i do agree that saddam has to go but i dont see the urgency, and i dont know if starting a war is a good idea. the other side of the coin is the the iraqis are being dumb, they could have made recepits that said they threw everything away and then we wouldnt have a leg to stand on. my friend raised the interesting point, how come we get to tell everyone what to do? its really no different than the city telling me i cant park my cars on my property (they did do that)

i'm pretty much with sunshine, leave them be... but that essentially means let the UN deal with it... why those two options are different I don't know.
The UN must enforce it's rules, but the US is pushing for war, UN would just continue it's inspections and do it's best to make sure iraq complies.
US just wants war, bush is an oil tycoon, iraq has oil. I wonder where bush's campain funding came from, wouldnt happen to be oil companies?
all this terrorist crap is propaganda imo, a terrorist is essentially a armed activist, an activist that has been ignored and pushed too far. These people have something motivating them, it's likely our governements actions. The ignorant people will just say their evil, those same people likely believe churches shouldnt be taxed too. theres corruption everywhere, just wish the US people would stop pretending to be asleep.

I'd rather no risk the lives of our soldiers, and the innocent here in the states (terrorism) just so Bush can get a hard-on.
We follow the rules. We could just as easily send people to school there and learn to fly, and then smack a plane into someones hose or whatever... Nut we DON'T. **** them. **** them all. They will burn... one day they will burn.

i was gonna vote go to war but clicked the null vote button.
personally i think everyone in the middle east needs to realize if they werent out to get us we wouldnt be out to get them. What are we supposed to do when people come crying to us.
However i also strongly support going back to, what i believe was, the monroe doctrine. CLose ourselves in, reinvent our nation and pay our debts, stop saving countries and just become a self-reliant bubble of a country.
