Wow Kerry took the Florida primary!

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.

I never quite understood this line of reasoning. If I may ask, when were they destroyed?

No the ones with interest are just his friends who own oil en building companys.

Oh dear lord, not this again. If we wanted oil without the risk and with a helluva lot less political risk we could have "seized" Kuwait or Saudi Arabia. Realistically, we could have pushed harder to dig in the Alaskan National Wildlife Reserve.

The fact is, and I hope you can understand, that the rest of the world is thinking " who is next".

Of course we understand this. It's the whole point! Or maybe a picture helps explain it. We want Libya calling Berlesconi (apologies for spelling) saying "I saw what happened in Iraq and I was afraid". Now he's dismantling. Iran, in its infinite wisdom has not and is playing games because it knows Bush is currently a lame duck on foreign policy and there is a chance that Kerry will win.

However, there's a deeper point. Let's call it like it is. We want you afraid. Read that sentence again. We want you afraid. Our "allies", via Oil for Food or straight up sanction violations either looked the other way while their businesses sold illegal tools to Iraq (recall the Russian controversy of the sattelite jammers just before the war?) or were actively complicit in it themselves. I'm confident that Bin Laden wasn't the only one that thought we were a paper tiger. The reason we attacked Iraq, despite the assurances from such impartial sources as France and Hans Blix, is because we knew of these relationships which were accelerating and we couldn't risk our "allies" further enabling Iraq all while claiming he was "contained".

We want you terrified because we refuse to remain that way ourselves. We're forging new alliances due to the reality on the ground and waving goodbye to certain older alliances. Under the table of course, we'd never fully admit it, but we're marginalizing certain countries until they get with it. You don't like it and we don't care. We prefer to live, thanks.

But hey, if you want to stay rankled on it, chew on this. Are you sure you know who you're supporting either? For full disclosure, Newsmax is a conservative website.
