but back on topic, you're right -- we're not at war yet however, it seems inevitable, and regrettable btw, I may not agree with some of what you say, but I always truly enjoy reading your posts

Where do you think the CIA gets its information... the Internet. It's people like you for whom the phrase "ugly american" was coined.

We do get involved, you've stated several times how America becomes involved with the worlds problems at the request of other nations................because we make a decisive stance, to help a country in need, first and then ask for America's aid does that put us in the wrong?........no we make the moves first to help people........if you have a problem with america becoming involved, take it up with your politician. |

He has not DIRECTLY attacked America - but once he has the weapons he WILL attack others or sell them to terrorists. Whether you agree or not - those are my feelings. I believe I have stated them through this thread. Maybe not as straigtforward as I have there - but that is how I feel. Iraq hadn't attacked the US before the Gulf war either - as Sween had pointed out. No one seems to be questioning our use of force there. So asking the question of whether Iraq has attacked America is unfair. Does Iraq pose a POTENTIAL threat to America and world peace would be a better question. And the answer to that is YES.

To be honest you are confusing me JD.........you stated earlier that you would like to see Europe pay back what "it owes" after the Marshall Plan (the great fiasco of insuring that Europe traded with America instead of the communist block IMO)...........yet you state later in the thread that another, modern day Marshall Plan (the plan that fed the horse after it had been starved IMO) should be implemented ..........do you feel that the American public would support the government rebuilding the Middle-East at the cost of the taxpayer?............you have already stated several times that you feel America should look after its own interests first |

Iraq poses a potential threat to the US but so do alot of other countries. Come to think of it, so does New Zealand for that matter, ya know, since we're anti-nuclear. Quote:
