New Iraq, The


America
          We're coming after Saddam Hussein.  He may have helped the Tali-ban jack the planes.

Iraq
          We will never grant you permission to execute such a gun-ho mission.

America
          We'll invite our own admission.  This will be a mutually beneficial mission.  We never thought of asking the peoples permission.
          We'll take him away & lock him in prison, he'll never hurt anyone else again, and we'll bring his regime to an end.

Iraq
          Now you send a full battalion invasion?

America
          We're here because we have justification.  His actions alone require incrimination.

Iraq
          Your words are still without persuasion.

America
          All we want is assimilation, uh, we mean, to provide you with a better nation.  One free of this tyrants dictation.  The laws & rules that govern our nation will be adopted for your salvation.

Iraq
          The ways of your country are not as they seem.  You preach of this "American Dream," but you have people under oppression.  A laps in government caused a "Great Depression" now your success should be our lesson?

America
          We're not saying we're more successful, but removing Saddam is detrimental.
          You know the things he's put you through; we'd be a great relief to you.

Iraq
          How strong could your care for our safety be?  You too bring tyranny.  We see American soldiers & fight or flee.

America
          Come on, really how bad could we be?

Iraq
          You have also tortured & humiliated.  Now you wonder why you're being debated?  Those are our people you have degraded, but you vow justice on those who retaliated when both actions seem to be related.

America
          But we'll reconstitute your government & give you the freedoms that God meant, just run under an American department.  And you can save your money it wont cost you a cent.  We'll just take your oil as repayment.

Iraq
          Your American hands slap & take; now we may bend, but we won't break.

America
          What bends will eventually break & what we want we always take.
          Consider yourself luck that you're not Cherokee, we might have considered the entire country.
          Now this is how things will be, your outlook on current society will be changed dramatically; you'll be stripped of your ancestry instead of letting cultural change come naturally.  You'll be infected, we mean protected, under a new policy.  Can't you see our sincerity?  We're doing this for the good of our... your country.
          After all is done & we draw back, you'll be known as The New Iraq, and then maybe, you can have your country back.
