American soldiers handcuffed and firmly wrapped masking tape around an Iraqi man's mouth as they arrested him on Tuesday for speaking out against occupation troops.

Asked why the man had been arrested and put into the back of a Humvee vehicle on Tahrir Square, the commanding officer told Reuters at the scene: ''This man has been detained for making anti-coalition statements.''

He refused to say what the man said.

1. bush defines freedom differently for iraqis than for americans, or
2. this is how bush defines freedom, period

Espnetboy3, if the troops are representing you , then they are obviously representing ignorance.

No Iraqi connection to 9/11

Osama hates Saddam because he's not a Islamic hard-liner.

So much for bringing Freedom to Iraq. Does anyone really beleive that BS?
