Title: Saddam is dead
Post by: Thud on February 16, 2003, 08:20:01 AM

End then what ?

I do want to support a war against Iraq because I believe that its people deserve to be rid of Saddam and his downright criminal reign. The whole idiocy of Saddam being a threat to others than his own people, his ties with AQ and all that are a laughing stock in my opinion, but if those beliefs ultimately will bring Saddam down I´ve got no problems with these being the excuse for starting a war.
What does concern me is the future of Iraq, what will happen after Operation Liberty Strike or any of the likes. Between all the incoherent motivations for war spewed by GWB and his administration I´ve failed to notice a clear and realistic plan concerning the  make-up of a postwar Iraq.
And only when there is an acceptable pla for the future of Iraq without Saddam, then the coalition may attack and not a day before that...

Because they haven't called you and briefed you personally you assume there is no plan?

Read before you plead, I stated that ´I failed to notice a plan´, which could be blamed either on me or the actual absence of such a plan...

I saw that.

I can interpret it two ways, I think.

One, you are requesting the BBS community to do your research for you.

You're not really concerned about what is ACTUALLY happening, you just want to vent a bit more here. Because it's not like this hasn't been readily available on all the common news outlets.

Which was it? Or is there a third?
