There is no need to speculate over how many might be dead if Saddam were
still in power. What's the point of that? The point is, Bush's actions
resulted in the deaths of up to hundreds of thousands of Iraqis, and for
what? For Bush's personal political reasons.

Harry,
Instead of saying "...resulted in the deaths of up to hundreds of
thousands of Iraqis" it would be just as accurate to say ... "resulted in
the deaths of up to hundreds of millions of Iraqis". The way you worded
that sentence it doesn't matter what number you use, it is still a true
statement.



Who cares, as long as we're bringing democracy to the Middle East, right?

"Consultative Council or Majlis al-Shura (150 members and a chairman
appointed by the monarch for four-year terms); note - though the Council of
Ministers announced in October 2003 its intent to introduce elections for
half of the members of local and provincial assemblies and a third of the
members of the national Consultative Council or Majlis al-Shura,
incrementally over a period of four to five years, to date no such elections
have been held or announced."

Maybe the country described above should be our next stop.




I wonder why ReggieTurd keeps addressing questions or making suggestions
to me?

What an ass.
