Cited from cnn, concerning the burning oil fields in Iraq:

"Now can you imagine an Iraq with a secular," (Saddam`s ain`t much religious), "democratic" (by whose standarts), "grateful regime....", "... there`s billions of dollars in this for Iraq and foreign contractors once it rises to compete with Saudi Arabia, whose relations with the US have cooled down since September the 11th"

I say, annex the place right there. WTG USA !

Shouldn't you be eliminating a race of people and invading your neighbors or something?

Did we elect CNN while I was sleeping?

If we do decide to annex Iraq, perhaps your government can offer some advice on the proper protocol for doing so, considering your vast experience with such procedures.

yes , it's terrible how much money france, germany and russia will lose now that their "oil for weapons" deal with saddam is over.

it's not personal, it's just business.

The question is m. Target, why DID you sleep when knowing what could result?

Drink more coffee, many people have died while sleeping.

Not the "we" in California... possibly that other "we" in Florida.

In order of replies so far:

SOB: That`s just plain dumb and provocative. I`m not, and germany hasn`t been in my lifetime. I`ll try to make sure it stays that way, and that following generations grow up in a peaceful country.

midnight Target: You didn`t - sorry to have generalized. It`s just that CNN is perceived as the "voice of america" over here. Clarifying: I think the statement is imperialist, and it`s out on CNN - ugly. Now of course nobody thinks like that statement. Yeah, right.

muckmaw: You just say it`s annexed, and who speaks up gets shot. Plain and simple.

Ahh well. Just heard about Chimpy complaining about Russia allegedly selling Iraq the tech to spoil his gadgets (jammers, NV googles etc)... I could build such a jammer (small range) from scrap parts. WTG deescalating the situation.

But it seems people`s minds are made up and not to be confused with thought. I`m just gonna shut up on the forum and wait for the marines to free me from nazi opression.

i heard the russian GPS jammers don't work too good , i think they were made from old (new for russia) AM tube type radios.

muckmaw · « **Reply #10 on:** March 24, 2003, 12:42:03 PM »

Can you make nightvision scopes out of scrap parts too?

If so, you really took the Iraqi's for a ride, selling them those gadgets, huh?

WTG, German Capitalism!

And allot of old folks here and in other coutries remember it vividly... DEAL with it.

CNN considers itself the voice of America.. or YOU do, that doesn't make it so.

But it seems people`s minds are made up and not to be confused with thought....

Pot calling the kettle black?

I`m just gonna shut up on the forum...

Goody

...and wait for the marines to free me from nazi opression.

Would most likely be the Army... like last time.

Russian Foregign Minister, Igor' Ivanov, already made some comments about silly accusatins from American department of state.

Nightvision scopes can be bought in any hunter shop here, as well as in Europe.

Jammers!? "Aviakonvers" director, Oleg Antonov, already said that their main customer so far was American government.

Stupidity must be infectious in American administration. What's next? I thought that the demand to send away Iraqi diplomatic missions was the summit of idiotism, but they always have something to surprise with.

USSR stopped supplying weapons to Iraq with the start of Iraq-Iran war in 1980. While US was quite happy selling them arms against Iran.
