Then look for any hahahahahahahahas saying what happened to the WMD's, Il'll give you a hint you won't find anything saying what happened to them.

Please, I know the facts and I knew from the start that Saddam was no threat. Anyone familiar with the ME would've known.
But let's just say that you're right and he does have WMD's. The fact that he didn't use them against us while his doom was approaching and his country invaded proves that he's no threat. Heck, maybe he deservers the nobel prize for that one

Let me remind you that we've got satelittes who detect underground labs in North Korea, we've got machines in South Korea that detected enriched uranium in North Korea.

If Saddam was a threat he wouldn't have been invaded. Stop hiding your head in the sand.

"Words" as far as Bush is concerned are meaningless - whether he "said" this or that is totally irrelevant within this Admin. It is an Admin based on lies - from all angles. There is NO DOUBT of the attitudes and opinions of this current Admin. This are been clearly stated on many occasions.

They are also a little "smarter" than state outright lies, (tho that has lapsed at times). The technique is "suggest" and repeat the same old cliches in the hope that they will stick. That is not honest - it is lying - especially when there is no foundation.

But, as you have said many times, the US government will continue to do what they need to do (whatever the hell that means! *g*)

If you must - carry on supporting "George-Pass-The-Buck-Dubya"- this person has no honor or credibility. US people deserve a LOAD better than having this ass as a 'leader".

I guess the argument breaks to down to this... If you think the adminstration is lying or not. I don't see what they have to lie about. Do you think, they lied about the war in Iraq because it was such a great political thing to do? they guy had a 75% approval raiting after 911 all he had to do was ride that out if he just wanted to remain elected.

What American agenda was there? What interests? in freeing people? You honestly believe that? No, actually, you don't... because you implied that there was more in your post.

As for the UN Sanctions.... the UN said they found nothing and told the US to stay out. You should reconsider your posts before you make them.

No, the American Agenda was getting rid of a hostile regime that aided terrorist against the U.S. We really have no more interests then that. That is why we are turning the country over to Iraqi's that want to live in peace in the next few years.

The U.N really found nothing huh? 20 sanctions on nothing. You really believe this? Or could this be it the U.N. he had stuff but he's paid enough of them off (France, Germany, Russia) with the money for oil program that the U.N was giving him a pass.

By the I can prove my statements with verified research.. Can you prove yours?

This converstaion isn't about North Korea its about Iraq. But since you brought it up.. As the president said last night war isnt the first option it's the last option. There were no other options left in Iraq. (If you have some please post them becuase I didn't see any)

North Korea is different people with more knowledge then you or I on the subject think there are ways to handle this diplomatically. It is a totally different situation. There arent 20 U.N. Sanctions against North Korea. Additionaly, China, Russia, and Japan all are neighbors of North Korea. Which provides some leverage in our favor. In Iraq you had Iran and Saudia Arabia neither with a leverage on Saddam or Iraq. But, you want to debate what should be done in North Korea we could.

Again, go re-read the U.N's decisions. America never asked permission to invade Iraq. We just asked the U.N. to back up their sanctions which they wouldnt. Do to 3 of the veto's being on the take from Iraq.

By the way, MaskedMan, this could be why you are considered "anti-american" you spread miss-information and propaganda against the U.S. It would be one thing if you had facts to spread. You don't have to favor every American decision but at least have facts why. Not just lies and exaggerations and miss-truths. Especially if you are going to take it to a public forum.

Is that so? I recall Saddam sending an envoy to tell the US that he'll even allow US troops in to inspect the country for WMD's. Not to mention that the UN inspectors where already in Iraq.
No options left in Iraq? How is that? The guy obviously was not even close to a threat, heck Powell on February 2001 said that Saddam isn't able to threaten any of his neighbours even with conventional weapons.

Really? Well we obviously invaded Iraq and are struggling in there, this might very well give ideas to a guy who's much more powerfull than Saddam. Bush is making the US look weak.
What leverage? Kim Jong Il doesn't really listen to anyone.

The report that I heard was he was going to thank the Chinese. Iraqi "freedom" is only a by product of the reason/reasons for the invasion of Iraq. It is first and foremost for what is perceived to be for the National Interests of the US and as a by product the interests of the Western world in general.

You don't get it do you. The U.N. negotiated with Saddam for what 12 years? Where did it get them? France, Gmerany, and Russia made some money from the oil i guess. North Korea is a threat I agree but lets not jump the gun and goto war. Let's try to solve it diplomatically. Are you that blind that the only difference you see between North Korea and Iraq is level of power?

You seem to have the impression Bush is a war mongerer. Simply, it is not true. Do not confuse the will to fight for being a war mongerer. Bush isn't going out of his way to create wars he didn't ask Al Queda to start the war. Nor did he ask Saddam to laugh at the U.N. Sactions. They both did that on their own and now are paying the price.

Mr. Cheney told President Hu Jintao and other top leaders that the United States remained committed to six-nation talks that have met twice under Chinese auspices, so far without tangible progress, to find a solution to the nuclear standoff. But he stressed that the talks must show "real results" soon, without setting a timetable.

"It is important to stay engaged and to make progress," the senior official said. "But we need to keep in mind that we need results and that they are developing nuclear weapons as we deliberate."

You obviously don't read so well. North Korea is a threat and probably a bigger threat then Iraq. Butt, it is not a dick measuring contest. Simple, the adminstration is looking to solve the problem the best way possible which is not force. Unfortunatly, sometimes force is the only option. We have not exhausted all other possiblities with North Korea like we had with Iraq.

Just because he thinks they are evil doesnt mean he wants to goto war. Why you think this is beyond me. All evidence shows contrary. Do not get me wrong. Bush would not hesitate to user force if the situation demanded it. Which is why he has my vote. Because he realizes that sometimes there are no other options. But he doesnt use force without exhausting all other plausible options.

But what most people fail to realize posting about the US being murderers is that we ALL have blood on our hands in Iraq. Any country that is a member of the UN is to blame for countless citizens dying from starvation, disease from lack of medicine, etc.

The US may have killed thousands of Iraqi civilians during the last year but we all are responsible for 100 times the deaths before they even set foot in the country.

Everyone has blood on our hands. And shame on all of us for that. NOONE is holier than thou here and if you think you are, look at the last 20 years.

In the last 20 years, it was the US that gave Saddam the WMD's and weapons and gave him the power he had.

Anyway, I never once questioned whether or not he should be removed from power. As I said from the start, had they come straight out and said they were going in to remove a tyrrant, then my stance would be different. But that wasn't the reason given at the time.

North Korea is a threat I agree but lets not jump the gun and goto war. Let's try to solve it diplomatically. Are you that blind that the only difference you see between North Korea and Iraq is level of power?

Where did it get them? Obviously far enough since he doesn't have WMD's.

I believe a diplomatic solution with North Korea was tried before. Besides, Bush is the one who went on and on about how the world should be free from tyrants and how he's gonna change the world because he's on a mission from God.

All of a sudden it's okay to have a dictator who terrorises his people as long as he's leaving us alone? Just doesn't exactly fit with his vision to rid the world of tyrants.

Unless it's in your favor, inwhich case it's 100% proof positive that what you say must be correct.

I mean "you" rhetorically, not you specifically. I know a lot of people on both sides of the fence that use news link to back up arguments.... and the other side always laughs at it, then posts links of their own.

You don't have to favor every American decision but at least have facts why. Not just lies and exaggerations and miss-truths. Especially if you are going to take it to a public forum. __________________ IcooCash - DVD Content for your TGP Cheap FreeBSD Virtual Hosting ICQ me at 605104 for Custom PHP/MySQL Programming

But what most people fail to realize posting about the US being murderers is that we ALL have blood on our hands in Iraq. Any country that is a member of the UN is to blame for countless citizens dying from starvation, disease from lack of medicine, etc. The US may have killed thousands of Iraqi civilians during the last year but we all are responsible for 100 times the deaths before they even set foot in the country. Everyone has blood on our hands. And shame on all of us for that. NOONE is holier than thou here and if you think you are, look at the last 20 years. __________________ Penis Pill Sponsor List and Reviews: http://www.pillsponsors.com
