djxeno Posted December 18 Report Share Posted December 18 Yeah. I mean, did you hear Ari Fletcher speak today. I mean, if they were all about consulting with thier allies and such, and really cared about the U.N. Security Council, why would they give most of thier allies and EDITED version of Saddam's report. Of course this is only if they cared what they thought, which they don't, as they had said repeatedly said that they would go without the U.N's support. Then why give them the report in the first place?....and an edited one for that matter....fishy fishy fishy...-XeNo- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brickhouse Posted December 19 Report Share Posted December 19 Like, duh!Anyway, all of this shit is a huge mistake. For the third time in the last 60 years (cold war, war on drugs, war on terrorism), we have an American president, in an effort to boost his popularity ratings, starting up a "war" that will just drain public funds and infringe on personal liberty while being entirely unwinnable. I understand Afghanistan. I even understand, a little bit, the crackdown on 'terrorist cells' within the US (I'll give them the benefit of the doubt and say they've all been real threats so far). However, there's just no connection here. Bush is picking a fight because Saddam threatened his daddy, and while the American public has seen so much 'evidence' of Saddam's wrongdoings, there's a reason why most of the rest of the world is still skeptical. If you're going to go after Saddam, at least do it because of his genocide against the Kurds, not on trumped up weapons charges that are obviously full of shit....
