8:12 pm
a place where the u. s. military was located. we were used to the fact that after some kind of explosion, there would be screams for about half an hour, but then everything will be silent afterwards. that time it was different. the screams continued, and the sounds of shots fired by the american military continued terrifying the residents of the city. it turned out that an american humvee was blown up. they broke into the house of abdul hassan and killed 7 of its residents. they also broke into the house of my cousin and killed the aid of the people who were living there . they also stopped a taxi that was carrying students heading to baghdad to study the executed them in cold blood, the house of i it grey re and killed 4 people. it was a terrible day. it terrified the entire city, the american military, the militants and al qaeda, one might say, we're playing a game of cat and mouse. and ordinary citizens were the only ones who really
8:13 pm
suffered from this. every day we heard shooting in the city, the result of which was always the cold blooded murder of civilians. hundreds of innocent people died in such incidents. he described drug cray soldiers who lost control as they went on a 3 hour killing spree off elephant a 20 years after the americans invaded my country. iraqi still remember this with great pain and suffering because of the disasters the americans left behind. yes, my country suffered from economic weakness due to the devastating war with iran, but life was safe in the cities and in the country as a whole. however, with the arrival of the americans, that security ended before the american invasion. there was a kind of social equality between different levels of society. but after the american invasion, a corrupt class emerged rising above society. previously, iraqis were kind sociable, they showed brotherly feelings towards each other and generosity. but after the

8:15 pm
here. my responsibilities a squad leader is to make sure that none of the rest of my guys died. so no, i don't believe so. and i taught it, and i believe that the u. s. president at the time, george bush and the other leaders who supported him during the occupation of my country as well as their armies bear collective responsibility for every drop of innocent blood shed in my country. any rock, any international courts must work hard to bring those criminals to justice. judicial decisions must be made to improve the transparency of fake western democracy. once again, washington has committed war crimes with impunity. on 20 years later, it is ordinary iraqis that has still paying the price. the war was called over the false claims of said on having weapons of mass destruction. it led to decades of turmoil here on our team will continue to chronicle those deadly days in their aftermath and our special coverage. at this hour,
