Just forwarding something I have read... To all those who like statistic.
About the juicy story I had told, well, I am just saying tat if US wanna conquer the world, this may be one of the scenario that could have happened. -
I want to point out 2 of the "questions".
It is easy to ask questions that will skew opinion.
It's like a question: "what is the percentage of terror groups who claim to be "Islamic?" will skew opinion.
Perhaps it is more pertinent to ask this question:
If Iraq has WMD, between the US and Iraq, who would be more willing to use them? Considering the last time nuke were used, it was in the middle of a World War almost 60 years ago.
The question is about NOW. Has the world forgotten Saddam used chems on women and children when they were asleep in their village? And where is the woman Dr. Germs?
Then, what MLK said... I have more to add... the moment we do not challenge those who would defend evil with liberal nonsense, evil has won.
Not to say that Dubbya went to this war with the best intentions, but this is something waiting to happen. Mayhap if Dubbya didn't do anything and Saddam gave a few vials of Plague to terrorists, the same people who wrote that liberal nonsense would be demanding why Dubbya didn't do anything.
Who knows?
Right now, just pray for the war to end quickly with the ouster of Saddam. And that the US do the right thing by helping rebuild the place without Cheney's cronies getting all the contracts.Originally posted by stupidissmart:Just forwarding something I have read... To all those who like statistic.
About the juicy story I had told, well, I am just saying tat if US wanna conquer the world, this may be one of the scenario that could have happened. -
Then the question is, Does Iraq has any weopons of mass destruction ? Up till now, no one gives us any concrete proof that he has it. If one doesn't have one, one can't use it. Please consider the last nuke is used by US.
And as I always say, they did used gas to kill 5000 people before. However that reason can only be used for a war, not 2 ! They used tat as an excuse to fight the war 10 years ago. BTW US killed 35000 people then. It killed 35000 people to revenge 5000 people. Is tat a good logic ? NOw u wanna kill 35000+++ for wat ?
US wants war to have the oil. Or he wants to do wat his father hasn't finished.Tat is it. Do u have any proof tat Saddam sent vials of plague to other countires ? If not, please don't assume.
If u find tat we r too soft with Saddam, then u r also suggesting tat the law is too soft to criminals too. The UN system works like legistrative system. The only problem to international law is there isn't any police to enforce international laws especially to bullies with powerful military might.
Why support US so much till doing things tat is unfair to Russia ? I support Russia to take back all the oil fields tat he had lost after the war. If US take them, tat means it really is going after the oil. -

For those who believe that the US is liberating Iraq, let me point some facts. They are hesitating to let the UN take a primary role in Iraq. Most likely is a self-interest or motive in the country. Tony Blair is agreeing with the rest of the European countries that the UN should take the role on the reconstruction of Iraq. Bush seems to think otherwise.
Bush has not had a valid justification for his war to this date. No WMD's have been found. Only unaccounted materials and chemical/biological agents. None of these show any evidence of intention of attacking the US or promoting terrorism.
His violent rule against his own people, such as gassing the Kurds for security of his regime of Iraq? I don't see the US complaining to China about the incident in Tien Mien square in China to defend the Chinese leadership.
To liberate Iraq from harsh dictatorship rule? I don't think USA will think twice about liberating countries such as Namibia from tyrants. -
the world will come to be ruled by 1 system, or 1 ruler. thats all i can say.. for 7 years

In Africa, the French are fighting many wars.. no one seems to want to do anything about them.
Talking about atrocity, in the papers, there was a massacre in Congo.
There are atrocities everywhere. Just because someone makes a stand on one of them, does not mean anything.. would you rather no one gives a sh1t about anything?
Dubbya will have some kind of vested interests.
But frankly, from an outsider looking in, I'd rather not have a Saddam... Just like I'd rather not have a deranged man in N Korea dabbling with nuclear reactors older and more unstable than the Chernobyl one.
If Dubbya throws out Saddam, or if the bunker-buster turned Saddam into a smear, the world suddenly becomes a safer place. And I don't think anyone can dispute that.Originally posted by Nighth4wk:For those who believe that the US is liberating Iraq, let me point some facts.

haha ok, there is two logic i see here. ppl who thinks saddam should be dead to make the world a safer place, and ppl who think saddam should be given a 2nd chance to make the world a more interesting place to live in. not to mention crazy ppl like unity who claims to like sars being out of control, would probably oso liked having saddam create new kinda virus to wipe out the whole world, to "weed out the weak" blah blah.

China is a different country now.. communism is dead..
If Saddam doesn't have WMD, then let this war be a reminder to those muslim radical fanatic that Allah is dead.. just like the god of shintoism, communism etc..
To deal with terrorism, you need to be more brutal than them..
Would you stand and pray for peace if someone walks into you country and blow away 2 iconic symbol of your countries ??

first of all, there is no god for communism. communism is a form of political leadership. you cannot say a god is dead, because you cannot prove it so, nor can you prove that the god is alive. china is still communist, but are flowing bit by bit into capitalism in economic sectors. if you deal with terrorism more brutal than themselves, how does that make you not a terrorist yourself?Originally posted by redtide:what's your problem actually ??

Well, coalition forces have gone in and liberated the people there ... or so it seems ...
At least the people there seem to be happy ... and rejoicing over their new found freedom ... hope they can get a better future in time to come ....
