[QUOTE]Originally posted by First of Two: [QB] [QUOTE]I don't think the Iraqis would react like that in any way. They didn't suffer a terrible six-year war their dictator had started in a mad conquest for territory and power. [/QUOTE]That's exactly what the Iran-Iraq war was... except it was a 10 year war. [QUOTE]Well, in this case, the US is the country which gave weapons to Saddam to keep him in power. The US is the country which did nothing when Saddam bombed and massacred his own citizens with the "weapons of mass destruction" our hypocritical conservative leaders now harp on with the bullshit "for the good of the world" that clearly they don't give a shit about. Even when the US went to war with Iraq, we left Saddam in power, gave Saddam the ability to put down the insurrection in the north of the country (despite our promises for support), and were responsible for an embargo which starved hundreds of thousands of Iraqis for a dozen years. [/QUOTE]Hey Snay, are you ever going to mention the other dozen or so countries which sold/gave arms to Iraq? Or are you going to keep up this charade? I mean, there's very little equipment now in the Iraqi military which could be considered US material. The vast majority of it is Russian or French. Are you going to list the countries which DID do something when Saddam was massacring his own people? Are you going to name the countries who asked the US to leave Hussein in power? (Here's a hint: one speaks French, one speaks French and English, and the last is the country we were launching most of the attacks from) And are you going to mention that there was more than enough money flowing into Iraq under the oil-for-food / medicine program to take care of the Iraqis, only it got diverted into Saddam's palace-building program (and who knows what else). You're too smart to resort to such blatant misrepresentation of the facts. [/QB][/QUOTE]
