^ I don't get people sometimes. Our f*cking brothers and sisters, fathers and mothers, etc, are over there risking their life for us and what do people do? they sit at home and whine and bitch about things. Be supportive of your country, even if you don't know why or understand why...

It's not a right to live in the best country in the WORLD... it's a privilage, be happy f*ckers.

Since when do you live in Canada?

Check this,
http://www.english-vancouver.com/canada-human-development/

you're third on the list. And following blindly... bad idea.

*edit, its either canada or norway. I'm getting conflicting info. But etiher way USA is 3rd or 6th.

[ShagginJet]

For the sixth year in a row, Canada ranks first among 175 countries in the United Nation's quality of life survey. The Human Development Index (HDI) examines the health, education and wealth of each nation's citizens by measuring:

^ Cry me a river..... Who cares about health, Education, and Wealth....?

When all the shit hits the fan, USA is #1. Maybe shiat's messed up here and there, but people aren't crossing the border and risking their lives just so they can live in Canada, they do this for the US.

Actually there was a time when that was the case... lets at a trip back to when the KKK ran the US.

Yup people left the US and feld to Canada.... now that you've got that under control its only actors that keep coming up here to shoot movies.

Relax dude you're not any less of a man because you country isnt number one... hell Canada might not be number one either. So dotn get your panties in a knot about it.

its sad if you have to bash canada to feel good dude, says alot about yuo.

[ShagginJet]

^ ROFL.... Read post in Major Tun-Offs.....

<---Works on taking panties out of a knot.

[Wren57]

Please do tell me when the KKK ran the US... I'd LOVE to know that. Perhaps you forget (or never knew) that the KKK was initially founded by Robert Bedford Forrest to be a policing and law enforcing organization. Once it deteriorated into a racist organization, Forrest quit as that was not his vision of the KKK. It was started with the best intentions but turned bad... like communism. ;) It also NEVER ran the US. Please, please please tell me when it did...

its almost like saying big buiness oil and coal never ran the US in the 1800's. sure techniqualy it didnt, but when members of the KKK are in control of many MANY of the southern political offices, influenced them, law enforcment agencys and many of the local stores, its basically like controling it. you could get away with murder as long as you had the KKK backing you. therse no direct proof with names cause it was a secret society.

[ChrisCantSkate]

Meanwhile, a U.S. convoy in Iraq found an artillery shell believed to have the makings of sarin -- a deadly nerve gas used in chemical weapons, the coalition said Monday.

A senior defense official said that a preliminary field test had been completed on the shell, which will undergo further testing. Field tests sometimes yield false positives.



now before you throw stuff in peoples faces calling it the truth, read the artical and dont form conclusions that arnt made.

sometimes i think its like talking to a wall with that kid. Never reads between the lines.

our leaders dont run the country, those who influence them do

[Wren57]

I never said the KKK didn't influence a large part of the south, I said it didn't run the US. Big difference... I know that sometimes it is the influencing parties that control policies, but sometimes it isn't. Saying that big money always controls government is just as ignorant as saying that it never does...

^ No you fool... It's cause he's Canadian... HAHAH!!! :bow:

[Wren57]

Oh yeah, I forgot how awesome Canada is, how foolish of me. They have such awesome healthcare, they MUST be better than the United States...

A little story... my entire family (including myself) were in Montreal about 10 months ago. My grandmother's arm got caught in an elevator, and because she has such thin sensitive skin, it ripped a large chunk off and she was bleeding profusely. The hotel called an ambulance. 45 minutes later, ambulance arrives and she goes to the local hospital. She sits in the waiting room for 4 hours, NEVER seeing a doctor or nurse or recieving any care from anyone. She has enough and leaves, deciding to wrap it in bandages and gauze and hope that works. The next day she gets a $310 ambulance bill from the hotel. So don't even start to tell me about healthcare...

[KwikR6]

Fuck guys..there's pro's and con's about each country.
Not one is better then the other!
They both rock!

[Kool-Aid]

Dang...so what ended up happening to your grandmother? I hope she's alright.

[mylittlecivic]

you'd be suprised who influences the government

[CD5Passion]

^ like the mafia back in the 50's? this country has it's past of being corrupt, whoever has the most money runs the country. the mob could get away with anything illegal parking to murder all they did was pay off a governor or two and a police force. of course every country has something ugly about it, shit happens

Wow, the snobbery of the Americans here is amazing. Ignorance is bliss fellas, enjoy it.

As for the chemical weapons or WMD, I could give about two fucks to tell you the truth. What I heard and what you read don't matter. I could never see the Bush family covering their collective ass by trying to sneak something by like this.

Hell, we found WMD? Are they the ones George Sr. gave to them? Or different ones?

[ShagginJet]

^ I'm just messing with the Canada stuff.

As far as the WMD, shiat. If I had my way I would have leveled the damn country and split it up equally between the surrounding countries. Simple and to the point.

I must also mention that I really enjoy your thread title. To all you hippies? Come on man. Anyone who has a different view than you is a hippie? Let it be man.

You all seem to "love" America judging by the contents of this thread. Well welcome to it people. Here I get to express whatever opinion I want. And though I think you are goddam Fascist for your name calling and childish attitude, I wouldn't make a thread trying to demean you for it.

rofl.. oh my.. the title was a lighthearted joke... get over it. As for Bush smuggling in these weapons.. stop being so paranoid and making up idiotic little conspiracy theories. They have always had them.. where do you think they went?? Do you REALLY think they destroyed them??? Please tell me you are not that dumb. Fine ..

Man...are you this thick? No paranoid conspiracy theories here son, just saying it wouldn't surprise. This ridiculous "American Royalty" that is the Bush family sickens and disgusts me.

Of course Iraq had WMD, George H. W. Bush GAVE THEM OUT LIKE CANDY IN THE 80'S. We needed "friends" ya see.

And as for the America and Canada thing. Man you are slow. I never said America sucks. That was you saying Canada sucks. All I did was point out that they are both fine places to live. I love America. But I love Canada too. From all the cool Canadian heads we got on this board it seems like a damn cool place to live.

Broad generalizations are your friend I see.

[V8killimports]

Please quote me where i said canada sucks.

Provide links where Bush gave out WMD. thanks.

Yes I know we gave dual use capabilities to Iraq, but he did not give it out like candy. Do you know WHY he gave them money/conventional and non conventional weps?

[ChrisCantSkate]

i love how you jumped to the conclusion that they have already found proof, if you actually read that artical it says they found a shell that supposably had the chems in it. now i know major details are important.

if this ends up being real... good. we might not look like the biggest douches in the universe after all. however people jumping to conclusions about partial proof on something is what got us fucked up in the first place. if we actually found wepaons of mass destruction in the first place then i would be on a completly different side of this argument, howver we jumped to conclusions one and it made us look like complete jackasses to the rest of the world, and now your doing the exact same thing. i was watching the various news channels i flip through when theres nothing else on and didnt once see anything about this. makes me kinda wonder why the media hasnt jumped on this "proof" of WMD presence in iraq. hell the artical just mentions it in the 4th paragraph (not checking it, dont quote me on where it is). for some reason this "proof" dosnt seem as solid as your building it up to be

once again, if this is true and there actually were weapons in iraq since the begining of this psuedo-war, then we are actually somewhat justified in diong what we did. but im not jumping to any conslusions till i see undenyable proof.

[V8killimports]

Actually we were justified regardless. Solpol is right about one thing. Iraq has been our mess since the iran iraq war. It should have been cleaned up long ago. You cannot expect to treat people the way saddam and his sons did, and not have the living shit bombed out of you.

As for proof.. whether it contained or contains sarin does it matter? No.. it did at one time, and that is a WMD.

Ok, maybe it wasn't you, but it was said. And you told me to go live in Canada if I love it so much. Hell, you told me to go back. Like I lived there or something.

Provide links where Bush gave out WMD? Where you been for the last 20 years?

Yeah, I know why we gave them out. And look what happens. That's why I subscribe to the George Washington/Alexander Hamilton theory. STAY OUT OF WORLD AFFAIRS. It's none of our business. Who the hell made us the world police organization. Oh, that's right, we did. Yeah, that's how it works.

Hell in the opening post the guy called them chemical weapons. Not WMD.

[Wren57]

Haha... there are many weapons that are much more dangerous than nukes...

[Racing Rice]

I think its funny.. The media only reports what they are informed. I couldnt even imagine the stuff that the military knows that no one else does for one reason or another. We are all just as blind as eachother.. The media is the biggest crock of shit you could find on a daily basis.

I dont think most civilians could even handle knowing half of the shit that the military knows. :no: Sometimes its just better that way.:rolleyes:

As for the troops fighting for this country I salute you, and I hope you all make it home sooner then later.

ok... this is getting to me, you want to have people listen to your arguments and have intelletucal debates speak to people as your equals. you get ALOT more across when you "inform" someone of their mistakes and point it out with proof then saying "stfu and color" (which was fucking funny, but besides the point) and the dumb as rocks comment above. what you do is find the link, artical whatever that disproves them, and present it in a somewhat civil manner. it really kills your credability when you attack the person and not the issue. your bringing up really valid points, but its just pure ignorance to resort to name calling when someone disagrees with a point of yours

Sorry I didn't realize that the entire world even the media is on the same page.. except you.

As for having an opinion, that's fine.. but you argue something that you apparently know nothing about if you don't know that chemical weps are WMD.

[Kool-Aid]

I think what he's trying to say is that you try to bash on the person and not the facts they present...at least that's what I had gathered from his post.

[nonovurbizniz]

just to throw some gas on the fire..

A. the Sarin mortor could kill as many as 20 people... wow... how many people can a mortor kill?
B. The other one found was an "improvised explosive devise"... ANYONE could have made that... before OR AFTER the war...
C. NONE of these constitute evidence of the presensce of LARGE amounts of WMD much less an organized gov. sanctioned ACTIVE PRODUCTION of ANY chemical weapons..
D. BUSH NEVER SWORE THERE WERE NUKES... I HATE bush... but he DID NOT swear there were nukes there... what he said was that the was "english intelligence" that he had bought uranium or whatever from an african nation and "aluminum tubes" which COULD be used for a centerfuge to further refine said uranium.

This is NOT a "I told you so" moment..

If it were bush would be dousing himself in budwieser screaming YAHOOOOOO I WAS RIGHT... SEE SEE...

They are playing down to be what it is... 2 VERY insignificant weapons that are not evidence of ANYTHING substantial...


Unless they find a STOCKPILE of those mortors... or directions on how to make the "improvised explosive devise" issued BY THE GOVERNMENT... then it's evidence of nothing...

My buddy's neighbor (who we hang out with ALL the time) is probobly on his way over there in not too long...

I'd like the war to over as simply and quickly as possible for EVERYONE over there... our troops and the iraqi people alike.

[V8killimports]

Chemical weapons are WMD.. they are unconventional weapons. If they found stockpiles you would not admit the fact either.. you never will..

As for your buddies neighbor?? where the hell did that come from? I leave in a week and this will be my 4th rotation with a total of 18 months in the desert. So gimme a fucking cookie.

[Kool-Aid]

I didn't know you were in the desert...are you?

[GT40FIED]

Ok...so I stopped reading this thread somewhere in the 3rd page because it got so childish...but here's my take. First of all, the shell they found was rather small and they're not even sure if it did, in fact, contain sarin gas. In my book that doesn't qualify as a weapon of MASS destruction. Perhaps mediocre distruction. I have no doubt in my mind that even if the ordinance they found doesn't have sarin, they'll say it does...or that the tests are inaccurate or some horseshit like that. Secondly, everyone involved has said that the shell was quite old. I have no doubts that Iraq has engineered such weapons in the past...but so have we as well as dozens of other countries and we've shown just as much of a lack of control when it comes to uses of force as any dictatorial regime. The entire basis for our invasion was that weapons were STILL being made. Now...show me evidence of that and we'll call it a day. I don't see the big deal about WMDs in the first place...the U.S. has what I'm sure is the largest stockpile of nuclear (or in Bushspeak: "nucular") weapons in the world and we've proved that we're completely irresponsible. Instead of imposing our will on other nations perhaps we should focus on the massive domestic problems we've got.

As for anyone moronic enough to think the KKK EVER ran the US (from a few pages back), please go read a history book. Yes, they had influence, they even had many people in elected office. But that's the nice thing about elected office...EVERYONE gets to vote. Klansmen alone voting wouldn't put a man into office so surely other people were voting. And just because it's called the Invisible Empire don't for a second think these backwoods retards are a "secret society". Most of them will gladly boast about what they do. So no, they've never had any direct influence on how this country was run hence they never ran the country. You want someone to blame? Blame your grandparents and great grandparents for allowing such things to take place. After all, this is a democracy...you don't like how things are going, change them.

No the invasion was because Iraq was supposed to destroy their WMD, and obviously they didn't did they? Be it 1, 100, 100,000.. they are all WMD.

But it will never end.. whatever they find you will always have people saying.. "well that's all and good but show me this and I'll believe you".

how about this?

[Kool-Aid]

Where will you be going to? Or do you not know?

[V8killimports]

Yea but cannot say this time.

[nonovurbizniz]

20 people isn't mass destruction...

A weapong of MASS destruction would indicate there would be "massive" damage...

No mortor or barrel of old mustard gas with a grenade on it is going to cause MASS damage.

If it were such a victory for his B.S. story about WMD he'd be shouting it from the roof top with his arrogant snide half cocked smile in full blast... he's not because it's not.

I mean for christ sake at this point I think HE'D be suprised if we even found EVIDENCE of a WMD program... much less a stockpile or nuclear material like he implied.

Colin Powell was reported to have said "I'm not going to read this CRAP!" about what he was handed to read to the U.N....

If that doesn't say they knew it was B.S. from the begining then how about the fact that it was ALL so PERFECTLY worded so as he wouldn't be held responsible for lying...

british intelligence tells us that Iraq meant to obtain Uranium from Niger...

REALLY???? and exactly what did OUR intelligence have to say about this report... OHHHH that it was INCORRECT AND TOTALLY UNFOUNDED... but it's still worth mentioning to the nation... RIGHHHT.

Aluminum tubes... I've got frigging aluminum tubes... Even then when they got pressed on the details as to HOW that was incriminating evidence they stated that they were CLOSE to the size they would need to be to be used as part of a centerfuge...

I said right when he spouted all that crap... Just say your daddy F'd up and you're going to fix it... I'd follow that...

not some 2 faced, lying monkey, son of a pussy who couldn't finish the job to begin with... Don't want any bad P.R. going into an election.

If they find ANY CLEAR evidence of WMD in Iraq that were GOV. SANCTIONED... I will admit I'm wrong till I'm blue in the face...

But why would bush WANT that... why not just say, there may or may not be WMD... with or without this guy is a threat to stability of not only his own nation but the world...

NO ONE could argue with that... but making up reasons and trying to make links that aren't there... and even IF they were... are CERTAINLY not HALF as bad as they are in other places...

Iran HAS Nuclear power... Pakistan HAS NUKES... N Korea and China are run by people JUST as nuts as Saddam if not more so...

If the U.S. had stopped with Afghanastan and pressed other SERIOUSLY threatening nations we'd be in a LOT better standing right now...

Also if we started taking the Palistinian's problems into account a LOT more seriously and put SERIOUS pressure on Isreal to grow the F up then we'd be in IMPECABLE standing with not just most nations but TONS of muslim nations that are either riding the fence or just hate us... don't wish us dead... but hate us.

We need to stop being such loud mouth hypocrites... You can't say that it's important to you to "deliver freedom" to the Iraqi people when you won't even acknowledge a TRUELY oppressed Country like Palistine is being Ass raped by a Gov which we ACTIVELY AND HEAVILY support... Who's going to believe you...

If you're going to be a loud arrogant american... at least be honest about it.

[V8killimports]

First off ANY chemical or biological weapon is classified as a WMD. End of story.

The rest of your shit is just a rant, and from what I gather you are one of those people who had "difficulty" with the ballot in FL and are still upset that that abomination gore lost.

Lastly.. you want israel to grow up??? Open your eyes and figure out what is going on in that region. The palestinians keep bombing israelies and you want THEM to grow up?

omfg again... palestine being assraped?? Do you even know what happened there and why palestine is so pissed off? A number of arab countries didn't like israel.. they tried to kick israel in the nuts. Israel blocked and kicked them in the nuts, and in addition occupy some of their territory. Lesson learned.

Actually...ummm....I do. In 1947 a bunch of EUROPEAN nations got together and formed Israel as a nation as sort of an apology to jews for the holocaust. Jews had always thought of this land as their birthright and nobody cared that palestinians lived there as well and had for thousands of years, also thinking the land was their homeland. See...modern day Israel is the birthplace of the three biggest religions: judaism, christianity, and islam. It contains some of the holiest cities to these people so saying it belongs to one and not the other is just plain wrong. As for palestinians getting the shaft, I completely agree. We fund tons of money through Israel and basically give palestinians the finger. Why? Plain and terrible truth...there are more jewish voters in the US than muslim. Nobody there is right...they're all wrong. They're destroying each other over rocks and sand. I know, I know, they think it's their rightful homeland but when it's all said and done it's just a grubby little piece of desert. If they wanna fight, by all means...natural selection will rule and the stupid will die first (the stupid being the ones who'll fight over a piece of land nobody else wanted). I just despise the fact that we give one of them money and call them right and ignore the other one. Just because we give them money does not give Israel the high ground. It has partaken in it's share of stupid shit too. Then Bush came out a while back and told Israel to slow down. WTF?! Stop giving them money dickweed. At least make it a level playing field.

As for the original topic...yes...I'd totally be willing to do a 180 if we did find new WMDs that were clearly government sponsored and say I was wrong. But hell...if a Chinese cult can manufacture massive amounts of sarin gas and bomb a subway, I'm sure some terrorist asshole has the formula too. But we all know this won't be the case. We didn't go there to attack individual terrorist cells...we went in to get Saddam out. We could've done it like Afghanistan...swift and relatively clean. But alas...no. You guys should watch "The Fog Of War". It draws some startling similarities to Iraq and Vietnam. All that said, even if we do find government sponsored WMDs, it won't change my opinion on the war. Like I said, we've got more insane nuclear warheads than anyone and we've already shown a complete lack of control as to where and how we use force. Why hasn't someone come to bomb our asses yet? Oh...that's right...because we've got a rogue dictator who has a huge cache of nuclear fucking weapons.

[biker's back]

Honestly people, all this talk about this issue is a waste of time. What's happening in Iraq needs to be done.

If you dont support your presedent you're telling me you believe an iraqie terrorist more then the leader of the free world.

As V8 said, STFU hippies.

Photos you just dont see..

http://rock103.com/warpics/index_2.html

Frankly I wish my country was involved with this, it sucks that we arent but there is good reason to be there.


As for Israel - dont worry they can take care of themselves. They went against a much larger military in the 7 day war and walked away the victors. The reason your presedent stands beside them is because your country is a christian nation. They will always stand behind Israel and not a terrorist breading country. Who gives a shit if Palistine is getting the shaft? The world would be a better place if they were next after Iraq.

sum it up: STFU and be thankful you arent going over there.

Now that it's started it does... it CERTAINLY did not "need" to be done before we invaded... if you think it did you have the threat-assesment ability of a rock.

Seriosly... explain to me how Iraq was more of a direct threat than ANY other muslim nation... It's THE most westernized culturally and governmentally. It's the LEAST fundamentalist. It's government was MORE despised than ANY other. It's citizens HAD (yeah that's right past tense) a better opinion of americans and western culture than ANY other. AND on top of it all even if there were "iraqi terrorists" most of them would have been scared to operate in country because NO ONE in Iraq beside Saddam had ANY true idea of what the relationship was between Saddam and the U.S...

We backed him in the Iran Iraq war... we didn't topple him in the gulf war... NO ONE in that country felt confident in the U.S.'s public statements on their relationship with Saddam.


If you dont support your presedent you're telling me you believe an iraqie terrorist more then the leader of the free world.

That is the single most ignorant statement I've ever heard... Who was Saddam Hussein??? THE IRAQI PRESIDENT So I guess ALL the Iraqi's who died when america pulled their support for a revolt during the 1st Gulf war we dumb hippies who deserved to die huh?

As V8 said, STFU hippies.

STFU canadian

Photos you just dont see..

http://rock103.com/warpics/index_2.html

If you need pictures to illustrate the horrors of war then you're just as retarded as you sound...

Frankly I wish my country was involved with this, it sucks that we arent but there is good reason to be there.

Frankly I wish your country was involved too... there is CERTAINLY good reason to be there now... Iraq could go from the lowest threat, least fundamental muslim nation to the biggest threat and MOST fundamental in NO TIME without EVERYONE concerned making sure it doesn't end up that way.

As for Israel - dont worry they can take care of themselves. They went against a much larger military in the 7 day war and walked away the victors. The reason your presedent stands beside them is because your country is a christian nation. They will always stand behind Israel and not a terrorist breading country. Who gives a shit if Palistine is getting the shaft? The world would be a better place if they were next after Iraq.

As long as they have the U.S.'s Weapons and funding... no they don't have anything to worry about... other than desicrating their OWN holy land with constant murder and oppression... the 7-day war was b.s. the Palestinians and egyptians were all basically drunk and happy because england told them they were ending emperialism... then when they were good and relaxed the "israeli's" attacked the shit out of them with OUR weapons... can't imagine how they won.

The REASON palistine is a "terrorist breading country" is BECAUSE we blindly stand beside Israel.

I GIVE A SHIT THAT THE PALISTINIANS ARE GETTING THE SHAFT

sum it up: STFU and be thankful you arent going over there.



Isreal exists ONLY because niether America OR England would accept all the displaced jews from WWII... PERIOD...

We gave the "Kikes" the "sandniggers" land and didn't think twice about it...

Well look were it got us.

"why do they hate us?"

Such a difficult question right Newsweek?


*edit*

And my vote for Gore was the same as my vote for kerry will be... ANYONE but bush...

I would've voted McCain if he went against gore.

However I will admit being utterly sickened by Florida... I stayed awake to hear the results... CNN called gore the winner early... then took it back... I was just about destroyed... I SINCERELY believe that GWB will bring about the end of the world... Hell he even believes it.

Ohh.. it makes sense now.. you are one of those fanatics that picket on the street with the end of the world sign?

And where did GWB say he was going to end the world?

And kikes and sandniggers was out of your mouth not mine. The vote for anybody but bush is just the most idiotic thing I have heard of.. If you don't like bush, fine.. tell you the truth I am pretty iffy on him as well.. But Kerry??!! Jesus I rather not have a president for 4 years than that idiot. He is for and against everything.

Wow...once again, Canada has shown us the way. It's that sort of backward ass thinking that reminds me that Canada was french property for such a long time. No, we don't need to be there. Saddam's gone and anyone who thinks our being over there is doing more good than bad to OUR country (not your country or their country) is sorely mistaken. Why just today we launched missles at a WEDDING PARTY. "Hey...see that gal in the gown and all of those dressed up folks? They look like hostiles to me!". I honestly don't care what our lame ass excuse is...if we weren't there now there'd be a lot more people alive. And your "if you don't support your president then you support terrorism" is total and utter bullshit. I can't even begin to fathom the mind boggling stupidity it would take to make such a remark. People here tried that blind patriotism horseshit a while back and quickly got shut the fuck up. This is not a "either you're with us or your against us" mentality. But then again I don't suppose canadians know a whole lot about civil disobedience. Remember, WE actually fought the biggest empire in the world for the freedom to say and do as we like. I'm absolutely 100% against the president but I'm not a terrorist asshole either. I don't agree with his approach to the war on errorism (that's not a typo). So Iraq has hardbored terrorist cells. News flash: SO HAS 99% OF THE MIDDLE EAST. Why not bomb Syria or Lebanon or Iran or maybe give another pass at Serbia? All countries that probably pose more of a threat to us than Iraq. But perhaps I'm getting ahead of myself...we'll get around to bombing the fuck out of those countries when we've got time. Or how about S. Korea? Or large pockets of muslim militants in the Phillipenes? Surely they're more worthy of out attention that a country we've already bent over and done dry.

Another news flash genius...America is NOT a christian country. Yes, most members of organized religion may be christian...but I'd put money down that there's just as many jews, muslims, buddhists, athiests, and agnostics to shut christians the fuck up. And Israel's not a terrorist state? Wow...well...I guess you could be confused by their tanks and helicopters, but they use those tanks and gunships to fire into crowds of people just protesting. And if you feel threatened enough sitting in a tank with a .50 caliber machine gun while people are throwing stones at you that you need to open fire into those people aimlessly then yes, you are a terrorist asshole. Palestinians attacks Israel, Israel shoots back. Israel attacks Palestinians, Palestinians shoot back. No one is right and if Israel were the bigger person (which it clearly isn't), it would try to call a truce.

Oh...lastly, please don't try to show us a bunch of pictures like nobody knows what goes on in Iraq. Yeah...I don't see it first hand but I've got a damn good idea. A very close friend of mine is shipping out soon to do recon as a cavalry scout and I'm scared shitless he won't be coming back. But no war = no gruesome deaths and no one in harms way. Just once I'd love someone to prove to me beyond a shadow of a doubt that Saddam was a DIRECT threat to us in the first place. Sure, he hated us, but so does 2/3 of the world.

[SolPol]

Saddam? Direct threat? Yeah right. No chance.

Steve, I'll assume you meant North Korea not South.

Good post by the way man.

[SolPol]

Oh, and for V8 up there:

Prudence, indeed, will dictate that governments long established, should not be changed for light and transient causes; and, accordingly, all experience [has] shown that mankind are more disposed to suffer while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But, when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object, evinces a design to reduce [the people] under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security."

Not mine. Thomas Jefferson's. But what did he know right?

I think V8 needs to drink some V8. Because he is a little off ;)

[Kool-Aid]

So, how many of you guys think we shouldn't even be over here? And why?

Yeah...my bad...I was a little drunk when I wrote that (as per usual). And thanks BTW.

Kool-Aid...right here. I think our presence there goes only to insult the Iraqi people and to undermine their own responsibilities as a polity to determine their own destinies. Like SolPol's quote of Jefferson says (a summary, at least) it's the responsibility of the citizens of a given nation to decide their own goverment. I can't count how many times I've said that here. It's not our job to change their government for them any less than the opposite would be true. The first time we were there at least we had an excuse...we came in AFTER they invaded Kuwait. How good that excuse is can be debated, but at least we were sort of on a goodwill mission. The bottom line? It's extremely unethical to force our will upon another country half way across the globe when they are just as capable of effecting such change themselves if they wanted it bad enough. Nevertheless we're willing to throw our own men and women into harm's way and hypocritically shake our heads when they make the ultimate sacrifice. By that I don't mean that they deserved to die or that anyone should be happy in such a situation, but if you support a war you better be willing to accept death as part of it. If you're sick of seeing your friends and neighbors or even strangers come home in coffins then maybe it's time to re-examine your stance on this or any war. War isn't about who's right...it's about who's left.

[Kool-Aid]

Why do you think it's to change their government?

[SolPol]

It is to change their government. Saddam was the government and we didn't like him. Get rid of Saddam and install a "friendly" regime.

War isn't about who's right...it's about who's left. Good shit man, I like that.

V8,

I'm in La La land because I have a moral/ethical objection to our country imposing it's will onto another? :rolleyes:

Bush is Satan. To me anyway. Maybe I don't express it as well as some others, but I think this whole "war" is freakin' ridiculous.

[V8killimports]

If someone/something poses a signifigant threat then remove the threat. The fact you don't think saddam was not a threat at all is very sad.

[SolPol]

He could NEVER have touched this country and you know it man.

He posed zero threat to the U.S. The fact that you think he was because the lying ass administration told you so is what's really sad.

You don't know what goes on, and try to bullshit your way through a conversation. I studied things like this for my thesis and major in college. He was connected through terrorist groups and had been for years. He did not need an ICBM that could reach the U.S. All he needed was to develop the agent and give it to any extremist group that hates the U.S. (which isn't hard to find), and he could stike at the U.S. through terrorist cells, and deny the entire thing. Do some reading and research as opposed to getting all your info from maxim. I studied weapons proliferation for almost 3 years so do not bs be thanks.

its impossible to make a sensable argument in this thread anymore. its gone way too far right and left wing. im in the middle, have different feelings about each little issue, however if i go one way im the tree hugging hippe, but if i go the other way im the brainwashed patriot. fuck this thread in its stupid ass

I don't think, personally, that Saddam had a direct threat to us but even catching him, it's still not going to be over. I don't think his capture was the "ultimate war ender".There are still American haters out there who still wants to kill us and are probably thinking of ways to do so...

Thank you for teaching me the error of my ways.

What would I do without you?
