 Well, people like you want to believe that there are no crimes in the world. It seems reasonable to deal with the problem now, than waiting for it to be worse later. That makes me a bad person?? No. I don't think the way you do. While you're hiding in a corner, hoping that everyone hold hands... I want to get rid of a problem before it becomes much worse than now.


World peace is impossible. There will always be conflicts. But conflicts usually have a purpose the people believe in. These actions have none except lining political pockets with $$$.

I'm not against war. If the troops want ot just kill each other, fine. All I ask is that they don't take 600,000 innocent civilians with them.

Of course given current military practice is raining tactical warheads on an antire city for 48 hours straight instead of a ground assault on two targets, that's impossible.

You know why America fights like that? Because America is arrogant. That is a loud and clear message that says, "The lives of American troops are more important and the lives of innocent civilians."

I can't agree with that. If I ever met anyone who could, I would probably use their head as a platform next time I feel like breaking bricks.

 Even your Government's own intelligence agencies predict that attacking Iraq will increase the terrorist threat because by a great many people, the war perceived as unjustified. As soon as the war was officially announced the alert status in your country was raised to its second highest level. Why do you think that is?[/b]
		

		

	







This happens anytime there is war on any country.  Just like France, Russia, Germany, etc alerted it's citizens to leave the country or be vigilant in your surrounding. What's the big deal?

 US does not have UN backing - the reverse of the situation with the Afganistan war because the US has convinced no one that there is a real reason to attack now. The legality of this conflict is questionable. Bush's motives and eventual goal(s) remain unclear. Why not withdraw troops, wait for the inspectors to be booted from the country again and then attack?
		

		

	





Iraq has had 12 years to disarm.  Enough is enough.  Diplomacy has been exhausted.  The United States does not need the backing of the UN Security Council when it's security is at stake.  If the Security Council does not want to enforce Resolution 1441, then they should be irrelevant.  Oh, do you know why France threatens to veto any resolution on Iraq??  Because they, just like Russia have interest/special relations with Iraq.
