Someone alluded to a story that's gonna break this week involving a group of Texans and some pretty thick involvement in this scandle. No idea if it's gonna happen, but it's going to be interesting if it does...
Not so much because I find the story itself interesting, but more so from the reactions of those who have been heaping tons of blame on France et al.

What'll be even MORE interesting is that the reaction will be that any US citizens involved should be punished swiftly and severely, moreso perhaps than even the French et al.

The UN has been useful in the past. To us, is it still worth the money we throw at it? While it does give voice to many countries that would otherwise go unheard I think it's time we cut off this world welfare program and establish relationships with all countries individually. Get US out of the UN.

I'd like to see you get banned for that display of distasteful hatred.
But I'm just a fascist.

I'd really like to know what you find funny in that?
-
those iraquis with pwned PSed on their faces were maybe not as bad, but in the same vein, and no one complained to say the least.
-
Political satire has to have some element of truth or at least supposed truth in order to be even a bit funny. The first comic does. Staga's might to some if there were claims of private contractors raping Iraqis at the direction or approval of the US military, there aren't.

Marlet & Iron...you guys serious?
I mean, Rip posts a funny, yet very offensive, comic (which you no doubt agree with) and Staga sends one back your way and you get upset.
LOL...you guys have some seriously thin skin.
-
I'm not upset. I just find his cartoon to be unfunny and would like to understand why he does.

Rip's comic was offensive? It it's implying those those nation's and the UN were profitting off the oil for food program while condemning the war in Iraq.
Staga's states the US hands out medals to people who rape and torture the most prisoners.
If you don't see the difference, you have a seriously hosed value system.

So far you have one document conservatives sources (read Fox) pretend to be genuine but can be as fake as the 2003 Roland missiles...
And this document name some individual and in no case mention the French republic (also know as the Nation in France)
So I reiterate :

Hardly....
Secretary General Kofi Annan has pledged a complete investigation and promised that those found guilty of corruption or improper behavior will be punished. To that end, Annan recruited former Federal Reserve Chairman Paul Volcker to lead a U.N.-sponsored probe.

hey be nice to the french! they saved us from the brits, the mexicans, the brits, the confederacy, the brits, the germans, the french.....oh wait :rofl

Rusia and France lost a lot more than a little oil for food slush once the US invaded. Conversely, the US picked up all the concessions that France and Russia lost. You have all you need to know regarding the motivations of all concerned right there. Rip's retarded comic is just FUD, much as the whole WMD/terrorism issue was.
Depressing to see that critical thinking is still on vacation in your neighbourhood.

Heh, stinks when you get caught with your pants down, doesn't it?
At least now we know why France wouldn't support the war. They'd lose their gravy train.

I agree, it's neither a comic or funny. I would say it's bad taste as well but then most comics aren't very PC. I was meaning Rip's original comic and others from varying political views on this or any other subject.

Ahhhh. Sorry. I misunderstood.
I don't mind comics that aren't PC. That's usually what makes them funny. Even comments no in line with my political views can be funny. Even if I don't find them funny, I usually don't find them insulting.
Staga's comment just crossed the line with me. Obviously it didn't with others. If he finds that funny, I believe it speaks volumes about his character.
-
I wonder if I should take Martlet out from my ignore list?
Naah, better keep him in there; this board looks much more sane now :)

I don't know what's funnier, people that talk about putting people on ignore, or people that don't really have you on ignore and pretend you do.
I guess being right on about his character hit a sore spot with him.

Staga is attempting a diversionary tactic. The Oil for Food scandal will likely never be fully exposed nor is it likely any will be punished. They can blame themselves for killing the UN, maybe we should thank them.

heh sounds similar to Deniro doing Al Capone "You got nothing" routine
seems conservative thought is spreading leftwards as its not just Fox anymore.
Spreading all the way to the CIA as well
MSNBC (http://msnbc.msn.com/id/6194795/)
The report issued Wednesday by Charles Duelfer, head of the Iraq Survey Group, said Saddam Hussein issued secret vouchers for the purchase of oil, which could then be resold at a profit, to an array of officials and political figures from various countries, mainly Russia,France and China
CNN (http://www.cnn.com/2004/WORLD/meast/10/06/iraq.wmd.un.vouchers.ap/index.html)
The secret voucher program was dominated by Russian,French , and Chinese recipients, in that order, with Saddam spreading the wealth widely to prominent business men, politicians, foreign government ministries and political parties, the report said.
The report names former French Interior Minister Charles Pasqua, Indonesian president Megawati Sukarnoputri, and the Russian radical political figure Vladimir Zhirinovsky as voucher recipients, for example, and other foreign governments range from Yemen to Namibia.
Like I said the last time.
I suppose Iraq kept managing to rebuild its radar and anti aircraft sites to modern standards by way of magic Genie

DREDIOCK I question the veracity of the document.
But if I admit it's veracity I still don't see how having individuals named in the document involve the whole French nation.
Do you see my point ?
btw Pasqua was and is an a**hole.
-
I'm sorry to my french friends, but the facts that are coming out look very bad. American companies were involved. There is no denying that either. But the governments that supporeted Iraq are the same governments that were profiting from the 'oil-for-food'program.
-
I guess it looks very good to sell WMD to Iraq, then couple decades later make a big number of the evil dictators WMD arsenal, ruin up the international relationships, start a war with a great hype and end up with no WMD.
...and as a bonus increase the anti-american mentality in the middle east, while fightning the war on terror :D

Fishu, you are waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaay off base. I'm sorry you don't have the intelect to see the difference. Some are just different than others.

Not the whole nation. Just the government.And some private individuals.
"CNN

not to worry. I wouldnt be surprised if there were some people over here in our government who in the end were somehow taking bribes also.
also wouldnt surprise me if they some of them were the same ones who were against the war.
-
DREDIOCK the names I've seen on the list were not in our governement ,Pasqua was not part of any governement since 1995 (or 1996 I don't really remeber)

We are surrounded by enemies intent on our destruction in a real quagmire with no hope of ever accomplishing anything. It's time we pulled out of it, the UN that is.
-
Once again great speak from the one whos country has many times vetoed in UN for it's own good only.
No wonder UN isn't working properly, when a member state is stopping it all the time.
Quit *****in' about UN, ye ain't all that purty saints yerself.
-
The UN can go on it's merry impotent way just fine without us. Time to stop lugging such heavy baggage filled with nothing but dead weight.
Maybe I'm wrong, maybe it's better to stay in the UN if for no other reason than to ensure it remains impotent. Damn costly though.
