"What of Saddam's grandchildren?"

You got me there, I wasn't even aware this monster had kids until all this started!

[sweetliberty]

Well, usually these egomaniacal tyrants think they're doing the world a great service to impregnate multiple women, so it should come as no great surprise.

[TheLion]

I'm sure they have many that they don't even know about. I just heard mention of Middleburg, Va. on Fox news, did you hear what Snow was talking about?

[sweetliberty]

No, other than something about people going to the capitol for a weekend or something. Wasn't paying close attention.

[TheLion]

They must be visiting out here. Was it Blair' group, you think? I'll have to get out and see what's up!

[Rocko]

Bump.

[sweetliberty]

Hehehe....I don't know. I think I am on information overload. I need a vacation!

[TheLion]

I think we all do! Hanging around here is almost like being in the war.

I don't understand why a small wind gust and a little rain takes out my phone, tv, and power for hours and 5000 bombs can't even take Iraq TV down.

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

ROFL! Not military grade I would guess!

Not only that, but they have brought ongoing conflict to every nation where they have taken up residence, which is why I am so concerned that we are placating them and giving them a voice in the U.S.

Well, they were just following their peaceful religion, which is written in the Koran:

Koran (III - The House of Imran: 75) "And when Allah took Compact with the Prophets: That I have given you of Book and Wisdom: then there shall come to you a Messenger confirming what is with you - you shall believe in him and you shall help him; do you agree? They said, 'We do agree'. Allah said, 'bear witness so, and I shall be with you among the witnesses'. Then whosoever turns his back after that - they are ungodly."

"They are ungodly." Since Islam is the only true religion, it has the duty to dominate all other faiths and thus abolish them, and their followers better instruct the rest to embrace their religion or else!

[Victoria Delsoul]

But I'm sure the "peaceful" Muslims skip over those 800 incitements to hatred and violence, completely ignoring them and only concentrating on the "peaceful" sections, yeah right/sarcasm off

That's right, they concentrate on more peaceful things such as the Koran dictates, like getting people who aren't Islamic to renounce their faith, or become victims of destruction by force of arms, better known as Jihad. By the way there are close to 900 of these verses in the Koran.

I can't ping the WCMH list. (Not history related.) But, I can have this put on the war list.

[Sparta]

I can't ping the WCMH list.

On second thought. If you want on or off the Western Civilization Military History ping list, let me know.

[SAMWolf]

Tahnks for the ping Sparta

[kulot]

Granted, the history of ""some"" of those ""1 billion"" who claim to be Muslim as of late has not been good.

Any thought as to the religion and actual pratices of many of the thousands of victims of these tortures?

The Ba'ath party is not a Muslim government. It happens to be in a Majority Muslim country. This is about a dictatorship, not a religion.

[MattinNJ]

Thanks.

I don't recall posting anything about this war being about religion. Nevertheless the actions of Hussein his sons and of his party --the Baath party-- pretty much resemble the many verses which are written in the Koran and the actions of other Muslims, and even though the party is secular, it's pretty much steeped in Socialism. Furthermore the Baath party is associated with radical Arab nationalists and are behind the Palestinian terrorists.
