Well...as I have pointed out and as you have chosen to ignore...that "international community" viewed Iraq as being a threat for 12 years...thus the sanctions (that may have caused the death of up to 1,000,000 "innocent" Iraqi's) and the 17 Resolutions imposed against Iraq by the UN.

That is a loss of approximately 80,000 "innocent" Iraqi lives per year caused by the the UN. Since the invasion the US has convinced the UN to drop the sanctions...and if the loss of lives due to combat action on either side...falls short of about 80,000 per year (and at this point it is way below 80,000 per year) then in fact the invasion has thus far saved Iraqi lives.

There is currently more hospitals...with more medical equipment and supplies...pre invasion. There is currently more drinkable water in more locations than pre invasion... and as far as I know food is plentiful.

Thus I conclude that the Iraqi people owe the US much gratitude for saving them from the yoke the UN had imposed upon them.

I forgot to mention...more electricity is available in most locations...than pre invasion. In addition...more and better schools...than pre invasion. Yes indeed...they owe a debt of gratitude to the US...for removing the opressive yoke that the UN had imposed on them for 12 years,

... seriously, one individual can't be that fucking dumb just by himself. did you get a hand from your hometown when posting this shit ??

wow, and to think for all this time everyone thought the UN were the good guys.

The electricity was fine before USA dropped a shitload of bomb's against their better judgement and took out all the power grids. yes, they may owe a debt of gratitude, but USA owes even a bigger apology. Bullying another country and giving the finger to the rest of the world really has made USA and Bush appear as bad as terrorists, but thanks to Bush - you guys are way in over your heads in debt that you are not going to be able to get out of. congradulations, pretty soon you'll be the third world country and will be like Iraq pre invasion.

:1orglaugh so sad but true

Only one answer to a stupid drunk declaration by TheKing:

PIGSHIT

Yeah, Things are going very very well in iraq. You should move there with your family.

key word here.... 'invasion'

justify it how you wish, an invasion is still an invasion.

what a fucktard.

:1orglaugh

So true!

Another political thread... people always go to far right or to far left :2 cents:

so true :thumbsup

Hasn't been that long since I heard a news report the electricity infrastructure over there is abysmal.

That is because people that have strong views are the ones mostly likey to feel confident enough to argue a case. Middle of the road people just tend to muddle through it without really wanted to stick their neck out.

:winkwink: ordered last night

You are very smart. Want to do my taxes?

You must have been eating spacecake while watching Fox news

"Iraqi's owe much gratitude to the US"

Yup, and they will pay it back greatly with their natural resources. :winkwink:

US has always been an expert on making war profit

Where do you get your info from? CNN?

I also forgot to mention that Iraqi's are now allowed to practice religious ceremonies that was denied to them during Saddam's tenure. In addition Iraqi's now have freedom of speech...freedom of the press (it is my understanding that there are a ton of news papers in business)...instead of state controlled news media. Also they now have satalite dishes...access to the internet...more cars are on the roads than pre invasion.

Yes...the Iraqi's owe much gratitude to the US for not only removing the oppresive yoke the UN had imposed on them for 12 years...but also for removing the oppressive yoke of Saddam and his Baathist party.

And freedom to kill as many Americans as they can.

Tis true. The majority of Iraq is thankful for the ousting of Hussein by the Coalition Forces. Unfortunately, Iraq is comprised of numerous religous and political factions (not to mention barbaric insurgents) who are all vying for power and control of the country. It's the closest thing to civil war over there right now without actually calling it a civil war.

If we (the US, UK, Italia, etc.) leave now - full blown civil war would certainly break out, not to mention genocide.

More deaths and car bombs are available too!
It's so great that they built a few schools so that a few kids brave enuf to go out can sit in the class room and wait for the teacher to show and teach them why they should hate the U.S.!

:1orglaugh no kidding

First we starve you with sanctions.
Second we make up a story about WMD's
Third we invade and drop bombs on you
Fourth we'll install a government for you (puppet)
Fifth we will seize your only cash crop, oil

Now you should thank us.

If the same thing happened to us we'd be pissed. If Europe decided the US was a threat and invaded us and removed Bush, installed their own President for us, killed innocent Americans in the process, and took ownership of every McDonald's I'm sure we'd be happy about it. lol

hehehe that's crazy:1orglaugh

We could learn a thing or two from Saddam. He was actually able to keep all these factions from killing each other and from killing him, even though they hated him.

Oh yeah..more ceremonies where they can hate the US!
Yep..that's what Iraq needs..more Mullahs out there recruiting their own militias!

Hey..they ARE greatful for that!

Together the US and the UN decided Iraq was a threat, lol. The UN is as impotent as my 100 year old grandfather. We went to war without the UN's approval and without Congress declaring war. The UN can't do jack about it. In one full swoop America made the UN explicitly irrelevant (it was always irrelevant, but now it's clear for everybody to see).

Actually, a dictator who forces you to love him, or he'll kill you... is still a loved dictator.

The methods are questionable, but they still loved him. That's kinda how a dictator works.

Take him away, and you get what's happening now... whether the rest of the world loved or hated him, doesn't matter to them.

That was a stunning reply. Your arguments are air tight! :thumbsup

this war is fucking pointless, radiation from bombs is killing and deforming thousands, cancer rate is up like some 600%, waste of money and human life, fuck george bush

That's not a slippery slope or anything.

Please provide some proof that we've stolen any oil. Otherwise your naked assertion falls flat on its face.

and the FIRST reason we went to war was becuz we were in immediate threat from WMD wich powell in early 2001 said didnt exist, now bush claims were 'liberating" iraq, no WMD, iraq is a terrorist haven, the january elections are bull shit and wont happen successfully, bush lies and theking believes the coke head

No declaration of war was needed because the first gulf war never ended, we were just in a period of cease fire. Of course, during that cease fire Saddam saw fit to regularly shoot at our military with his toys. IMHO, that's enough reason to go take his ass out.

So far there has not been squat for a counter argument to the original post, just a bunch of name calling, which is the refuge of those who have no argument.

When you have the truth, pound the truth.
When you have the facts, pound the facts.
When you have neither the truth nor the facts, pound the table.
