After the 1809 war against Russia (when Sweden lost Finland), the (completely incapable) King was de-throned, and the parliament was debating over who should be elected new king. The eyes fell upon Bernadotte because he was a brilliant general in the French army. So the Parliament asked him if he wanted to be king of Sweden, and restore the nations borders. In other words, he was chosen because he was a great military leader, and he was chosen because it was believed that he would be the one to restore Swedens borders.

So what happened? He quickly surrendered to the Russians...

Damn french idiots.


And the french are idiots? lmfao

The most evil country is China; why isn't the US prosecuting war against them?

Well, Im not sure how to reply to this one actually. If you do a search on these boards on my username and/or the keywords "warcrimes" or "international law", you will find that I have posted plenty on the subject.

Let me just avoid a tricky question and just say that I think the US has the right to self defence (preemptive or not) against Iraq.

Maybe you should look up the word "preemptive".

Anyway, it can be argued that since Iraq is supporting terrorist organizations they are in fact engaged in such activities that would justify a self defence attack.

OR it can be argued that the inability on the behalf of Iraq to follow conventions on chemical and bactereological warfare poses such a threat to the US as to motivate a self defence attack.

Take your pick.

Hort, in this way ANY preemptive attack can be justified.

(with bubba voice): "Hey, I am gonna attack them, they have an Army, and I bet they are THINKING to attack us, even Nostradamus wrote it !!"

Maybe it's time for GWB to hire some Oracle?

Congratulations Naso, you have just understood the fundamentals of international law.

Basically the big countries (US, USSR, China) get to do whatever they want and ignore international law as they please. While the small countries find out that international law is a great excuse for the big countries to declare war on them, should the need ever arise.

BTW, did you noticed that a lot of people opposing or having doubt about a war are from nations that know what really mean to have a war fought on their land?

Have memory of the slaughter of innocents?

And the survival of the guilty ones? (with the exception, in some cases, of the big bosses)

There is people down there in your bomb sight, people on the other side of your guns, and the big, bad ones will be hiding in full confort refuges, while the normal, inocent people will die.

At the end, when Saddam will be gone, WHO you think will have the bless of our great, right nations?

The man of the next door?

Naa, the second row mr. S.O.B., ready to jump in the winner chariot.

Dirty.
