of the real people (not the 56 handpicked employees of FOX network & news) shows overwhelmingly that the American people are AGAINST the WAR without
just cause.
Yes, Saddam is a pig.
Yes, he may have much to hide.
Yes, he probably gave monetary & possibly even training support to Taliban/AlQuida operatives
Yes, he shared intelligence with Taliban/AlQuida
We all know that this dirtbag should be ousted but do we not have a constitutional directive to not get involved in the politics of other countries.
We must allow the Iraqi people to make this decision, and if they require support I'm sure we'd be glad to help them and reap the OILY benefits
BUT
Is what shrub is doing a legitimate and legal attack upon another soveriegn power?
How would we feel if a foriegn power took it upon themselves to invade America with the intent of "assisting" the American people in the overthrow
of our govt, to free us from our tyrany under shrub?
As much as I can't stand the dork I'd still take offense to another country taking such actions against my country. Would you not also feel this
same way?
This is not the Allies liberating France in WW2 folks, we will not, regardless of our intent, be welcomed as the conquering heroes by the Iraqi
people. They will fight us hand-to-hand in the streets to the last standing Iraqi to protect their country, just as we would.
So what the hell are we doing this for? Will this bring back the victims of 9-11? NO!!! Will it make the Muslim world quake with fear? NO!!! It
will probably spur them onto even more monstrous acts of violence against the US and other western nations!!
So why then? Well, like it or not we're doing it for shrubs friends and business partners at SHELL, AMOCO, BP, EXON, GULF and ARCO. You know, most
of the braindead red necks he has in his cabinet posts?
ITS THE CRUDE DUDE, OIL THAT IS!!!! TEXAS TEA!!!
Please wake up and stop beating your nationalist chest and realize that fine young Americans are going to die by the thousands so you can continue to
gas up your HUMMER at a $1.50 a gallon or so. Here in Cali its more like $1.89 but hey, whatever right?
I for one don't feel gassing up my GMC is worth their young lives, and don't forget those who survived the bullets and bombs in the 1991 gulfwar,
came home sick and were told it was a psychosis but in fact we know now it was from chemical/biological agents and the depleted uranium rounds used by
the US against the Iraqi tanks... the same DU that has caused birth defects and infant deaths in both gulfwar vets kids and in the Iraqi's as
well.
So nationalist pride aside, look at this with an objective - not a jaundiced - eye. Don't accept the shrubs reasoning out of hand (mainly since
he's devoid of any ability to reason rationally or the use of any amount of common sense for that matter).
Close your mouth, open your eyes and ears and listen to what is actually being said by all sources, please don't rely on the skewed views of FOX or
MSNBC/CNBC or the rest of these conservative talking heads!!!
Make your voice heard and don't let group think rule your head or your heart. Bravery is also knowing when you should say STOP!!! It still says
"WE, THE PEOPLE..." not "WE THE CORPORATE WEENIES..."!!!
PEACE
