Ill state it again.
The countries that do not support the war, mainly france germany and russia, stand to possibly lose big money by saddam being removed.
The people in this country that do not support it are the left who want to do severe damage to bush in hopes of giving themself a chance in the next election. They certainly had no problem with clinton killing civilians when ousting milosovic from power.

Very briefly:
1. Please explain how these countries stand to lose more money than the U.S. (and Bush's pals) plans to make? If they oppose war for financial reasons, wouldn't that be better than supporting war for financial reasons?
2. Several countries in South America as well as, I believe (could be wrong here), Mexico oppose the war. What is their motivation or angle?
3. In some of the countries you list, 80%-90% of the population of the country is against the war. The people, not just the government officials. Do you really think the average Frenchman is against the war because he wants his government to make money on some deal with Iraq?
4. There is a lot of blind repeating of White House talking points by right wingers on GFY. Some of you guys just repeat whatever you are told by the right wing media without doing the research to see if it's true or even slightly believable. Generally it isn't productive to engage in debate with people who believe whatever they hear on talk radio.
