BlameThePixel!

back in the old days, they also used to cut open veins to cure ppl for all diseases
I presume you want to revive these old wisdoms as well?

I think it is YOU who missed the point

no, we are not pacifists
SH *should* know his place and should treat his ppl like a true government would (something not yet seen in the world, but that's a different matter)

but apparently your mind is focused on the direct results; Saddam's power is gone and the US gets his precious oil
but then there's something they even made up a new word for.... aftermath: (to return to the playground setting) all the little kiddies find out that the US is a big bully, so all the little middle-east-kiddies who feel threatened team up against the bully
and because they realise a full frontal attack won't help, they'll use all sorts of tricks! they'll gets the ants to attack the bully!
and because the bully has been suspicious all year, the teacher (UN) will stop believing the bully, the middle-east-kiddies will act like they're wrongly accused, so the others will join their side!
conclusion: it's the US versus the world

this is of course but one possible outcome, but still...
the other one is probably the middle east vs the US, which is still not a pleasant outcome

get rid of one enemy and more will emerge and they will not attack army vs army.... they will send suicide commandos till you drown in them

anyways, I hope Bush will stop being so short sighted soon...

readme i wish it were otherwise but it isn't. and it has to end. i mean it really HAS to end. if we start bombing each other creating a hell of a lot of pollution then others join in and lob a few nukes, now that we have them its obvious we're going to use them. and when we use them everybody dies. humans are, in a way, doomed. we dont evolve nemore, we change the enviroment around us to our needs, and what happens when we can't anymore? its to polluted and all the oil runs out? WE'RE DOOMED! and the US is bringing that doomsday a lot sooner than a lot of ppl would like. i have one piece of advice for u readme. turn off CNN.

and i happen not to be a "human sheild" I just am saying that going to war with iraq is very wrong, and our argument is definately a lot more strong than urs

but think of the children... in Iraq they live in constant fear of torture and death, anything they dare say may lead to punishment. Nobody should know what is best for Iraqis more than Iraqis do, if only they could safely speak freely they would surely all want Saddam taken down, and he will not be taken without a war....

and by the time that happens, they will ASK the US for help in which we have no choice but to aid them in their need
as long as this won't happen in Iraq, then yes, war could overthrow Saddam, but there would be a new dictator to fill his spot, not much better and perhaps worse

i agree with darkone.

It must have been Bush himself who voted "invade Iraq".
