The cheif U.N. weapons inspector did not believe there were weapons of mass destruction in the country and requested more time.
When was the first war? 1992? More time? I think 10 years is a good round number. N.Korea has more time, let's see if they use it as poorly as Saddam.
of course there were no more WMD in Iraq. Everything was destroyed, something Bush knew because (US government words) Iraq was full of american spies.
That even now they still think there might be WMDs is just ridiculous. If Saddam had them he would use them this time.
Quote:Remember Bush had no interest in invading Iraq or Afghanistan.
No the ones with interest are just his friends who own oil en building companys. The american tax-payer pays the build-up of Iraq and these companys take the profit. It would all have been a lot easier if they just had raised the fuel prices :blink: .
Quote:Name one thing, just one, that to date is a definite bad idea. Free Afghanis? Free Iraqis? Dictators afraid for their power? Sounds like a great state of things. 5 years ago if someone told you we would have Saddam Hussein behind bars would you have belived it? His meathods may ruffle some feathers but you can't argue the results.The result is not under discussion, with nobody. The fact is, and I hope you can understand, that the rest of the world is thinking " who is next". If the US-economy goes completely down the drain, new victims have to be found. And with americas highly superior weaponry nobody stands a chance. At that point I say, thank god there are some other countries with nuclear weapons. I know this is highly unlikely, but so is for example the idea that Libya or North Korea would attack another country. I mean Khadaffi en Il can at least think for themselves (on their own) :D
I think the most important thing in our modern world is dialog between the US and other countries (like europe). We need a president who knows something about other countries, not one for whom his visit to washington was the first time "abroad". :D
