So your saying using WMD's within your own country is ok?  

My God, the horror!  I'm going to get the Hague on the line and see if we can have you prosecuted.

Anybody have the phone number for the World Court?

Somebody soon is going to get the joke here...;)

We are not discussing about is it good to use WMD inside your own country or not. Anyway it's internal business of the country. We are talking about using WMD against another country.

But UN Health comittee confirmed using Agent X in Vietnam as WMD usage.


Agent Orange was a defoliant used in Vietnam. When it was used (iirc), detrimental health effects were considered to be minimal or nonexistant to humans.

Estel when you say the US has used WMD's, I consider that to be a battlefield use. Testing nukes isnt the same imo. Althought why we needed to test so many is beyond me.

Yes. It's insane. But isn't insane planning strikes against another nation using WMD?


I think we would both be surprised and shocked at some of the contingincy (sp) plans both our gov'ts have come up with.

But, the thread hasn't died yet.


Not having a solution isn't a prerequisit for debating whether or not a proposed solution is good or bad idea.

I don't know how to stop all crime, but I know that killing everyone is probably a poor solution.

According the official Iranian history of the first "gulf war", Iraqs first chemical attack was on 13 January 1981. By the time the west acknowledged Iraq's weaponised use of the combination of mustard gas and nerve agents in 1984, there had been 63 separate gas attacks by the Iraqis.

No, but then there are laws that are enforced to prevent/punish crime. We know crime is going to happen and that we will catch some and miss others. This doesn't stop us from trying to catch them all and it doesn't stop us from trying new laws.

What do you propose for Iran?

WMD my arse

The UN is fugging stupid and your clutching at straws using that argument.

The Yanks wouldn't have used the stuff in Vietnam... and the NZ govt wouldn't have allowed Dow Elanco's NZ subsidiary to supply  the two base chemicals of agent orange( 2,4,5-t & 2,4-d ) for use in Vietnam if the long term effects of it were known back then.

And it's not as though it wasn't used here and in other countries either, watermelon loads of it was used in agriculture and forestry right up until the late 1980s when 2,4,5-t was banned in NZ.

But you know what they say... "ignorance is no excuse" So I think NZ should be punished for it's crimes by being kicked out of the UN.

Then we could join something useful, like the Mickey Mouse Club.
