i still don't understand why wolf said it was about security reasons.

It's pretty simple, really. They went against us on what we stated was a big security issue. It's not in our security interest to encourage that kind of behavior.I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891 -
That's hardly a discouragement either.
As I said internal consumption.Comment

Remember, M. Wolfowitz does not give reasons false, true, in-between or whatever, he gives bureaucratic reasons, easily acceptable by all parties (no need to be relevant or clearly connected).Originally posted by paiktis22
2) The reason given is false.
Statistical anomaly.

Wolfowitz is very warhawkish. Hilariously enough he is as much inept in foreign relations. Maybe that's not an accident.Comment

whether it was a security issue or not was the crux of the debate, wasn't it?B♭3Comment

Well, we have consistently stated that Iraq was an important security issue. So it is.whether it was a security issue or not was the crux of the debate, wasn't it?I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter.

america doesn't exactly have fiat, you know? perhaps it was to us. i'm still not completely convinced of that.
obviously, europeans saw things a bit differently.B♭3Comment
-
I don't think Europeans can decide whether or not a situation is an important security issue to the US. That's probably best left to the US.Comment
-
I don't see why especially if it affects anyone else besides the US.Comment
-
the us should decide what's in its own best interest.
other countries should decide what's best in theirs.
perhaps to them, an attack on iraq was not the wisest nor best cours of action.
is that so hard to see?B♭3Comment

yet another logical breakdown.Comment
-
Wolfowitz' remarks on national security obviously refered back to the US' assertion of Iraq as an important security issue, that's why Europe can't really argue in the context of reconstruction deals that it wasn't.Comment

Again it would have been fine if it had stayed at that declaration. From the moment it wasn't, it can.Comment

I wonder if the excluded countries can sue under the WTO and/or NAFTA (in the case of Canada)?Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...Comment
