They attacked us for no other reason other than they consider us to be evil. We waited, put the situation into scope, found out who did this, why they did this, and if they are planning to do it again, then we asked our allies to please back us while we go into Iraq to do what we feel is necessary to protect the US from ever suffering like that again. Do you think Sadaam, or Osama will ask the UN for its approval before they attack again? Do you think they will single out soldiers only, and leave innocent civilians unharmed? Its not complicated, they are the psychos, we just want to protect ourselves. Its not rocket science

And statements like that and "the Ant-War people are Hippies" BS Just shows the childish mindset of some people in here
|
Hippie or hippy(n)(pl.)hippies - A person who opposes and rejects many of the conventional standards and customs of society, especially one who advocates extreme liberalism in sociopolitical attitudes and lifestyles. By definition, if you are a peace activist, you are doing exactly what is defined here. So you aren a hippie..Its not a childish mindset, its just a fact...

Kubie,The Gulf War was indeed about Oil,Why do you think Iraq invaded Kuwait? To gain access to there Corn Fields? If it wasnt about Oil what the hell was it about?
|
Let me use an argument out of a hippies own handbook here. Its not "Iraq" that invaded Kuwait, it was Sadaam and his army.Just like the US Military is not attacking Iraq, we are attacking Sadaam and his army. The guy is a power hungy maniac, do the names Alexander the great, Ghangis Kahn, Hitler...any of them ring a bell...He wants nothing but power and will go to any lengths to get it.

Sure Saddam was a brutal dictator who killed his own people but remember We were in bed with him and backing him in the 80's, How soon Americans forget
|
You say brutal dictator who killed his own people so litely, as if it really makes no big deal...
And yet you jump on Bush because he is trying to protect us from becomming a society ruled by fear of terrorism...And yes we were in bed with him in the 80's, I dont see how you say "we forget" I hear it mentioned atleast 10 times a day on any news station. Back then he was "playing ball" he worked with is, seemed like he would be just the right person to establish diplomatic, equally beneficial treaties with, but they he went on his power trip...The man is worshiped like a god over there...His mind has taken a serious walk off the map, how can you reason with that???
