Things Bush apparently doesn't need to attack Iraq

[Chris 62]

You made the accusation, the burden of proof lies with you, dear boy.

[Eli]

Would you stop arguing and attack them already?
I'm gonna lose 50 shekels if there is no attack until the 1st of September. Wimps.

Show me any proof that they did.

Thats like saying you can't prove the US didn't consider invading Canada.

They don't need anybody! Eventually the attack will just be George Bush, Colin Powell, and Bush Senior in a tank in Saudi Arabia, racing towards the Iraqi border.

If Bush attacks Iraq unilaterally, OBL and his ilk win.

After the 9.11 attacks, Defense Secretary Donald
Rumsfeld was questioned on ABC television's “This
Week” show, about the possible use of tactical nuclear
weapons in continued bombing campaigns. Rumsfeld
completely side stepped answering the question

And they will still win.

...the report, which was provided to Congress on Jan. 8, says the Pentagon needs to be prepared to use nuclear weapons against China, Russia, Iraq, North Korea, Iran, Libya and Syria

The US thus has threatened these countries with weapons of mass destruction.

Now, can you find me a similar quote about Iraq that shows they are as big a threat to world peace as the US are?

Funny how our country didn't say too much when Hussein used gas in the late 80's. The enemy of my enemy......

I dont even know what the big stink about Iraq is. We should be more worried about North Korea. Their WMD capabilities are much further along, and they have a greater capability to directly attack the lower 48 than Iraq will ever have. Why does diplomacy seem to be the approach with North Korea, but Hussein is now considered the Hitler of the ME?

[Chris 62]

Could you find a credible source first?

Christos

Last refuge of the lost argument: "credible" source please!

[Chris 62]

Ah, Spinky, proclaiming victory based on nothing.

Still trying the old tricks, are ye?

And I am about fed up with the anti-US sentiment on this board.

If the US was any near as evil as folks here say, we would just subjugate half the world. Some of the posters here are dumbasses.

Give me a break. I'm American. Criticizing the outrageously irresponsible actions of Bush & Co. isn't attacking the Unites States. It's attacking Bush doctrine, which I find deplorable.

I am pro-America, anti-current stupid American regime. As much as you might want Bush to somehow be synonymous with America, he isn't. He's just the current baffoon in charge.

The war on terror is going really badly. The Bush Administration is losing allies left and right.

I take no pleasure from it.
