there, as our education system is (well, more and more) a sheep-making
machine.

How do you like all of my generalizations ? Dude, just because a few forum
users from Canada don't agree with your tainted views, you shouldn't build
up a biased point of view about another country. The irony ? I do it myself.
I guess I'm a hypocrite... but I have to say I've met some really smart ppl
from the US too.

Tell you what; I'll drop my biased view of americans if you do the same.
Feel like trying it ?
Yeah, np.

Ok, lets be real here. The world "wants" the U.S. to get involved with affairs such as these. Sorry to break your hearts, but we do have alot of support from other countries with the war on terror.
During the Gulf War, 13 allied countries joined in the fight against Iraq including some Arab nations. During the campaign in Afghanistan, again we were joined by other countries (including those friendly neighbors to the north of us wink. British Prime Minister Tony Blair stated that they have sufficient evidence that claims Iraq is making nuclear weapons. Do you really believe the U.S. is going into this alone? We may be the front runners but we're gonna have alot of help from most of the countries that the people here live in.

If you cared to read the news, most countries are against this oppression...

And where is this factual evidence they speak of ? I would like to peruse it
instead of taking some moron's word for a change.

Yes just like europe thought hitler would go away. But noooo he invaded poland. Vietnam is not an example because we kinda were forced into that situation. Stupid frenchys.
Saddam is not hitler, he is nothing like him, at first america supported hitler. Hitler was a guy who was invading europe in an american's eyes. You wanted nothing to do with him, until japan attacked pearl harbour. The point is saddam did not knock down the world trade center, saddam did not think on a large scale like hitler did, saddam does not have an army that could hold its own against nearly half of the nations in the world, Saddam doesn't not have any allies that pose a big threat. How were you forced into vietnam, why were those american ships in the gulf of tonkin? i say america should stick to her own affairs, or she will be burned, badly..... again.
It was staged, so we could send forces in. An excuse if you will. hmm is history gonna repeat itself?

No, but just like the WTC incident, it was ALLOWED to happen for the United
States to have a reason for invading another country for something they've
been after for a long time...


EDIT: I'm supposed to believe they didn't see it coming in both cases ?
Puh-leeeeeze.

So far, there are 3 countries who support a regime takeover in Iraq. The U.S., Great Britain, and Isreal. We'll have to see what comes about from the other world leaders such as China, Russia, France...etc.
I doubt that we'll go to war with Iraq because ultimately, we need the backing from all of them and i know Russia won't give in....they just signed an economic deal with Iraq so there goes the war theory.

From the begining, i always said there was a better alternative than war. A nice lil' assassination would do just fine. But whatever happens, it's sure to stir things up but sometimes you need to weather the storm. There is no easy answer.

I'm gonna have to add Austalia, Spain, Italy, and Kuwait to the list who support the regime takeover. The rest of the world is against a military strike so i believe the U.S. probably won't invade. I don't think Bush is gonna get enough support from congress either.
Only time will tell.
