Sorry but its just plain stupid to go to Iraq for buisness!!! - GoFuckYourself.com

First of all my condolences to the boys family..Especially being a parent I can't ever imagine having to watch your child being killed..His screams were the worst part of the video.

This 26 year old was in Iraq trying to buisness with his antenna company. There has already been employees from Hallebutron that were killed. Common sense is with all the hatred towards us in the USA you have to be crazy to go there for work. Money just isn't that important.. Also his last name is Berg and he could possibly be jewish.

Its really sad all the hatred in the world. I am not religious. I have never read the bible. I'm not sure if it is true but I have heard in the bible it states "An EYE for an EYE". It's enough already.

All these countries base there feelings on one another by the aid and buisness they do with each other. MONEY IS TRULY THE ROOT OF ALL EVIL. And all countries and not just the US is gulity..

All this will only get worse. There are just so many terrorists and people who hate us. I think we need to take a different approach.

Speaking of Halliburton and working in Iraq, they're predicting earnings of around 1 billion dollars a year for the next 10 years.

i was thinkin the same exact fuckin thing. of all places in the world, why go to Iraq to try rebuilding antennas?
i know he's experienced with third world countries and all (going to Ghana and shit). but dawg africans ain't arabs! matter fact arabs hate niggas (slavery is still goin on in the Maghreb, but don't nobody wanna talk abou it), arabs hate americans, arabs hate anybody that ain't arab. why fuck around in Iraq during these hot times? i mean, common sense...

There was a caller on Bruce Williams show who was making a decision to go to Iraq to take a job. He was a truck driver here and was making less money due to the economy. He answered an ad for oversees work that would pay him $120,000 for a year in Iraq. He wanted to take it so he could send the money home to his wife and get some bills paid.

Our own people can't make ends meet and this is attractive to them?

Yea my neighbor got offered a job in iraq for 6 months for $250,000 I think it is for work on telephone lines or something like that. It is tempting but no money is worth the cost of death.

I wonder if there entire company had to relocate there if they still take that deal?? The big wigs make all the cash and take no risks while there employees take the risk of being killed

Fabien · 05-11-2004, 07:53 PM

I wouldn't go there EVEN IF YOU OFFERED ME 1 000 000 cash !

(hummmm well.......)

Illicit · 05-11-2004, 07:58 PM

your right money isnt worth risking your life like that... but I guess they look at the odds, and they are still pretty good to get in and out alive

Tuna · 05-11-2004, 08:02 PM

no amount of money is worth losing your life. its a shame that some americans need to find work in other countries in order to make a living.

reynold · 05-11-2004, 08:08 PM

Maybe they should offer those jobs to the people who have suicidal tendencies!

vas · 05-11-2004, 08:15 PM

Best idea I heard yet. They won't mind dying as much as the rest of us and if they finish their term alive they have some decent bank roll to show for it and may end up with a renewed vigor for life.
