    This doesn't have to be discussed here, but I don't believe in the UN, so... However I don't see why they should make Iraq their special target, or why the US should pressure them to do so.

    And I agree Tandy that we should never have entangled ourselves with other nations the way we have. But we cannot ignore present reality and turn back the clock.
    You're right, but we do have to stop doing what was always wrong in the first place. It would difficult to extricate ourselves, but we can't just keep doing the wrong things because we've been doing them for so long. The United States has the ability to change its policies and the world will certainly notice.

    But, I see no solution to this problem without the threat of military action toward those nations that are preparing to threaten innocent civilians.
    The United States has no moral high ground on the issue of killing innocent civilans. Neither does Israel.

    Iraq is not just going to go away.
    Why does it have to?

    It is foolish to think that they just want to live in peace with the world.
    I didn't say that they want to live in peace with the world. But I do think they want to live in peace with the United States, and the US has to look out for the US. And that's it.

    Forsaking Israel is blatant appeasement.
    And not doing it is blatant "we don't want to look like we're appeasing terrorists." Stop letting them affect your positions and just do what is right, regardless of what anyone else thinks.

      Well I think it is right to be friends with Israel.

        The point was, any country in this world probably could get its hands on bio/chem weapon, and any of those countries have a CHANCE of attacking the US just as Iraq does.

        EDIT: Sorry, it's just so easy.

        Hmm... is JT identifying with Fez? Sounds about right to me.

          By the way, I don't like the UN either but I thought that was a good debating point.

            Didn't you agree with me about entangling alliances? I can't imagine one that more accurately fits the bill.

                    Understand? The false argument? The opinion of the leftists? I am sorry but I am in support of the war.

                      I don't think resistance against a war between the US (and some allies) and Iraq is on the rise. What indications of this do we have? Some thousands of protestors in a world of 6 billion people?

                      Fact. As long as Bush sees polls of likely American voters showing a strong support for action in Iraq, he has a strong hand in promising action in Iraq. Only about 1.25% of the world's population has to be for the action for it to take place.
                      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

                          Ah, so......you refuse to accept any point that goes AGAINST the war as any type of arguement....

                          Thank you for quite nicely proving that you are indeed a blind sheep.

                            The point is that people (many from the "peace at any cost crowd") think that the UN is the greatest thing since sliced bread. I was asking those people what the UN should do if that orginization was defied. So far I haven't got an answer.
