   While I listened to the testimonies yesterday, especially, I must say that I didn’t know — I mean, not that one has to choose, but still, you know, I didn’t know what was more chilling, you know, the testimonies of those who came from Iraq with the stories of the blood and the destruction and the brutality and the darkness of what was happening there, or the stories of that cold, calculated world where the business contracts are being made, where the laws are rewritten, where a country occupies another with no idea of how it’s going to provide protection to people, but with such a sophisticated idea of how it’s going to loot it of its resources. You know, the brutality or the contrast of those two things was so chilling.
