Arming Iraq And The Path To War

[Alex H]

Good idea. Do you think they'll be as lucky as Japan and Germany?

this american bashing is bullshit
FORMER administations built saddam
someone had to undo it
nobody else had the balls

keep in mind, with our military, we could own the middle east
and have the world by the balls, but we dont
nobody wants to look at that because then you might
have to admit that we arent that bad after all

tell me a country that doesnt have skeletons?

bet there wont be too many replies to that question

Does your government admit it was former administrations that are to blame for the problems with Iraq? I'd like to read about that, do you have a link?

So you think you could own the Middle East and have the world by the balls? And the world would sit back and let you do it? You've been playing too many computer games.

You guys tried "owning the world" before and the Americans and Russians almost wiped out the entire planet because of it.

You've got big guns. Good for you. Perhaps you can use them for proper peacekeeping missions - perhaps you could talk to the UN and see if they can think of anything useful you could do with them.

If you asked me I wouldn't be as polite as they would be.

you f*ckers arent listening
the whole point of what i said is to show that shit isnt all you say
if the people in charge were so fuckin kniving and deceitful
they could convince the rest of the world that that was the way to go
and then swindle everyone outta the deal
i see no move towards that, do you?

well, if you keep readin what the democrats/left wing keeps tellin people....

Yeah, that's the way, let's get rid of the UN, and let 300 million Americans tell the other 6 billion of us what to do and when to do it. Why don't we have a vote on it? A poll maybe?

I’m sick and tired of these arrogant self righteous Americans, going around the world bringing misery and death with their misconceived crusades. Who on earth would ever want them as world leaders anyway? Look at the way they pronounce aluminium??

Its time they had another Vietnam to bring them down a peg or two. I say to the Iraqi resistance, who ever they are (and now it could be anyone), grit your teeth and choke the enemy’s neck.

Look mate, a long time ago some very wise people decided that rather than having everyone running around, killing each other willy nilly, they could set up a big forum where everyone could talk about their problems instead of bombing them. They realised that diplomacy was a better way of resolving international differences.

Oh, so the UN didn&#39;t get Saddam. You didn&#39;t get Ho Chi Minh. Big deal.

It is clearly documented and well known that George W Bush didn&#39;t win the election (don&#39;t ask me for a "source", type "Bush didn&#39;t win" in Google and have a browse through the 1,290,000 pages on the subject.)

Now suppose I felt that this was a gross perversion of democracy, and I decide to forceably remove him from office. And I&#39;ve got big guns so nobody feels like stopping me. Would you still tell the UN to piss off? Seriously, I have my finger on The Button and give George 24 hours to vacate the White House. I&#39;m a bit of a loose cannon and I will blow up the whole United States in a second if people don&#39;t do what I want. You wouldn&#39;t get the UN to try to reason with me? Tell me to chill out a bit?

We armed Afghans,Iraqis and Iranians so they wouldn&#39;t be annexed by the soviet union. If the soviets controlled Iran or Iraq they could manipulate the USA&#39;s oil supply witch would ruin are economy. If the soviet&#39;s took over Afghanistan they would be in control of the worlds opium supply, both scenarios would generate enormous amounts of cash.
The USA won the cold war because the soviet economy collapsed, if they acquired anyone of those 3 pieces of real estate there economy might not have collapsed.

So I&#39;m saying in retrospect it was appropriate to give them the guns and missiles then and still now those actions were the right thing to do. The other choice was to just do a first Nuke strike on the Soviets.
