Bye bye Saddam!

Sara,

NOWHERE in this thread did I make any comments about any justification for the invasions of Iraq.

Ditto for 9/11 being Iraq's fault.

I was responding to the theory that Saddam's death will make the US more hated in the region, which is basically impossible. They have hated us for decades, will continue to hate us, and it really doesn't bloody well matter what we do.

Then why...why did you bring up 9/11?

You accused me of being illogical. That is the pot calling the kettle black.

The Barbary Wars....very real but let's try some more recent history...else we have to add Britain, Germany, Japan, etc.

We were attacked by a group of men from Afganistan and Saudi Arabia...so...according to what you said....we invaded a country. (looks like them???? speaks the same language??? same part of the world) 'cause we were mad as hell and not going to take it anymore?????) Does it matter WHAT country?

Like so many...you are ready to throw 9/11 into the discussion whether it is relevant or not.

I again say...defeatist....

(but as long as I don't say it for more than...what is it...3 minutes...it is not a personal attack.... )

Not if it isn't thirsty.......

(what...you think you are the only one who can make innane comments??? )

And far more...Rushian...would be to use the Dorothy Parker version of the quote!

If we really want to get technical, there hasn't been peace in the Middle East in THOUSANDS of years. And honestly, has there ever been a time in U.S. History where the Middle East hasn't had issues with us? And now it's mostly the fruit loop extremists in Iraq that have trouble with us.

As far as Saddam, I don't think that hanging him is going to do anymore damage than has already been done. But, I will say that they better have a pretty big fire going in that cauldron in hell to burn that man's ego.

I think he should have been snuffed out WAY sooner than this. During the first year or so of the war, we had far more Iraqi support than we do now, now the majority of Iraqis want British and American troops out. I really don't think they have any more faith in us than they did in Saddam. It's too little too late in my mind, but I suppose at least an end to an evil, cruel man.

whether it is relevant or not.

You know it's a relevant if it has tusks, big ears and wrinkly skin.

For the record....

I brought up 9/11....actually It was 9/10.

I don't wanna get involved in a fight ... but wouldn't you think that hanging Saddam would get America more enemies. I mean, I think America has enough enemies from over there.

[Pawsitive Thinking]

My money is on it never actually happening.....

For example...

Look at what the women's soccer teams did to the world....

[lvpets2002]

Now thats a good one Richard I myself tend to aggree with Brody's Mum I dont think there will be a hanging .. Now what makes me sick is how Saddam wont be man & take his deserved punishment & is still crawling like a snake ..

For example...
