Yikes.NBC News correspondent captures US soldier executing a wounded,unarmed P.O.W.

[CFZB]

this is how I see it,and much of this viewpoint was formulated after watching some intellectual guy for an hour on c-span about 6 months back(I posted summaries and links too back in July?August)
has nothing to do with WMDs
has virtually nothing to do with the tenuous Al_queda link
has to do with our military presence in saudi,which has been considerably strengthend post gulf war one. and this explains to some extent why the lion's share of the 9/11 attacker's were from saudi
also connected to all of the turmoil in the area that foments so much arab angst is the so one-sided US support of Israel( and for the record and I can understand both the palestian's plight and the Israeli fears)
at some point it was necessary to deal with Saddam's aggressive posture IN THE AREA so that we may eventually get the hell out of Saudi
this sitaution was only going to get worse over time
and the area is SO strongly resource gifted
no one would give a shit if this was some festering African shithole
admit it
how many of you volunteer your time in humanitarian ways in the local ghetto?
how many of you would donate an extra $20 dollars ADDED to your tax bill if there was a check box that said
There are a plethora of African nations and people who could use some cash,please donate
how many of you have answered sally struthers pleas?
I'm sidetracked

i think your right bro....we faught for our freedom with torches and pitchforks...iraqis had a hard life before this and they most certainly will after,(at least they were alive) minus however many dead on both sides....but my grandfather didnt come over here from italy to get a away from mussalini so his grand and great grand children could free iraq. which wont happen anyway...its a 3000 year old battle...and these smucks think the chimp will fix it (in 4 more years lol). not gunna happen monkey boy.....(btw my grandfather on my moms side was in pearl harbor...and my dad ,vietnam...i served my stint as well...)I'm sidetracked too.

my grand dad was a colonel in WWII and was stationed in Cairo,Egypt
got all kinds of photos of him with Arabs and shit
ever see the back side of the pyramids?
after the war he made a bunch of cash dealing with the arabs and investing in the mid-east
too bad the guy was a bit TOO conservative and New Jersey got about half of his estate
he would drink the cheap whiskey out of plastic half gallon bottles you could buy at A&P to save money
when he died we cleaned out the place and found cases and cases of premium booze he had recieved as gifts over the years
Beefeaters gin in a 2 GALLON bottle
case of stuff from back when they wrapped the bottles ion plastic wrap and sealed it
for reasons such as this some of us are so against the redistribution of wealth
here was a guy who for the most part lived very frugally and responsibly,and the state of New Jersey benefits

Yes....making the connection between 9/11 and Iraq is quite sneaky.

the ironic impression I have is that for the most part I feel that I would enjoy hangin' out and drinkin' beers with some of my on line "adversarys". Probably more so than many of my "team". Even wodin,that some bitch. Fuck it I'm a mortician and I see sad shit day in day out(today buried a 43 yr old guy died of colon cancer,the kicker is we buried him in an Auburn sweat shirt and hat. Here Auburn may very well win their first ever national championship and this guy,who has had this cancer for some time,dies just maybe 2 months short of getting at least a good spirited day, enough of which he might could have forgotten of his numbered days and pain).

 

[AristotleBC]

because WE (u.s.)told them to rise up agaist him(sadam).....that wasnt smart either...i wonder who was the prez then?...care to comment on that?

So you don't care about oil for food because of the failed uprising after '91?

Interesting reasoning process.

 

[Testosterone boy]

How come you're not complaining about the soon to be millions who died under Saddam's regime and the France/Russia/China/UN/Saddam oil for food scandal during the sanctions years? Including more than half a million children.



If Iraq is a democracy fairly soon, (that process would be helped if people like you would stop trying hard as all hell to make it fail) then millions more who would also likely have died under that system which no longer exists will instead have the chance to live in freedom.

You care to comment on that?

I am wondering why we should believe all of the stories about Saddams regime. We encouraged the Kurds to rebel then turned our backs on them and watched the inevitable slaughter. We showed no real interest in ousting him until after 9/11.

We were very good buddies with Saddam in the 80's. Did he wake up one day as a different person?

How is posting ones frustration on a fitness board equate to "trying hard as hell to make it fail?"

Iraqi's clearly did not want to become a "democracy." Can you argue that we were within our rights to militarily force our vision of "democracy" through the barrel of the cannon and the ballistics of the missile? A "democracy" that is really a puppet of the Israeli state if one looks a little closer.

Living in freedom? We used to do that right here.

I never said that the invasion of Iraq could not be eloquently defended. What I repeatedly say is that the manner of the invasion was absolutely barbaric and I suspect the global retribution and repercussions may prove to be hideous beyond the average imagination.

There is much to be said for being a good neighbor. Much to be said for not getting tagged with the proverbial bully image.

I want this country to succeed. However I happen to believe that our success is dependant on the failure of the tactics and goals of a certain administration.

Have you read up on the backgounds of Feith, Wolfowitz, and Perle? Your talk and vision of a "Pan-Islamic dominated world plan" would receive a new tint on your glasses.
