Ok, I just need to vent. I know FR frowns upon Vanity. But now with this Sadr putz calling on his followers to attack Americans, I say nertz to him. What we should have done a year ago is say to Saddam "our bad" re-install him to power, and let t˙e ingrates like Sadr and the rest realize how good they could have had it with us there. I am really getting fed up with the ingrates.
I believe that WMD’s or not, we had plenty of justification to go into Iraq. Where GWB and I part company is that he is much more compassionate than I am. I don’t really feel that all those folks deserve rescuing.
No matter what we do to them or for them, at the end of the day, we are still just infidels and the muzzies will still hate us.
Yeah, nertz!
Whoa, don't let your anger make you say something you may regret later!
ZOT!
Don’t you know from sarcasm?
Not zot! Read the first comment on the thread. :-)
Apparently, you couldn't care less.
Seriously. Reinstalling or keeping Saddam would have been wrong and total nonsense. But what we should have done, and STILL should do, is to show more ruthlesness in face of the enemy. We should have have killed Moqtada Sadr and any other known terrorist leader years ago.
Saddam is not the issue. We should use our power instead of trying to be politcal correct.
I didn’t see your comment below the post. Sorry.
If you’re only mad as “heck”, you ain’t very mad yet.
How many of ours have died because Sadr was allowed to walk away? Serious mistake. I would say it was one of the biggest mistakes of the whole war.
Too much kid gloves by the administration.
Is that how your mama taught you to speak? ;’}
Do you kiss your mom with that mouth??
I still think that our best option in Iraq would have been to dissolve the country entirely, forming a kurdish state that was friendly to our interests and where our troops could be based and a Sunni state that would be the puppet of the Saudis and a Shia state that would be the puppet of Iran. These two would fight a nice little war, keeping them occupied with matters other than converting the infidels for decades.
We couldn’t do anything to him at that time after he fled inside the mosque. We missed our chance. We also missed our chance this time in capturing this idiot as he left to Iran. Let’s hope for chance of air raids that will also kill Sadr too.
I believe so too. However, Turkey, Syria, and Iran may have formed an axis to invade Kurdistan. We would have to deal with three extra enemies at the same time.
The Iraq War was never contingent upon the existence of WMDs. The Iraq War is based on the verification of disarmament by the Hussein regime to the UN inspectors. The Hussein regime was never able to fully cooperate nor verify full disarmament in over 12 years. The UN (not the Bush Admin) had actual records from the Hussein regime of their production of 1000s of tons on anthrax, sarin, and XV nerve agent. The Hussein regime never could verify the destruction, nor the use, of these WMDs. To this day, they are still unaccounted for. Google: Blix Jan 27, 2003
Heck is for people who don’t believe in Gosh.
