Now I know why I never even bother posting in this forum anymore. I didn't even solely blame it on the U.S (it was carried out by the U.N.) and my numbers were even downsized, massively. The sanctions killed somewhere between 400,000 - 800,000 people but hey if it was caused from starvation among other things who gives a shit..it's clearly more important if bombs are dropped. I just don't find what killing Saddam will achieve. Justice?

lol you think the republicans had this all strategically planned for the sole purpose of elections?
Yes. It’s all all a game. Osama Bin Laden is still running around because Bush needs everyone scared shitless in order to get votes.

No you know what? We have had OBL for two months now, but the republicans are waiting for tomorrow to release the information to the public in order to affect voting decisions. That way, the democrats will have a tough time recovering in that short time span up till the elections.

It’s not good politically for Bush to capture him. After all it’s not easy to fight a war without an enemy.

Also wander with caution; literalists are boring. It’s the provocative thinkers that change the world.

rolleyes: Oh course not, but he is a figure head. The whole American system is based on such superficiality. The main reason Bush won in 2004 was due to his spread of fear among the American people. They need OBL (As Coleman put it) as a symbol of that fear. Without him the conservatives have nothing to work with.

The people murdered by islamic terrorists in Bali, Madrid, London and even Baghdad for that matter,
are no less dead because you think "the whole American system is based on such superficiality", I think
it is you who is being superficial to pretend terrorism in just some convienient political ploy.

While I wont disagree that terrorism is an issue, it is most definitely used as a cheap political tactic to win elections or an argument.

I realise that is absolutely true, same here.... but as you said, the issue is real
and ongoing and cannot be dismissed because of the way politicians use it.

Perhaps the people carrying out the attacks should stop, and deny
their enemies the excuse that they are instead continually providing.
