If you were America alone, you will not be able to enter Iraq and we will wipe out the land with you, and not be with you all the countries of Europe and all the Arab countries and NATO alliance
Wont apologize to native indians? They are not required to pay taxes, they get free land, get to build casinos (funded by the government) and many of them received free housing. If that is not considered an apology, then IDK wtf is!
Eric Von oh the land US was going to run pipe lines through until the nation boycotted the banks involved? Most those casinos are not owned by native Americans, but by White People who claimed Indian years ago when the rule was invented, I mean this is common US history that has been shown and exposed.
Covert Puppytwo When have we ever apologized? American exceptionalism is alive and vibrant, do you tell a person who repeatedly abuses his power to stop apologizing after 1 or 2 times? So we should continue to abuse our power but because we apologized for one crime we can no longer apologize for another?
Without the US, you wouldn't have the internet, but I guess I'll apologize on behalf of the country for bringing civilization and secularism to the world.
@@noco7243 , come on!! are you suggesting that democracy is an American , or Anglo-saxon for that matter, invention?? Let me ask you when did you introduce universal voting rights for your citizens?

Mehdi is incredibly unprofessional.. i agree with almost everything he says too but his delivery and extreme lack of respect is immature and hard to watch. He also clearly has a very difficult time understanding what happens in war.. Hes treating this conflict like it was ww2 or something. ITS WAR. BAD THINGS HAPPEN AND INNOCENT PEOPLE DIE. If its intentional? those soldiers should absolutely be prosecuted but this so called journalist sounds like an angry child that lacks critical thinking and has no ability to consider anything other than his own opinions.
Just lie after lie. This guy was just completely fabricating and selectively cherry picking the most random ideas he could find. Thank you Mehdi for bringing the massacres, even the obscure ones, to light. And what does he do? Deny they even happened. The next step from oppressing a people is to deny it ever occurred.
Hasan makes 3 central flawed arguments. I refute them below: Everyone notice the edits when Mark gives an answer to a question - the cutaways are very clear to hide his actual responses. Al Jazeera has been well documented for manipulating debates/discussions like this to push their anti-US narrative. Aside from this obvious manipulation to the trained eye, it's worth also noting several myths and fake news points made by Hasan. Point 1: Invasion was NOT illegal! Use of Force was authorised by the BINDING UNSCR 1441, specifically by 678 & 687, which were called upon (without edit), to Use of Force. As John B. Bellinger III, former Legal Adviser for the Department of State (05-)09, and Senior Associate Counsel to the President and Legal Adviser to the National Security Council at the White House from 01-05, notes on his Lawfare piece titled, The Chilcot Inquiry and the Legal Basis for the Iraq War "The Council had in effect decided in advance that Iraq was already in material breach and would be in further material breach if it did not comply with its obligations under 1441 (which it did not), thus reaffirming the right of member states to use force pursuant to UNSCRs 678/687, as states had done through the 1990s." This is noted by other world-leading experts: Pedrozo, Raul. A, "Legal basis for US Military Operations in Iraq" The War in Iraq: A Legal Analysis US Naval War College, 2010, 45-48 Wall, Andru E. "Was the 2003 invasion of Iraq legal?" The War in Iraq: A Legal Analysis US Naval War College, 2010, 69-78. William H. Taft IV; Todd F. Buchwald, Preemption, Iraq, and International Law , The American Journal of International Law, Vol. 97, No. 3. (Jul., 2003), pp. 557-563. And many, many more. Also worth noting as well that several UNSC Resolutions AFTER 1441, CONTINUED to authorise Use of Force, occupation, and handing over sovereignty and for member states to continue in stability operations, such as UNSCR 1483, 1511 and 1546. Point 2: WMDs were FOUND! FOIA documents titled: A)"Iraq: Recovered Chemical Weapons Update (April 2009 - March 2011)" b) "Iraq: Chemical Weapons Continue to be Recovered" c) "Iraq: Chemical Weapons Assessment January 2008- March 2009" For those that do not know: Chemical weapons = WMDs as they are CBRN. Point 3: No one stated Iraq under Saddam had AQ connections. The USIC DID confirm he had connections a decade prior, however, NOT connected to 9/11. This is why the 2002 AUMF did not cite any connection to 9/11. ^So that's the 3 larger mistakes Hasan made, (has always made, and will continue to make). I'm sorry to the gullible idiots in this comment section and the viewers in general who think unsupported talking points makes a coherent argument. This is basically a verbal tabloid headline being regurgitated in conversation, typical for propaganda.
Is it time the devil apologized for being evil? Is it time a lawyer apologized for lying? Is it time that a snake apologized for being sneaky and conniving?
I honestly laughed at 5:12 when he said Saddam wouldn’t run a Mesopotamian holiday spa. I’m not saying he would but if you ask any Iraqi today if they would prefer Iraq today or Iraq during Saddams reign, they would most likely choose Iraq with Saddam as leader. I’m an Iraqi Kurd, only reason I mention that is because plenty of my relatives were killed because of Saddam. My father escaped captivity a day before he was going to be executed. Yet my Father, Mother and all my relatives all prefer Saddam Hussein 1000x over what we have right now. Ps: I love my fellow Iraqis, arabs, Turkmen and Assyrians. So don’t start a Kurdistan debate, please.
MEHDI HASSAN THIS IS WHY I WORSHIP YOU THIS IS WHY I CONSIDER YOU AMONG THE GREATEST JOURNALISTS OF ALL THE TIME THANK YOU FOR QUESTIONING THIS PIG ABOUT THEIR DESTRUCTION OF IRAQ RESPECT FROM KASHMIR
Carlos Danger where's your proof Stupid ? Also it's not Jewish land it's the Palestinians land they were kicked out of there land homes Israel kills innocent people everyday also for your info they are breaking international law.
Those who were once promising but have now lost all moral integrity will never admit to their failings. America should commit itself to making right the wrongs done by their government.
How would we feel if someone did that to us. What America has done in Africa, the middle east and the american Indians. Tears of blood would run down the streets of the west. May the God protect us all from these hypocrites.
the Damage was done.Even If every one responsible for that mess apologize 200 billions times won't make any difference to all those dead,wounded,misplaced civilians.
Mehdi can have his own channel and I would just watch it all day and pay netflix subscription prices to get that. This man is what a real journalist looks like
Forget the apology. These war mongers should be held accountable for their war crimes and atrocities. Absolute power absolutely corrupts. Excellent questions and follow-up by the interviewer.
The real reason why America invade Iraq has been brilliantly posed in the form of a question -rhetorical depending on how see it- by the great war journalist Robert Fisk. He wondered "If the national gross product of Iraq has been asparagus or potatoes, they [Americans] wouldn't invade Iraq"
And this is why , as an iraqi born and raised in Sweden I will never EVER respect the UNITED SNAKES of America , it's fine. Since Russia and China are changing the paradigm id rather pick up an Ak than a m16. Slava Rassiya
Oh and also China is now being bitchy towards Muslim Uyghur ethnic. Again, what's the point of being a fan of oppressors of muslim people as you're a muslim iraqi
As a Muslim, know that Russia and China are just as malicious to you as the west... Everyone on the political ground has proven to be evil, thus far...
Mr. Kimmitt, even Tony Blair apologized. How difficult is it for you to just apologize to the Iraqi People? I'm an Iraqi born Chaldean Christian American Citizen. My heart weeps for all of the American/British/Australian and other Military men and women who were killed and injured. I do know many children that are still scarred! As an adult, I'm still praying for God to completely heal my mind and heart from everything that I have seen, read and heard from my family members. I love and bless my beautiful America and will always defend her, however YOU GOT IT WRONG......PERIOD!
Tell me what will that apology would change, can it bring back the lives of the millions lost ? Will that stop USA from looting their oil reserves ? No, No No ... No .... No.... No..
Amazing discussion. The Americans couldn't oppose what Russia does today in Syria. They made a grave mistake in invading Iraq. Russia will redeem Syria.
Are you serious Russia will redeem cereal and what space and what space in your mind that Russia will redeem cereal that's all they have done is giving weapons to to that country into that president to commit atrocities it's unbelievable how many atrocities is that that the sharing government and the in the Syrian army have done too cereal and in the country that those people have left on have flooded to to Europe and to America because of what Russia has done and what should never apologize for nothing that they have done at least Americans have gone under military court for the thing that the things that they have done we can actually say that we put people out people in jail our military in jail and we do something wrong can't watch it say the same thing
And I am a former US Army soldier that was sent to your country twice in 2005-2006 and 2008-2009. Perhaps the U.S. government won’t apologize, but I will..... I’m sorry we disrupted and invaded your country and people. Wish you all the best!
Has anyone asked the Iraqis are they willing to accept a meaningless word "Sorry" for the deads of hundreds of thousands of men, women, elders, and children; millions of injured and refugees that no country is willing to accept? It's no different someone kills your mother and then comes to you to apologize. Are you willing to accept the apology? That's exactly how the Iraqis feel about American's apology.
Well done Mahdi, why you did not tell this "informed" man that yes the second phase of "Islamic Militancy" start after US invasion of Iraq and the first phase begin after "US Jihad" in Afghanistan.
Its overdue.... the alliance headed by america not only should apologise but compensate iraq for the thousands of innocent children and women and the old killed and shamelessly calling it collateral
If brutal and imperial Empire USA killer-troops are innocent of deliberately butchering civilians, why is it that the Empire builders who orchestrate such corruption make sure that a Status Of Forces Agreement exempts their troops from criminal prosecution in stationed nation?
Americas leaders have embarrassed the nation and American people. not to mention killed slandered and destroyed not only Iraqi's but their own brothers and their families including children. what cowards and psycho's. my prayers are for all those suffering including my Iraqi brothers.
In the realm of liars pathological, a fool is one who refuses to except the truth, when warned that liars are using a pretense of good to hide their intent to be enriched upon our misery.
Apologies? What happened with the international justice system? You don't apologize away from crimes of this size. These criminals should be sentenced. They moved into a country for their own political gain. Not out self defence. Not to help. It was a calculated political move.
This is what 🇺🇸 did to Iraq 🇮🇶 but what I sure is 🇺🇸 will reggae to what they did to Iraq why did they not attack to Russia because they can not avoid gentlemen putin what a great he is
Simply amazing, while admitting to so many mistakes and faults which has cost so many lives, yet not willing to say 'sorry' . This sums up the USA attitude around the world, especially the weaker nations.
Iraq war is a crime against humanity, and the us government owes apology to people of Iraq. and Afghanistan. who gives you the right to go declare a war because some country have WOMD, because they are threat to you. How about you guys, that you are threat to others. what a hypocrisy.
By the rise of China economically it's role has become more significant in world's decision-making process now it is not possible for America to invade any country with impunity, it is apparent now that with the passage of time it will not be possible for America to maintain it's dominating position in the world, election of Donald Trump as the president of United States shows disappointment of US citizens by the method of running of the state affairs.
They are too Cowardly to Apolgize
we got it wrong but we aint sorry!?!?! WTF

If brutal and imperial Empire USA killer-troops are innocent of deliberately butchering civilians, why is it that the Empire builders who orchestrate such corruption make sure that a Status Of Forces Agreement exempts their troops from criminal prosecution in stationed nation?

Killing and displacing millions of people and simply apologise in the end!!!!????????.
Americas leaders have embarrassed the nation and American people.
not to mention killed slandered and destroyed not only Iraqi's but their own brothers and their families including children.
what cowards and psycho's.
my prayers are for all those suffering including my Iraqi brothers.
There is nothing to apologise for.

In the realm of liars pathological, a fool is one who refuses to except the truth, when warned that liars are using a pretense of good to hide their intent to be enriched upon our misery.
Apologies? What happened with the international justice system? You don't apologize away from crimes of this size. These criminals should be sentenced. They moved into a country for their own political gain. Not out self defence. Not to help. It was a calculated political move.
