Of course it wasn't MT.

Saddam had an epiphany and suddenly realized the error of his ways and decided to play nice.

the reason was to remove the dangerous madman (butcher of bagdad) from power and stabilize the middle east, and remember englishman, it was the english and french that started this whole mess after the first world war when they carved up the ottoman empire.

NOTE: for them what don't speak latin, "casus belli" means "cause for war"

Someday, I really hope these blind eyed liberals open their eyes. Until then, I will try to say a prayer for them.

This one cracked me up. I'm still chuckling.

Subsititute, 'Republicans' for 'democrats' and stick in 'conservatives' for 'liberals' and it's a bi-partisan manifesto.

Politicians are boobs. political hacks are boobs. Political Activists are boobs.

With all the saggy flap-jack boobs runnin around lately, I should be thinkin about gettin into in the political bra buisness.

Looks like a growth industry.

Saddam is a pile of subhuman slime.

But tell me again how our security was endangered by Iraq.

Oh please tell me again, Yank, how evil Britain created Iraq and therefore Saddam, and how the US in no way armed him, supported and nurtured him, unlike Britain who did all those things unilaterally. I really need that history lesson!

Also, you didn't mention WMDs in your little abstract. That seems to be a popular approach to matters these days...

the main reason given by benladen for 9-11 was the US troops in saudi arabia.(holy land)
the reason US troops were in saudi arabia was to protect the saudis from iraq.
::therefore:: remove the threat to the saudis and US troops can leave arabia.

Actually dude, it started with that Magna Carta thingy, didn't it. If youse british dudes would just have kept on stomping around your empire, instead of liberating all them folk all over the world, then none of us would be in this pickle today!

Gee Whiz Wally!:D

Just don't forget who supported Saddam and sold him WMD, which he used against iranians - which again got saddam in trouble with UN, but thanks to US, it didnt matter.

john9001 · « **Reply #53 on:** July 14, 2003, 10:22:10 AM »

the US never sold saddam WMD , what they gave him was a bio starter kit for medical research, he prob got the poison gas from some euro country, they are good with that stuff.

Fishu · « **Reply #54 on:** July 14, 2003, 10:35:55 AM »

Go back and read the transcript of the UN speech by Powell. Iraq war freakin swimming in anthrax and small pox and mustard gas and nuclear dirty bombs.... OUR security was in danger!

Was it????????

And you really, really feel safe now right?

How sad....

Some of you point to the US support for Saddam and Bin Laden and accurately, we did build these boys up. Was it wrong? Well, I'm not sure....I tend to think that policy in that part of the world is not as simple as black and white.

Still, even if it were wrong, is that a good reason to not right some of those wrongs, or should we just lay down and let them thrive, when it means the lives of innocents will be lost or WMD's will be used against us?

At what point do we do what's right?

What really pisses me off is that some of you don't have the balls to do whats right....if you were placed in an actual position of authority where your choices meant the life or death of innocent people, you'de wrap up like a fetus.

Just like Monday Morning QB's here in the US.....you guys have all the solutions.

You're guttless in my opinion....educated and well read, lacking the common sense to be effective.

The next year will tell alot....if Bush lied, Americans will deal with him....I personally don't think he lied, but I could surely be wrong on that account, which is more than many of you could admit....you're blinded by you own greatness...so well read and well spoken.

As for me, I need to stay out of these threads.....very few of you want an honest discussion....you're sold so hard on your hate and dislike of Bush or America or whatever the flavor of the day is, that you can't see honestly, anything else.

Any Arab nation with WMD is a potentially serious threat to me.

You Saddam Hussein supporters deserve whats coming.

Its all Roger Moore's fault. Had he not retired, he would've infiltrated the whole bit, killed the bad guys and woo'd a sexy MidEastern chick in true 007 style. Geez, I thought British intell was awesome. We know the secret weapons and gizmos are

Damn him!

_Schadenfreude_ · « **Reply #59 on:** July 14, 2003, 11:38:29 AM »

um British Intelligence has gone a bit downhill since Mr Moore's days, apparently when they were building their new MI6 building they found out that several of the electricians working on the building were members of the IRA (this might just been an urban legend but is too funny not to be true)

Also they went through a nasty phase of "agents" losing their laptops in wine bars, on trains and in the back of taxi's.......all jolly embarrassing and difficult to keep a stiff upper lip when everyone keeps pointing at you and laughing....

Bit of finger pointing between MI6 and Downing Street as who said what and when and who then went and told the BBC who then of course told the rest of us......
