Seems B&B tried to pull a fast one on us yesterday with the evidence for an attack on Iraq

http://www.msnbc.com/news/802167.asp

Really makes you wonder if there is so much overwelming evidence that Iraq has to be destroyed why did they come out with some that could be so easily refuted. Why didn't they present the world with positive proof? What is their game? Do they not have recent intelligence? If so, why is it so important they attack now, what has changed?

And I will prognosticize using a quote from the B-52s: "There's a lot of ruins in Mesopotamia."

Remember, "Six or eight thousand years ago, they laid down the law."

and a cnn report said that they couldn't really tell the meaning of what the buildings meant, they said they should wait till the inspectors were looing before making a judgement....

I'd like this "evidence" to be authenticated independently, before jumping to conclusions that could polarize the entire Middle East... you know, determine if there exists a real threat, instead of a carefully fabricated one.

B&B are ruining this war. Nex they'll get the date of the Gulf War wrong, and show people from Iraq before they were discovered! Fuck the pair of them!

Yes, you're despicable, and... and picable... and... and you're definitely, definitely despicable. How a person can get so despicable in one lifetime is beyond me. It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

It would seem rather disingenuous to cite to reports that do not reach the conclusions that you says they do.

The US went from no nuclear program to an atomic bomb in less time than has passed since the UN report was written, much less since the inspections were stopped. And the US started from scratch.

While the Iraqi program was dealt severe losses during and after the Gulf War, this was by no means enought to certainly destroy the program.

The Chipman report substantiates this.

See?
He's got a point. Someone should step in and invade America before those war-mongering savages use those atomic weapons of mass destruction in a terrorist attack on civilians.

Oh, wait.

No, no, no. That was the humanitarian thing to do. Think of the countless lives those attacks saved!

I might put a Captain Mike Moving to Canada clock on my webpage. Between the legalization thing up there and the war-monger asshole from Texas down here, its getting more tempting every day.

Its too bad cuz i really love this city.

Well, he's already got the UK on his side. Usually, the rest of the British Empire follows, so I wouldn't be too sure about Canada. Probably the only reason they aren't completely w/ the US is because we bombed them. And every time Bush calls to apologize, he asks for Prime Minister Poutine.
