[QUOTE]Originally posted by Balaam Xumucane: [QB] There's no question that there are some very dangerous radical Islamic extremists and that through acts of terror, some of these groups have demonstrated their total disregard for human life. The thing is that Sadaam, though a certified goat-fucker and cruel Fascist, was not one of these radical Islamic extremists. And much as we'd like to believe he was, he was not the immediate danger and impending threat the United States attempted to make him out to be. And it seems that everyone else already knew/insisted-upon this. And so the US defied the UN (in order to enforce UN resolutions) and in doing so alienated a world which had only recently had our sympathy and support. With the tragic events of 9/11 we had an opportunity to really make our case against the danger of these extremist groups. To form a multi-lateral coordinated world effort to seek out these groups and to undermine and dismantle them. But instead we pursued our own agenda (for entirely selfish purposes). Thereby perfectly demonstrating to the followers of these extremist groups that we are, in fact, as corrupt and horrible as they made us out to be. It would seem that if we'd really wanted to hurt those ideologies, we would have left the regime-toppling at Afghanistan. There is so much we could have done and didn't. There is so much we have done and shouldn't have. It makes me sick to think it. [/QB][/QUOTE]
