end of the day is an invader , a soldier in an army that entered Iraq for oil by a lie , he does not surprise me to have that certain convictions and perceptions about the Iraqis and Arabs , that disrespect even for the little ones which his commanders claim to liberate from tyrannies in order to have better future.
I do not have doubt that Rodriguez will be transferred because now he is in danger and he may endanger the other soldiers in Iraq especially the video found its way out.
In the end if Robert Rodriguez had made fun of these little adorable Iraqi boys in front of his camera , he made a fool out of himself in front of the whole world.
Zeinobia, Egyptians treat foreign guests in their country with even more disrespect. Women are insulted and groped, people mocked in the same way as these boys and worse, and there is general lack of honor. I prefer the American "invaders" over Egyptians in their own country.
ReplyDeletePutting aside sexual harassment which Egyptian women suffer from day and night just like foreign ladies and even worse, I do not think we mock Foreigners in fact it is another way around if I may say
ReplyDeleteU prefer invaders to Egyptians in their own country??!! What a sound logic!!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat do you expect, from an invader? What do you expect, from a Jew? What do you expect, from an Arab? What do you expect, from an Egytian? What do you expect, from a Muslim?
ReplyDeleteThose are all things a bigot would say, Zeinobia. You damn a whole group of people for the actions of an individual and all the while pretend you are struggling for human rights?
And what does this have to do with Egypt, dear?
I did not damn anyone on the contrary , Rodriguez came to Iraq with an invader mindset for a war that is not his and this was the evidence.
ReplyDeleteEgyptians care for their Arabic brothers and this is why I highlight such incident.
first place, those stupid and ignorance soldiers dont have the right to be Iraq and their presence is not needed! their presence in that country is because of lies and deceitful! USA, European soldiers need to get their axx out from that country. USA already liberated the people of Iraq from Saddam and already robbed the iraqis of their gold, so now its time for them to leave the country not occupying it! instead of leaving this boredom soldiers in Iraq why dont pull them to Afghanistan to fight Al-Qaeda then we could see how the soldier make use of their energy and military so call skill!!!
ReplyDeleteZeinobia: "I did not damn anyone on the contrary , Rodriguez came to Iraq with an invader mindset for a war that is not his and this was the evidence."
ReplyDeleteAnd if I used Hasan the Fort Hood mass-murderer to claim that all Arab immigrants to the US are terrorists would that be bigotry, or just an observation of the "evidence"?
I don't know if you're aware of it or not but you've got a serious problem with Americans on a personal level and it shows through in just about every post you make that even obliquely references the US.
Zeinobia: "Egyptians care for their Arabic brothers and this is why I highlight such incident."
Really? And in what way did you help your Arabic brothers with this post? It seems to me all you succeeded in doing was to incite hate against the US. Maybe you can clarify for me how much better off Iraqis are, now that you highlited this incident for them?
Americans are not ashamed to wash their dirty laundry in public as shown on their own TV news.
ReplyDeleteThe soldier in question does not represent the true average US soldier's behavior and is a disgrace to the US army.
I dare any Egyptian TV that can show a tape of Egyptian secret police joking about the poor bastards they tortured, mocked and beat up.
@anonymous #2 , it seems that you did not follow the incident of Emad El-Kebeer nor other incidents which the TV channels have highlighted
ReplyDeleteZeinobia,
ReplyDeleteFirst, when are you finally gonna learn some English? Your English is terrible! You can't even put one sentense together without making grammatical mistakes. There are some post with such bad English I can't even understand what you are saying.
Second, you said that Egyptians care for their Arab brothers. Like when? When you occupied Gaza from 1949-1967 and oppressed the Pals and didn't let them esteblish their own country and kept them in regugee camps? Or maybe when you invaded Yemen and gased its people in the 1960s and caused a civil war that's been going on ever since? Or maybe when you blockade Gaza?
Or maybe when Egypt invaded and occupied Sudan from 1820 to 1956?
ReplyDeleteJoel if you are so bothered by grammatical mistakes and you do not understand my English why you follow my blog in the first place !!?? It seems that you do understand well and this is why you leave comments so often
ReplyDeleteI will waste my time debating with you because I know this is what you want me too
Regarding your silly comments , well do not you ever dare to speak your country ,when your country officially is invading landing that is not its since 1967
zzzzzz Egypt is extremely racist country, build on pan-Arabism, which is Arab version of Nazism.
ReplyDeleteThe country I live in has never had an issue with Egypt, yet Egyptians were actively hiding the most brutal war criminals who murdered thousands of my ancestors.
Even the bloody pigs like Nasser and Sadat loved Hitler and were openly calling for his reborn. And those sick people are still adored by Egyptians.
There is no wonder you are also a big racist who said "westerners are responsible for increased rate of earthquakes" ... the increased rate which does not exist, but average Egyptian hides their racism in crazy conspiracy theories linked to their crazy religion.
