People seem to forget History.

What comes around , goes around.  And many a time U.S will switch sides when it suits them.  It happened to the Romans, the Persians, the British, the Russians and it will happen to the U.S.

When U.S become a Super Power, it became a target.  When it used nuclear bombs on Japan, it became a Target for Nuclear Warfare.

Iraq will develop nuclear bombs no matter how hard we try to stop it.  Prior to 1991 they said it was 8 years into making nuclear weapons, it is 2002 and they are less than 6 months away.  During the 10 years, in 1998 Coalition forces bombs the crap out Iraq and weapon inspectors did their job.  Iraq should be 4 years away from developing nuclear weapons IF the inspectors did what they said they did.

Now it is obvious that Saddam is getting outside help.

Gentlemen, Saddam is not the worry.  He is the puppet for all those US hatres.  He is mad enough to use these weapons on US and he is getting backing from other countries. IMHO if we go against the U.N, the U.S will have alot more to worry about than Iraq.

I wasn't inspired by his speech.  I kept thinking "he looks like a monkey"  I be there was a teleprompter tech holding a banana on a stick going...

"keep talking georgie and you can have this nice fat 'nanna, won't that be tastey?"

I think Iraq needs to be dealt with, but not with an all out invasion.

Saddam is going to be taken out from within.  The threat of military pressure being currently applied is the right way to go.  Just keep tightening the noose.  Thats the right way to go.

As for Congressman McDermott and people like sandman, well.....what can you say.  Nothing really.

Hope it all works out.

It's a valid point. Statistics are easily manipulated.

Still... when talking heads say things like, "Half of Americans are willing to go to war in Iraq," I hear the other part... half are not.

Either way, we're talking about millions of people on either side of the argument.

Oh... and Nash. Shut the hell up. :D

"I wonder, if Kuwait had no oil fields, would we have spent all the $$(and good men) liberating them?"



Perhaps, but not so vigorously... "


Perhaps? Fah. Most likely the UN wouldve just sat there and bargained like hell to get the iraqui troops out. Not a single bullet from UN forces wouldve been fired if Kuwait was the leading exporter of watermelons in the region instead of oil. No liberation either..and probably the people of Kuwait wouldve been occupied even now.

As far as the speech goes...

I personally dont give a rat's bellybutton WHY the US goes there and cleans the place out of Hussein and his cronies.

For that matter i wouldnt care if it was the vatican sending their army of molesting priests into Iraq, just as long as the end result is the same.

Hussein has to be removed from power. Preferably killed. Very slowly if possible.

Anyone using chemical weapons on ANYONE is guilty of crimes against humanity and must be eliminated ASAP. Hussein has used them repeatedly against his own people. Eliminate him. By any means neccessary.


But wait... the UN didnt give a rat's bellybutton about that happening did they? No oil there. Hmmm. Filing complaint after complaint is the easiest way out.

The Tao of Diplomacy. Thats what the UN is.

Its sickening.

How are you going to defend it, funked? Are you in the military? Are you on active service?

Or will you, like most people who point to that poster, be sitting at home on your fat arses, flicking between the 24 hour news stations with a beer in your hand, looking for who has the best action footage?

(That poster still makes me chuckle though :D - the Spitfire Type R from that site is on my desktop:))
