    There is no conspiracy here. Read your history buddy. In fact, we sold Iraq the helicopters used to drop the gas on the Kurds, and while the Senate voted and approved a bill that would have cut off from Iraq U.S. loans, military and non-military assistance, credits, credit guarantees, items subject to export controls, and U.S. imports of Iraqi oil, it was killed by the Reagan administration.

    I urge you to visit this site which heavily documents all US dealings with Iraq from 1980 to 1990: http://www.casi.org.uk/info/usdocs/usiraq80s90s.html

    While you're at it, read this one: http://www.commondreams.org/views02/0802-01.htm

    Maybe you'll learn something.
    Lol. It's our fault becuase we SOLD Iraq military equipment. Lol that's weaker
    than the connections the 9/11 commission found between Osama and Saddam. However, I do agree we are
    partially responsible for Saddam's power and since we caused the problem
    we are responsible for fixing it. We tried to fix it in GWI and Clinton pretended
    like he cared when Iraq dodged U.N. inspectors.

    BTW anybody wanna get some data on how many people were suffering
    becuase of U.N. sanctions. Funny thing is, those sanctions never hurt Saddam.
    At least this rumble in the desert did.

    that is the obvious answer to say that they should use special forces.. it is a really nice thought that i'm sure the american government has tried.. but the reality is that these people are very loyal to their leaders and won't tell.. so how do u get info. out of them.. you can't you have to take over and plant CIA seeds into the arab nation.. through afghanistan and now iraq will be a good home base to invade all the other countries around it..

    It's so ridiculous when you right-wingers constantly quote the "he gassed his own people" argument. Back when he did gas his own people, he was our ally, and he had our full support.
    Say what you want man...doesn't change the fact.

    I couldn't agree with this more. All of this "This is unlike any war we've fought before" talk and they're still using tanks and airstrikes. When I first had thoughts on how this war was going to play out I envisioned a totally Spiecal Ops, Splinter Cell kinda war. I agree that the so-called "collateral damage" is completely unacceptable, and I figured this kind of war would have been employed to minimize this very thing. But it hasn't, and I'm not going to let that sway my opinion on the war.

    Uh...Um...there's some spoken war going on here. Whaddever.

    How many terrorists were in Iraq before the 'Liberation'? I bet it wasn't 100.000. So I think killing so may many people to get such a small group of people is a bit overreacted, not? 'Collateral Damage' My Ass.

    Terrorists hide amongst the people, finding them and getting rid of them is a dirty job that takes a lot of time, I know. But go ask all the dead people if they think it was worth the sacrifice. I think even their skeletal remains will give you the finger for an answer.

    Fighting terrorism is a job for Intelligence bureaus and special forces that can operate on a small scale and take out single targets. With them you don't need to throw the apple away to get rid of the rotten spots: you can scoop them out.

    Yeah..and Saddam kidnapping, torturing and gassing his own people had nothing to do with right??? Just an innocent victim of the big, bad, war crazy USA right??? STFU!!! If we didn't go over there and something major happened all you fucks would be saying "Why didn't the USA stop him" or "Look at the USA living in there big houses and driving their fast cars, while the Iraqis suffer. How could they do nothing" or "How could the US not help when he is killing his own people???"

    Damned if you do, damned if you don't. You get used to it after awhile.

I wish for peace as well but you have to understand is if they had a nuclear weapon they would use it in a heart beat.. we have them and they tempt us to use them but for some reason we don't.. When they would be completely justified if they did..just to show DON"T FUCK WITH US!!! If they fuck with Russia watch what happens.. Russia doesn't care and they know that.. that's why they don't mess with Russia.. Russia in the next little while will drive right over Chechnya.. they were going to do it a while ago but the USA stopped themm.. USA won't stop them now.. Bye Chechnya...
    You hav absolutely no fucking clue what is going on in Russia...the Chechens have been the subject of some of the most heinous human rights violations for years....Putin, former KGB, extreme nationalist, is a fucking murderer....please read these two books

    Age of Delerium - David Satter

    Black Earth - Andrew Meier

    they will help elucidate what is and has been going on over there...i promise you what you see in the media is only the very tip of the iceberg

    the Chechens are wrong for being terrorists...but you have to undertand what the hell they have been through to know how to resolve the problem

    Putin will stop at nothing to show the world that Russia will maintain authority over all its various tribes/ethnicities...and that is only going to continue strife, much like it will continue in Palestine/Israel

    Yeltsin couldnt do it because the military was so underfunded and weak after the coup....but Putin has the mafia on his side...the black market...the control over most of the districts in Russia (parliamentary control)

    the Chechens have been the subject of terror long before they started getting into Islamic extremism, (Wahabism)

    please learn more before you trust the media...you are so brainwashed

    careful what you say...Putin and Bush are very much like

    wake up...say something rational...everything you just said was pitiful

    i feel sorry for you...and i resent having you as a member of this species...it will take a long time to snuff out the truth and change the minds of complete imbiciles such as yourself

    you actually believe Dick Cheney's rhetoric about Iraq harboring terrorists??
