![]() "DSK" wrote in message news ![]() NOYB wrote: This is precisely the point where DSK has lost all credibility. There are several reasons why we went to war with Iraq. DSK's conspiracy theory isn't one of 'em. "Conspiracy" ?? Hardly. It is common knowledge, and easy for the public (if they care) to verify. Check the quarterly reports for Halliburton and Carlyle. It makes sense to attack another country *IF* that country poses a great danger to us in the near future.... an overused phrase is "imminent threat." According to various intelligence sources, Iraq posed a possible threat, according to others, not so much. BushCo ignored the more conservative threat estimates and exaggerated the one that said there was a threat, all to try and justify going to war. He even siezed the fabricated story about buying yellowcake uranium in Africa. Now over 500 American soldiers are dead, around 10,000 wounded... and over 10,000 Iraqis are dead. And we are stuck in another bloody quagmire. But hey, if you get a nice stock option package, it's worth it, right? Did Clinton stand to make a tremendous profit when he signed the Iraqi Regime Change Act in 1998? No, but after spending $60 million dollars investigating Whitewater, the same gang of chickenhawks that brought us Gulf War 2 decided that a blowjob was more important. Whoa. Hold on a minute. I thought you claimed to be a lifelong Republican who just changed his stripes because you didn't like Bush? Your true colors are showing here. If Clinton had removed Saddam Hussein from Iraq, he would *only* have done so with a broad international consensus and coopoeration of the UN. Like that would have happened. China, France and Russia stood to gain billions of dollars from contracts that they had with Saddam once UN sanctions were lifted. All three countries were clandestinely violating the UN sanctions by supplying military hardware and technology to Saddam. Do you really believe Clinton could have gotten those three members on board? Instead, BushCo has been a lone wolf and has gotten most of the rest of the world angry at us. Too ****ing bad for the rest of the world. We learned who our friends were when Bush made the decision to act. China and Russia can't be trusted...and apparently Chirac is no better. I'd rather be right than be liked. Many liberals have said that our actions in Iraq has turned many "moderate" Islamics against us. Well guess what? They've *always* been against us. The war just flushed them out of hiding a little sooner. Yeah, we're a lot safer now. A lot... We are...'cause at least now we know who our enemies are. Were you aware that Pakistani scientists were selling nuclear secrets to at least 7 or 8 other Arab nations while Clinton was President? Were you aware that N. Korea had a clandestine nuclear program that was in full motion while Clinton was President (despite the $4 billion that Clinton gave them)? Were you aware that terrorists were already planning the attack on the WTC while Clinton was President? Sometimes, your enemy doesn't reveal his hand until it's too late for you to do something about. And sometimes you have to do something to provoke him to know where he truly stands. |
