»If you want to stop cruel dictators so much«







then go and attack Saudi Arabia. Hey did you know that Saudi Arabia actually has links with 9/11? Direct links!

If Bush and Blair had said "It's about time we stopped Saddam's reign of terror once and for all" I'd have been happy. What they did instead was make up some bullshit about WMDs. It's pathetic.

here we go again



its not a matter of stopping every dictatorship throughout the world

yes saudi arabia have a brutal human rights record with regard to punishment of crime etc...but those are their laws...they keep themselves to themselves...they don't threaten and harass andn invade their neighbours...they don't attempt covert proliferation of WMD'S...and they have a mutually beneficial relationship with the western world

if there is one dictator i WOULD like to see removed...it would be mugabe of zimbabwe

Topic change, anomaly! This is not about stopping dictators, this is about fake reasons to invade a country.

So what? The topic TITLE is just 1 parameter. You have to stick of course to the WHOLE theme of the first post.

Re: here we go again



the anomaly:
they don't attempt covert proliferation of WMD'S...

There's no proof that Iraq did that.
the anomaly:
and they have a mutually beneficial relationship with the western world

does that include harbouring fundametalist islamic terrorist groups such as Al Quiaeda?

get it right fatpie



the saudi's are further ahead than most middle eastern countries at tackling terrorism...they know the consequenses of not assisting the US with regard to terror...they do far more than syria and other countries like that

as for the covert development of WMDs'...i think you will find that hundreds of military reports show the use of mobile chemical weapons factories as well as the duel use fixed factories...as well as attempts to aquire precursors for biological weapons after 1998(when the inspectors were THROWN OUT)

Non was true

Yes, yes, yes. But Saddam wasn't attacked because of that. He was attacked because Blair said that his rockets can reach UK in 20 minutes.

The attack was called pre-emptive strike, which makes a mockery of world history.

None of it was true, thus the real reasons remain unclear.

the fact is that this is the sole part that the media decided to latch onto

it was not the only piece of information and intelligence that was put forward during the case for war

it was a stupid descision by the government to try to make the situation more extreme if it was against the advice of the intelligence service

but this still doesnt stop the fact that saddam was in "material breach" of his obligations

and the UK is different from "uk targets" which were infact if memory recalls...UK military bases in cyprus which were in range of the missiles that iraq had obtained(this is from memory and may be wrong...i will have to check but cant be particularly bothered as its late White laugh )

If Iraq really had all these weapons



then how come they still haven't found more than a few shells?

they are hidden good..



they wouldn't have found saddam w/o help, they won't find wmd without help...

the total left



of actual chemical content that has been unacounted for is roughly enough to fill an petrol road tanker...in a country the size of france...under constant threat of fire and terrorism

so as far as i know the search hasn't really begun as the americans would like it to

but again...the WMD's were never the single reason given for the war...so i don't see what the fuss is about even if they arent found

It has ended already. US doesn't look for them anymore.

And even IF they were found: Would be by chance and not something the CIA knew beforehand.

Michael Moore - F911



I know there are a few people here that don't really believe a lot of what moore says, but F-911 contains a lot of clips of prewar speeches of what others said.

I includes the clip which shows the satellite photos of Iraq with all the locations of WMD clearly labelled and the message "as soon as we go in we'll prove this to you"

They didn't Shocked

Love it or hate it, F-911 is a good reminder of what people actually said rather than what they now claim they said.
