I told you so. Iraq now belongs to Iran.
 

We still haven't caught the fanatic Osama...
- the man who was responsible for 9/11
- a man demanding Islamic Law in all arab/muslim states
- who wants all power in the hands of Islamic clerics
- who hated the secular regime of Saddam
calling him an "Infidel" and a "Bad Muslim"
- who had been calling for Saddam to be overthrown

:ugone2far

But we got rid of the secular Saddam...
- a man who embraced western culture
- a man who was our ally until Bush Sr doublecrossed him
- a man who fought against Iran and Islamic fundamentalists
- demonized for killing the same types of people we're killing now
- someone with nothing to gain from another fight with the USA


GW Bush makes vague allusions that these two ideological enemys are somehow working together? WTF! ... completely absurd ... but americans are too poorly educated to understand why that's a ridiculous premise.

:ugone2far

With Saddam gone, the extremely religious majority of the population in Iraq are now "free" . . . . free to set up their own Islamic State. (Saddam was the only obstacle to this) "Democracy" in Iraq means another nation of religious nuts voting their even more insane religious leaders into power. When a citizenship is culturally ready for real freedom, they'll have their own revolution (like we did).

Who really has the power in Iraq is perfectly demonstrated by the Al-Sadr standoff in Najaf. The BS puppet Iraq government can't do anything about it - but as soon as the Holiest Of Holy Cleric tells them to cease fire, everyone obeys. Al-Sadr and/or his nominees will be appointed upon the first election and then Iraq will belong to Islam. Iraq will ally with Iran and be protected by Irans shiny new nukes. Iran in exchange for protection and/or proliferation of WMD then gains control of Iraqs oil reserves.

:ugone2far

This is the legacy of George W Bush.
Treason? I think so.
Bad news for America? absolutely.

Knocking down the WTC was NOT Osamas goal.
It was simply a tactic. And thanks to GW, he won the game.
Osama says thank you, and "four more years". :321GFY

:sleep :sleep :sleep :sleep :sleep :sleep

I don't agree with that.
Maybe I am naive.

Let the voice of peace (global information/opinion) do it's magic.
There will be some bumps - but eventually they will get there.

yep its all fucked up :(

Thank God the President of The United States can only be elected by Americans, not misinformed, misguided, Canadians and Europeans "who would have us believe that Saddam's Iraq was an oasis of peace when in fact it was a place of indescribable cruelty, torture chambers, mass graves and prisons that destroyed the lives of the small children held inside their walls." (Props to you for that help Mr. John McCain ;-) )

" a man who was our ally until Bush Sr doublecrossed him"

I guess you forgot about the invasion of Kuwait, which is an ally. There was no doublecross involved in that.

I tried to tell people that Saddam was keeping his thumb on things over there. Everybody always looked at me like I had two heads.

iran rulz :thumbsup

Saddam asked our permission. We said we had "no opinion". He went ahead with military action. Bush Sr doublecrossed him for economic and political gain.

Really? Bush Sr doublecrossed him! OMG! I haven't heard this theory yet....Been talking to Michael Moore? tell him I said whattup Fatty :-)

I am American.

I don't care if Saddam killed or tortured islamic fundamentalists. If he hadn't been brutal, they would have taken power. As we are learning, it's hard to keep these psychos under control. He also gassed the kurds (a group of religious radicals trying to start a civil war and claim land they have no historic right to) while busy battling Iran.

When thinking strategically, you cannot afford to cry over individuals. I'm sure innocents suffered. However that has nothing to do with what is in the best interests of America.

Thanks to GW Bush, in the absence of someone as tough on the clerics as Saddam, soon we will be facing a United Islamic States who will be governed by the most fundamental anti-western extremist religious leaders - who will control almost all of the worlds oil and share a nuclear arsenal.

i bet you dont shave your pits

cough cough, pull up a search engine and do some reading

WASHINGTON, Sept. 22 -- On July 25,President Saddam Hussein of Iraq summoned the United States Ambassador to Baghdad, April Glaspie, to his office in the last high-level contact between the two Governments before the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait on Aug. 2. Here are excerpts from a document described by Iraqi Government officials as a transcript of the meeting, which also included the Iraqi Foreign Minister, Tariq Aziz. A copy was provided to The New York Times by ABC News, which translated from the Arabic. The State Department has declined to comment on its accuracy.

Republicans don't read, they just parrot

the story continued:

And Democrats don't research, they just "theorize" (Michael Moore, cough cough)

1000 American soldiers dead so that we could give Iraq to the enemy (the jihadists of Islam)
Your president is Osama Bin Laden's fairy fucking godmother. Like a genie granting wishes.

Misinformed, misguided, mislead Europeans/Canadians, gotta' love em :BangBang:

She's American, dimwit... and far from misinformed. Which, for an American, is quite rare.

CamChick

You are absolutely right. You are one of the few well read intelligent people I have seen on this board. Good for you. You really put a smile on my face today :)

Are you a camchick? what do you do? send me an ICQ at 197399178

Iran is only a forced march North for a regime change themselves.

Not to mention the Jews are probably preparing now to bomb them to the stone age.

Thank you GFY nerd.. this place is one big highschool for christ sakes, hey guess what, HIGH SCHOOL is over...U don't have to be in a big popular group anymore and try to fit in! YOUR FREE! YOUR FREE!!!

Not if you live in America

She's right. Iran was one of the first countries to flood Iraq with agents. I bet the Marines were even fighting some of the Iranian Army regulars. :(

yep

I haven't seen high school since I left in 1988, shit for brains.

But thanks for caring.

Well I graduated in '99...I'm younger than you, and I work for myself, not some company in a corporate building....So I think that means I Own you doesn't it????



-Young and living Crazy

Not to split hairs here because I agree with you about most of your points. The Kurds do have some historical rights to slices of Turkey, Iran, Iraq, and Syria. They were just left out of the country carving back in the day because they are fairly nomadic people. It was easy to step on them.

nothing like fresh propoganda :)

I predict that Iran will attack Iraq (Either real or staged) and the USA will have to rush to the defense of their friends Iraq.

While the USA is assaulting their troops from the air, the Jews fly in quietly and bomb the shit out of their Nuclear facilities.

So how come you still speak and think like a child?

What makes you think you know what I do for a living, boy?

Great post. I actually believed Bush senior did the right thing in that war. Now I need to go do some new research and re-evaluate my position about it.

Attack of the ZOOMMMBIESS..... ZOMBIESS

Don't you just love it when left wingers call others stupid.

:1orglaugh

How ironic.

Well, even as a right-winger you've gotta admit that this crowkid is a grade A moron :Graucho

Can be! If the Iraqi's prefer to deal with Iran - that's their decision.

That's what is called "democracy" - tho Iraq sure won't have that till there is an election and a valid government. Meanwhile, it's called an "occupation".

You're the one doing the attacking and are so mindless you won't re-evaluate what you believe based on new information. Sooooooo.. was that actually a statement of your life moto??
