Jbecause, you don't pay much attention to America Politics do you?

"You don't believe Saddam was a threat to the world as a whole? Bin Laden should be next!"

Did you miss the whole thing about forcing Bin Laden's Taliban out of Afghanistan? We went after Bin Laden first, he just has a much better network for hiding.

One example is the testimony of Sabah Khodada, a captain in the Iraqi army who emigrated to Texas in May after working for eight years at what he described as a terrorist training camp at a bend in the Tigris River just southeast of Baghdad."

According to the Times, Khodada described the camp as "a highly secret installation" where "non-Iraqi Arabs from Persian Gulf countries, including Saudi Arabia" received training in "assassinations, kidnapping, hijacking of airplanes, hijacking of buses, hijacking of trains, and all other kinds of operations related to terrorism."

In comments unmentioned by the Times but covered by PBS, Khodada said that when he saw the twin towers fall he thought to himself, "This was done by graduates of Salman Pak."

do you need any more proof then that..or would you rather see planes fly into some building first?

Okay I've gotta get in this being the opinionated prick I am.

The counter is probably leftist bullshit perpetuated to instill fear against those less educated (or less inquisitive) than the rest of us. Wonder what the war on Iraq number would look next to how much we spend on the war on drugs, welfare, and even SS (which by the time I retire I won't even be able to get though I've been paying for it for years). If the war on Iraq is costing us so much money, then how is it that the economy is growing the fastest it has in years? Yes I know it'll grow quickly after 9/11, but we're almost back to where we should be, but the fact is that it is growing. Gas prices have nothing to do with the war, it's all OPEC so blame them not Bush.

On to Sadaam. I don't know how someone can say he's not a threat when he cuts checks to the families of suicide bombers. WMD? Who cares, he didn't say he didn't have them even if our intelligence was flawed. My opinion is that they're either in the middle of the desert somewhere or shipped to another country. Also you cannot blame Bush exclusivly for that since Clinton, Bush Sr., Blair, and even the UN made the same statements regarding Sadaam's WMD. I'm not a huge fan of policing the world and don't think we'd do it unless there was some sort of national interest (which in this case it's security), but atleast we're getting in, establishing control and getting out.

Okay my brain is fried, I've been up for almost 24 hours now.

Well...
I spent some minutes readin' this thread... (i changed naked women). And i think it is good that some people wanna give their opinion about a (maybe) big problem...

But... I really don't know as much as some of u...

I live in a country that depends of USA in many things... But i don't know nothing about politicians or something like that... I just hate fuckin' war...Being USA, Mexico, or... whatever...

So... that's all i wanted to say... (if that's "something"
Lets go back to naked women

Typical for Americans... Saying "this war was justified"... Havent you heared?? NO weapons of mass destruction were found in iraq! The war started because...Bush said they had weapons of mass destruction!
Something else... The mess in iraq that the americans left after the last gulf war, the US used depleted uranium in their ammo and never cleaned it up, which still causes deformaties with newborn children over there.. I bet you never hear that on the news in the US! I suggest you americans check out this page and look at what the US did to iraq :

http://www.web-light.nl/VISIE/extremedeformities.html
Talking about weapons of mass destruction....
/Moderator notification: The pictures in above link are ectremely violent and disturbing!
Do not view them if you feel uncomfortible seeing brutally deformed children!
-Wit-/

Ok another interesting one: The civilians killed by US troops during the war:

Please don't tell me the US did the right thing

a world threat argument cannot be used by country that has trained osama bin laden
dictatorship arguments cannot be used bya a country that has placed dictators all over latinamerica (and prolly then rest of the world)

You cannot use typical and Americans in the same sentence. If you have the intelligence to read this post you will see that the Americans on WBW disagree so to overgeneralize Americans as a single unit is just ignorant.

Refresh my memory... what started the first gulf war? Oh yeah, Iraq invated another country! No weapons of mass destruction... tell that to the kurds who were gassed by the leader of their country!

lol, how do you all know wher weapons are and wher not. All those poeple who say this and that , only thing you know is what your own damn news tells you. FUCK that. If you want to know what happens you have to follow the news around the whole world not only your country shit. Or ewen better be ther wher it happens. Neither me or anyone els knows what the fuck is going on. we only can follow what is told to us. And i don't belive the news no more. Al the news makers are doing latly is to try to let as much poeple as they can to watch news, and how you do that to tell something spectaquiler. That aint news making that's selling shit. When i was lieing in the hospital almost dieing, the bbc came to interview me you knwo wtf they asked me, How do you feel? How i feel, i am fucking dieing you mofo how the fuck you think i feel. ( i dind't die as you see, and i thank god for that)

You know what kind of stupid questions i get here in nl (i am frome bosnie) like: You must have done something wrong otheriwse ther would be no war. I meen wtf man. This is a sample that has nothing to do with irak but has a lot to do with USA and Europe.
i will explain:

I read to many fucking times that the american govermant is a world power and that ther job is to protect the world, Wher wher they when bosnie got fucked up? Wher are they in somalie in zimbabve in jakarta. Oke i know what you gona say know, we don't need to fix all the shit. ke agree on that. BUt then why iraq? You realy bush whent ther to help iraqies, ach man ( i aint saying iraq is good or what ever) What makes me feel sick is that USA govermant feels like thay can SAY what is good or wrong. So if USA gouvermant things that gras is red and i think it is green i am wrong, wtf is that

I like america (they got nice woman ther) and like the poeple (know a lot of americans), but since couple of years i am starting to hate the POLITIEK in USA (not the poeple ther don't get me wrong).
The thing that got me pissed was when BUSH sad if you aint with us you are against us. I say FUCK you bush i was in a war i almost lost my live, ther is no fucking way i am gona fight for you or any other mother fucker who is sitting safely in his chair and drinking thee whyl me and my brothers/frends are dieing for nothing.


Hum i see i wrote this with a lot of emotion. ach als long as you remember that i got nothing against poeple in countrys but against govermants including the Dutch one who is fucking around latly too much too.

Ok I had to step in; Kimatrix, you are very right about the news, I listen to multiple news outlets some from the USA, and others via internet and shortwave. I have many friends in the military,and as contractors to the government. The Iraq war was for a very good reason, G.W Bush made a decision, based on the intellagence given, was it flawed? Intell is the calculated guesses from the information avalible, no more no less.What most people are forgetting is 9/11. The American people see things in a different light now, there is a under current of anger that has not been satisfied, and just as japan discovered after pearl habor all that was done was to awake the sleeping giant, one that is pissed and carries a big stick, Americans as a society are not nice people we are violent and we don't care what others think. I think the mass graves that are being found are the best justification for the war. Where are the WMD's? that is the question that scares the hell out of me, but we will find them and step on the little bug that has them. As to Bosnia, where was America? Well you will have to ask the previous administration as to why, they failed to act when they should have. As to politics of the U.S. well I have problems with them at times myself but I know there has not been a better system that works yet. Ok enough politics bring the naked babes,

Look all you people who hate or dislike America (including you Americans who have posted here), have fun and knock yourselves out. I really mean it. I am VERY opinionated about my country and those who bash it. But I can't tell you how to live you lives, and you can't tell me how to live mine. So take your best shot.


ooooooooooooooo............. btw...... whie you ARE bashing America, just remember the only reason you can do it is because American lives (for the most part. don't want to diss "the willing" who joined us) are protecting your ass from evil tyrants and terroists.

God Bless America

I'm with you miztik, I was trying real hard not to go off on a rant. My main point is that after 9/11, America as a nation thinks different and we carry a big stick and we will use it
