OK, he didn’t use the word “uppity”, but considering his behavior, where he seems to make a living out of condemning things like Rap music (and getting the lyrics wrong in the process), his screeds against the Iraqi people on Billo’s show should come as no surprise.
But’s let’s read what he said (vid below):
WILLIAMS: But on a serious level, how many American lives have been sacrificed to the cause of liberating Iraq? How much money has been spent while they’re not spending their own profits from their oil? American money. So I just think it’s absolutely the act of an ingrate for them to behave in this way. Just unbelievable to me.
Them, huh….They should shut up and sing spirituals eat their falafel.
Yes, they are ingrates because they object to being invaded and conquered, which has created this reality:
- More than four million Iraqis forced to flee either to another part of Iraq or abroad.
- Four million Iraqis regularly cannot buy enough food.
- 70 percent are without adequate water supplies, compared to 50 percent in 2003.
- 28 percent of children are malnourished, compared to 19 percent before the 2003 invasion.
- 92 percent of Iraqi children suffer learning problems, mostly due to the climate of fear.
And those numbers ignore the somewhere north of ½ million dead that are a result of the mess we made.
They should be grateful, because even though we took them prisoner and sold them as slaves across the oceans, their life is much better on the plantation …. they get purple fingers.
Could someone explain to me why Juan Williams isn’t excluded from polite society like David Duke?
