Start off by searching for the number he sent to their deaths against war with Iran.

We were discussing civilian deaths.

Then watch the video of the Kurd gas attacks.

Two points -

1. Hard to condemn them for using poison gas when components of that gas came from us and had been previously used with our knowlege and consent.

2. Are kurds civilians or combatants waging civil war against the gov't.?

Then watch how those who got on the wrong side of him were treated.

Horribly, I'm sure. I'm not sadistic enough to want to watch.

p.s. Internal matters between citizens and their gov'ts. don't justify invasion.

The reality is that you don’t care about this.

Care enough to be posting about it.

You care about being “right”.

And I almost always am. It's a burden.

Well F-— you.

Not a chance.

We’re there

Forever?

... and things are turning around and nothing you post can change that

We'll see. For everybody involved, I hope you're right.

We were discussing civilian deaths. Civilian or not, these were Iraqis who were forced to war by the mad man and died in his meat grinder war plans. A military death and a civilian death was still the death of a human being. 1. Hard to condemn them for using poison gas when components of that gas came from us and had been previously used with our knowlege and consent. 2. Are kurds civilians or combatants waging civil war against the gov't.? 1. To the extent this is true, we were wrong. Consider the war in Iraq part of our repentence if you want. 2. I didn't see many women, children, or infants in the gasing videos who would be considered combatants by any sane person. Even if they were combatants, gasing them would be illegal and wrong.
