Anthony, I am aware of the things saddam did however this war wasn't about saddam in the first place. This war was because saddam 'could attack with chemical weapons within 30 minutes'... yeah, right, was it just me or did the whole world miss something there?

Styl-X Design wonders how long it will take until someone starts to defend bush with "just because he talks slow dasn't mean he is stupid"

Even Clinton can be quoted as stating that Saddam has/had WMD's. With their underground background, there can be things buried in Iraq that won't be unearthed until the Second Coming.

But a simple question:

Did they find weapons of mass destruction in Iraq?

I don’t wish to be offensive styl, if I was I apologize.

From What I understand about Versailles, the big four came to that conclusion that Germany was responsible for WWI and Germany signed off on it. They agreed to accept “war guilt” for the entire war and agreed to pay compensation. The Germans lost the war big time, and they were in no position to bargain. The big four was really the big two. Italy and the US really didn’t do much. Woodrow Wilson was not a major player the whole thing was for the most part, arranged by Britain and France, who both collectively beat the heck out of Germany, especially after the British developed an armored vehicle.

The British tank was the breakthrough in the bloody stalemate of trench warfare it plowed through the German ranks crushing everything in its wake. And even though the Germans were successful on their eastern front, they lost it all on the Western front. After Bismarck’s three Prussian wars, and after the Kaiser issued a blank check giving authority to Austria to attack Serbia, the major European powers were fed up. They blamed German militarism for the bloody conflicts. The Kaiser made a mistake in that he didn’t predict Russia coming to protect their Slavic brothers. An avalanche of wider war followed the Austrian attack on Serbia, in which Germany would later take the blame.

What emerged from WWI was a lot of young future generals with a lot of war experience, which would later set the stage for the creation of a fearsome military, the Wehrmacht (armed forces). That model of German militarism set the standard for every nation’s army to this very day.

I had many reasons why I approved of the Iraq war, not just WMD. And stocks of weapons may still exist, Zarqawi and Batthist Generals still exist, why not WMD? The one Sarin shell they did find was capable of killing hundreds of people, there is probably more of it. Saddam has funded enemies of America and Israel.

An unlikely ally to President Bush has just bolstered the evidence on the threat Saddam posed. Russian president Vladimir Putin said that Russia knew Saddam Hussein had planned terror attacks on U.S. soil and had warned Washington. Putin said Russian intelligence had been told on several occasions that “Saddam's Special Forces were preparing to attack U.S. targets inside and outside the United States.” The only open ended question is this, who exactly was Saddams “special forces.”

i bailed on it so i wouldn't have to hate you later

Ahh, hehe, how thoughtful of you =D

i attack the arguement as assanine not you personally

Well, if you had bothered to check the facts you would see that
everything is quite true, even if it makes you mad at me for telling
about it.

Also, since people started to bring up similarities with
WWII Germany and now, this article about the aniversary
shows that the similarities are even greater.

Sometimes it seems that history repeats itself.

Well, if you had bothered to check the facts you would see thateverything is quite true

well, let me clarify.. i can't dispute posted articles from factual sources.. my problem with them as evidence is that they are isolated incidents, with the narrowmindedness of a few. like i said before, their way of thinking was not consistent with the rest of the government or even the american people.. and thankfully, such plans have not gone into motion. not that i am saying i trust certain people in control right now, that they would never conspire to conceal the truth or do things secretly- i believe they've definitly had their own wicked way with planning, and certain information. but this does not mean the entire government is defacto.. this is why we have so many layers of government.. the house of representatives, the senate (each of which are broken down into several governing commitees), then the joint cheifs and finally the president. mixed around in there you have the FBI, CIA, and private companies. a plan like the one to spur war with cuba couldn't make it through that gauntlet of review.. therefore if it was carried out in secret, you can't say it was done with consent of the american people.. and when the media would find out about it, well there would be hell to pay. the fact that it is posted publically for you to access online shows the sincerity they TRY to uphold. they could have very easily just hidden the information so people would never know about it in this historical sense.

This is cool

Difference between Bill Clinton and George Bush is, Clinton left the White House after 8 years as President

Well it kind of plays into two different areas.

1. Religious Zealots claiming they do what they do for God and his chosen People.

2. beHeading *is* the main manner in which they perform death penalty in that region.

We in the USA use Gas, Lethal Injection, Firing Squad, Electric Chair and Hanging. Though many places are leaning over to Gas or Lethal Inject because it is more humane which is a sick joke if you ask me. Dead is dead and the means in which you get dead really doesn't matter much in that respect.

What is found to be so repulsive about it I would think is based in the fact that it is a group of people acting upon what they call a just penalty. It is not a state, it is not a Government and it is not a Religion either.

So it is really a hard thing to accept, but everyone in that region will see it differently. Some will see it as an icon of justice and others will see it as murder, but few will see it as Barbaric, IMO.

I guess it is a good thing they do not use immolate to the Gods of Justice by Fire?
