Yes UN should have more guts to help bring peace.

Give me one proof that Iraque is planning to attack USA.
I just find it so sad when a big part of the population is so brainwashed by
the goverment that they actually has started to call Irque the enemy. As I
see it the only hostile part so far has been USA, it is USA preparing for
war, treating and having a mediacircus (psychlogic war). So far I have not
seen any pictures of Iraquen troups standing at the board of Mexico waiting
for the right moment, not even any iraquen ships outside Florida...on the
other hand I have seen pictures of some other countries war mashine near the
borders of iraque *hint*

I most honestly say, that I think this Bowen guy is even more arrgonat that
I am LOL.

I do not have much fait in the russian army either, but there is one thing
that makes them powerfull. The quantity. We tried to fight them ( Finland)
during WW II, and although one finnish solider would have killed 100
russians, there was still 1000 to come, however, Russia has quite advanced
technology these days .
I would not even want to know who would kicks whom ass in a fight, because
it would not matter. Both sides has enough weapons to take out all life on
earth. In the next WW there will be no winner.

LOL it would not, but if some cowboy president of yours gets into his head
he needs something from Europe, he might declarte Europe an enemy (like
Iraque) and we need to be nuked in the name of peace. When that happens we
might need to go for our guns.

Iraq is becoming a threat however because they did not get rid of their
nukes and biological weapons and the US plans to get rid of them before
anything can be done with them. The UN has even found proof that this is so,
and with all the stalling that Saddam is doing it's giving him time to hide
the weapons so that nothing will be found. Bush is not going in there to
start a war, he's planning to get Saddam out who has been a threat to the
world once before... Saddam said he will fight before he will leave, if he
wants to fight than the US will do everything in it's power to either get
him exiled or kill him. If you did not notice, this is turning out almost
exactly the same way as Hitler started his whole thing. Taking small pieces
of land and than saying he'll stop, and than taking more and saying he'll
stop, again and again while the rest of the world allowed him to do that he
kept taking more and more land and than it became a problem and many lives
were lost in the war that finally was waged against him. It's happening
again as the UN is deciding to try to ignore Saddam and his Weapons of Mass
Destruction, and Bush is trying to take a Pro-active stance so that WWII
will not happen again. If Bush gets rid of the problem (Saddam) he would
hopefully be saving one heck of a lot more lives than if the whole world
decided to wage war against Iraq and it's allies... (which could potentially
start a third world war) If the US goes in and takes out the guy who would
be causing the threat and leave than we don't have to worry about the WMDs
or Saddam ever coming back to power to cause more problems.

I do see it a problem however for the following reason:

Saddam probably will not use chemical weapons to get rid of his
"neighbors" at the moment because if he does, he knows death for him will be
in-excapable. If Bush DOES in fact go into war, Saddam might decide to take
as many of his "neighbors" down with him when he goes down.

I also disagree with Bush's three stupid excuses to go to war with Iraq...

I hope you don't have platoons of 1 troop. This is the same excuse people use to
claim China is a super power. Just because you have mass numbers does not mean they
are trained to fight. I'm sure one US soldier with a rifle and a lot of ammo could
mow down a couple hundred thousand Chinese before they ever reached him. (China
doesn't have enough weapons for every soldier as far as I'm aware)

Please. I'll say this again, if you don't take risks, something worse could happen.
The UN doesn't do squat, they found empty shells that weren't declared in the weapons
report. Why would you not put empty shells on the weapon report? Well obviously you
could load warheads into there. It makes you wonder what he _did_ lie about. Gee
could maybe he have some other empty shells that, just happenstancely, a nuclear
warhead fell into it; or maybe a botulism toxin warhead?

It is not the taking out Saddam I have a great problem with, just that it
should not be one country deciding about it. I do not either understand why
USA is/was holding back their so called proof. Powell said something that we
have more but we cannot give it. I think the right way would have been,
presenting proof, deciding in UN about a solution, and a last way war,, not
threat with war, presenting selected pieces of proof and then even saying if
you will not join us ( Europe) we will go alone.

I do not think people realize that taking out Saddam is not a short process,
well taking him out might be, but it will not stop there. This will probably
cause a terror wave by the fundalentamist, a possible "civil war" in Iraque,
when Shia-muslims and the kurds wants their voice heard. People has also
forgotten how will Iran react. One strike in the bees-nest can cause a lot
of unwanted action in middle-east. So I really hope there will be a
peacefull solution. I think the problem is that a strike will be a signal to
middle-east, now is western world again telling us what is good for us. It
should rather be made by supporting the "anti-saddam" ppl in the region.
Last time the shias was left on their own when they would have needed help
the most, some managed to escape to Iran but a lot was killed by Saddam.

Of course I guess one can look at this from this point also: Since USA was
the one who put Saddam in charge and give him the weapons, they have the
right to take him down also ( since he did not become the puppeteer they
wanted)

Do we really know what China has hidden in their huge land?
I have a feeling you think a bit too much of US soliders ( not meaning to
disrespect any US solider), a hint : Vietnam .

Btw, do you know why Bush is in such a hurry to attack ? Because soon there
will be too hot for american soliders to fight

Reality changes fast, just think of WW II, one day we fought with the
germans the next day against them. German was an anemy to USA, now they are
a memeber of Nato. Countries from former Warzava pact are now memebers of
Nato. USA used to support Saddam when Iran was they empire of evil, how is
it now?

I am not saying Iraque do not have these weapons, but what happened to
innocent until proven quilty?
EMPTY warheads do not sound so dangerous to me. About 10 years ago when USA
last bombed Iraque, a lot was destroyed, many war shelters become a mess, so
it is actually possible it is hard to make a list of everything .
If you was asked to make a list of all items you own, could it happen you
would miss some?

9/11 is what is diffent now Count. We have seen what muslim
fundamentalists are capable of.

I do sincerely hope that after iraq then next country to be bombed is
north korea....

So we at least can try to prevent those fanatics acquiring weapons of
mass destruction.

I know we all have to die one day, but for me to die because some crazed
fanatic dumps antrax spores in my neighbourhood, or flavours milk tanks
with ricin?

no thanks

[View Quote] No. Anyone with half a brain would know how to inventory correctly. If the UN
weapons inspectors can find them, they're not hidden too hard not to notice.

The point is the LIED about EMPTY warheads. That strikes me as puzzling as why would
you lie about a weapon that can't do anything but make a pile of dust? Now, if they
would lie about _EMPTY_ ones, why oh why couldn't they lie about warheads that are
completely armed and ready to be used?

Well, for one thing they had these things made to a greater specificity than
any others, or any the US ever had made and each one was made to greater and
greater specificity. In other words, they went to unnecessary pains making
them "perfect" if they were for "standard" warheads.

Lol no, in their hearts they are dancing already, they just dont want to
get bombed. As i was in Israel in the north, 16 km from the lebanese
border during the 1976 libanon crises, i can tell being bombed is really
scary...

I still remember vividly after hearing a whistling sound and a bang
seeing a human leg dangling from a tree.

Who wants to be bombed?

Which normal person wants to bomb someone?

But if it a question between the lesser of 2 evils pleas ebomb the shit
out of sadam before he gives antrax to terrosts groups. Or do you
believe his big blue eyes he doesnt have contact with them?

As long as it is a supposed attacke, I see no reason. I cannot go and kill
my neighbour just because he has a gun and could harm me. UN was founded to
help keep the peace, and yes if there is proof Iraque is going, is in
progress of attacking ANY country , UN needs to take action. So far we have
the word of USA against the word of Iraque. I have not seen one missile
flying towards USA yet.
