10Bears, you seem to ignore the fact that Saddam has already offered a reward for any surviving family members of martyrs that kill Americans. It's obvious that the first death this causes will give us reason to attack Iraq. No, it doesn't matter what the U.N. says THIS week, when they'll only change their position after such an attack takes place. I say we don't wait. We have the provocation already.
Obviously, I wasn't clear on my statement of dislike for people of the region. I have worked with some of these amazinhunks in the past. Even in school in America, and working for American dollars, the people I met were talking up trash about killing Americans that violated their lands just by setting foot there. They want our aid, but they want to be able to say where ELSE we give aid. They want to be able to have someone like Saddam as their leader, a bully, a tryrant, a dictator that chooses to attack, kill, maim, and destroy whoever he pleases, and yet deny us the ability to strike back. The one thing that absolutely drives these fanatics crazy is when we install leaders in their country, like we did the Shah in Iran. It drives them so crazy they will come to our country, work for our money (taking a job from real Americans), and then use that money against us. I suppose some twisted ideal could be used to legitimize their reasoning, but it still goes against Americans. If you feel so driven as to side with them, to legitimize their actions, then wait until it's over and then pay reparations to the survivors.
It's not a question of finishing what we started ten years ago (not really). It's about preemptively eliminating any threat that could make the WTC pale in comparison. You don't seem to recall the horror of people leaping from one-hundred stories, or the absolute revulsion of helpless individuals in the airliners that struck the WTC. Have you forgotten the civil service personnel that dies just trying to do their job? Those were AMERICANS pal. I was born not even fifteen miles from ground zero. Two graduates from my high school senior class died in that attack against American soil. How many others have to die before you liberal punks see the light?
G.W. is not king. He is the Commander in Chief of our military. When he says "Go here, and attack there" then you can bet your bottom dollar the military will do so. This is a war against terrorism, and Saddam just made his entire country a terrorist training camp. So, let's open our hearts and cry a river about what a financial burden this war will be. Wars cost money. You might have to go without a few things. I think ending terrorism will be worth it, especially if American kids can grow up without fear of being gassed, nuked, or poisoned.
You tell us who else has made threats like Saddam (of those 15 other nations) and you can bet they'll make the list, too. Terrorism is going down, and not for a Lewinski.
Hiding nukes in the sand? Man, you really have no idea what you're talking about. If, he has nukes in the sand, we can find them. If he's hidden anything in the sand you can bet we already know where they are. Don't be stupid.
Yeah, I'm real worried about sanctions against the U.S. NOT!
Saddam fancies himself to be a modern day Nebuchadnezzar. The reincarnation of Nebudchadnezzar, actually. If, you don't know anything about Nebuchadnezzar, you need to read up on it. Ol' Neb' was a real turd! He sacked Israel, for one thing, but he also murdered millions. He destroyed Solomon's temple, and was so troubled by his own conscience that he needed his dreams interpreted (what he really needed was psychiatric care) as these nightmares were making rest impossible. When he could not find anyone to do as he asked, he had anyone of wisdom and education killed. He forbid the practice of religion except the worship of him. Well, in the end ol' Neb' was deposed, and was driven from his people to live with the wild donkeys in the area. Persia (Iran) took half his kingdom. "The Great Babylon" that he built was eventually destroyed, but today Saddam is rebuilding it.
That's about all the proof you need to confirm that Saddam is insane. Ironic though, that his reign may end the same way, if he survives it at all. Oh wait, do liberals believe in reincarnation? Damn, no wonder Clinton left this one alone.
Oh, and 10Bears, I live in Arkansas. That doesn't make me a redneck. You wanna come down here I'll show you some rednecks. I consider that term to be the equal of love muffin, so watch it bud!
