another face saving event for the USOriginally posted by dotsg::- So what you think abt this war?

Im not sure wad others say, but for USA hidden agenda or not, u muz admit that Bush is "abit" of hot headed old man...Originally posted by gasband:For USA and Uk and other countries who support the war, people insist they have a secret agenda in going to war with Iraq. It doesnt matter whether it is true or not, but the fact is that Saddam poses a bigger threat to world peace than Bush does.
As for France and Russia and China, you think they are so noble to be against war for peace's sake? Cmon they have their agenda for being against war too. China for one is obviously against war as analysts said that China in their developing stage needd OIL, alot of OIL thus if war goes on OIL prices go up, it hampers their plans.
Can we trust Saddam? the question u need to ask urself. They were given 12 LONG years to cooperate with the UN to declare and disarm and also not allowed to produce weapons of mass destruction. Saaddam said NO, we do not have such weapons. For 12 LONG years, they said that. But when USA wanted to attack them, SADDAM replied he will attack them with weapons of mass destruction, now isnt this a sign of an unrepentant crook? Who do u wanna trust now? 12 LONG years of lies is too much for anyone to take.
USA a bully? Oh cmon, do they go around attacking countries at will? Even if they have an agenda, they cant just attack because "I am USA". Did they do it? No! Instead, it was Saddam who attacked Kuwait at will. SO who is a BULLY? Saddam or Bush?
So, everyone in this world has secret agendas. The question is then, who has agendas that doesnt threaten our llives, certainly i guess USA would be our choice.
They may be a threat to us in the future, but that is uncertainty. But i would rather take the more logical solution to get rid of dangerous people like saddam NOW, cos that is a certainty that he is dangerous.Originally posted by Stefanism:Im not sure wad others say, but for USA hidden agenda or not, u muz admit that Bush is "abit" of hot headed old man...
Oil, i've already said... nobody wans da US neither Britain to have control over one of da largest raw fuel exporters in da world...
Can we trust Saddam? No definitely no, not someone who has more than 3 body stunt doubles... even more than Jackie Chan or Jet Li!!!
But is USA a bully? In some ways yes... is this war legally sanctioned by the UN? Somehow i am able to link the earlier issue of Bush attempting to influence the UN to allow immunity for US soldiers so dat they wouldnt have to be tried under the UN Law in The Hague in times of war or should Bush wage war with any country irregardless of UN support. And yes, they did attack Iraq juz becos THEY R USA, they are able to veto almost any decision in the UN coz they pay da most money and owe da most debt! But they send the most soldiers to most peacekeeping missions dat the UN is involved!
Whether USA will be a threat to the rest of the world is for us to see in the near future... are we able to feel safe for one superpower nation to become a megapower?![]()
the reason for da 12yrs wait is becos da past 2 presidents were Democrats...Originally posted by gasband:They may be a threat to us in the future, but that is uncertainty.

I dun think u understand what i meant when i said USA can attack just becos they are USA. They didnt say, "Oh i am free today, i feel like attacking Iraq, lets go!"
USA instead provided reasons for their attack which i think, amidst allegations of hidden agendas, are perfectly reasonable. If they really are a bully, why did they bother to wait 12 long years to attack Iraq? WHy did they bother to wait for UN to make a decision and yet UN is too weak to impose its authority. If USA is such a bully, they would have just gone ahead and not even waste time giving grace.
