CULTURAL DOC

Cultural Document-
The cultural document I chose to examine is an interview of a commander of army in Iraq name Baker Scorpion. The interview is base on the village where many children and adults were killed by the Al-Qaida. The questions by Michael yon an Interviewer, are basic about what happened, why this happen and who are to blame. Commander Baker talks about how Al-Qaida will force them to interfere with American Soldiers and not to defend them. And How the Al-Qaida will come to many Villegas and create a mass murder phase to show everyone of their lethal power. This can be a case of intimidation for many Iraqis to scare them off fighting back. The interview expresses two of the five faces of oppression. The main one it points out is powerless; Where the Iraqis villagers are too powerless to be fighting back from this Al-Qaida Attacks. The army is not strong due to fewer soldiers, where only few are brave and strong to fight for their country. The last face of oppression the interview express is Violence. In Iraq it is no safe to even walk in a restaurant or even in a mall due to suicide bombing, or fight between the Al-Qaida. Violence: Killing little children in Iraq over Power or burning down a village to prove a point. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5KlECo0KOU4
