As many of you know, I believed the Al-Queda - Iraq link is tenuous at best. It appears I was wrong. <IMG SRC="http://www.swirve.com/iraq.gif"> Bomb Iraq!
In the same vein, I get a kick out of this picture (from the 2/15 protest in London): It'd be funnier if it wasn't so sadly ignorant.
LOL now this one's funny "i've burnt myself several times, but it's not too bad. i'm only burnt about the face breast chest neck and head, but other than that i'm fine"
I like the sign that says, "Saddam only kills his own people. It's none of our business." Yeah...that's really working for peace, pal. wonder how that guy felt about Milosevic...
Those are demonstrators... them making exceptions then saying "War has never solved anything..." that is funny.
I understand that they're demonstrators, I just don't think they're anti-war demonstrators. If so, they're really stupid ones.
We, the German Führer and Chancellor, and the British Prime Minister, have had a further meeting today and are agreed in recognizing that the question of Anglo-German relations is of the first importance for two countries and for Europe. We regard the agreement signed last night and the Anglo-German Naval Agreement as symbolic of the desire of our two peoples never to go to war with one another again. We are resolved that the method of consultation shall be the method adopted to deal with any other questions that may concern our two countries, and we are determined to continue our efforts to remove possible sources of difference, and thus to contribute to assure the peace of Europe. My good friends this is the second time in our history that there has come back from Germany to Downing Street peace with honor. I believe it is peace in our time. --Neville Chamberlain, upon returning to England after the signing of the Munich Agreement, Sept. 30, 1938 I can't imagine the protesters could have picked a worse slogan.
Actually, this is a debatable topic. I mean, if any regime kills its own people, should we be the ones to liberate them, or should we only jump in after they have put the process in motion. I'm not saying yes or no, I just think its a debabtable topic. Milosevic was an "ethnic cleanser", that's a different situation.
i don't see it as different...arguably saddam was engaging in ethnic cleansing when he used nerve gas on the kurds. bottom line, when you turn the gun on your own people and the legitimacy of your government rests on that power, i don't have a problem with involvement to liberate. maybe you do. those feelings are particularly exacerbated when the guy starts trying to roll over other nations like he did kuwait and then defies the terms of his own surrender.
Yeah, Europeans can kill Europeans, and Arabs can kill Arabs, but if Europeans kill Arabs, it is time to act!!
