"Apparently, the majority of the people and countries in the world disagree with you."

And as we know, the majority are always right.

They have more ulterior motives for being against the war than Bush has for being for it. For a start, anti-Americanism.

No, it means Christianity is wrong, because 4 billion people disagree with it.

But, as Sava said, where did you get that number?

If you are following the anti-war movement merely for the sole reason that more people are on that side than the pro-war movement, then i am sorry for you.

Evidently you haven't been paying attention on 'Poly as of late.

No, but you are always wrong.

Even the millions of people in the US who marched against the war?

'just because a million fools believe something foolish, it does not mean that it is now unfoolish'



(not saying yall are foolish for y'alls beliefs, on contrary, i know yall are all very intellegent. just the word fool is how the quote goes)

Anti-Bush.

Anti-Americanism.

Pretty much the same thing at the moment.

here you go:

What is the most popular religion in the world?
With over 1.1 billion adherents, Islam is the world's most popular single religion.
Following Islam, Catholicism, Hinduism, Protestantism, and Buddhism round out the top five.

However, there are almost 2 billion Christians in the world - divided into several subsets of Christianity.

Almost one billion people (one-sixth the world's population) are agnostic, atheists, or indifferent to religion.

I love quote wars.

with that logic, all religions are wrong (which is fine with me, i just came to a similar conclusion with less flawed logic).

no, not really. i got sick of these iraq threads for awhile. I dunno why i came back to it, really. no body changes anybodys' mind, and they just brood harsh feelings, it seems.

I half recall that Georing at least twice promised Hitler something that he could not produce: air suppremacy in the Battle of Britain and the resupply the surrounded army in Stalingrad.

IIRC Georing also promised Hitler that the Luffwaffa could destroy the allied troops trapped in the Dunkirk pocket. Hitler halted the panzer and wermarch divisions. The net result, of course, were the 300,000 plus evacuees that escaped rather than surrendered.

Insofar as I'm concerned, *both* sides in the debate regarding Iraq have made valid points. But neither side seems to understand a fundamental fact, and that is this:

No matter what happens in Iraq — whether we go to war with them, or stick with increasingly-ineffective sanctions and diplomatic solutions that leave Saddam in power — people will die. Innocent people. There are no ifs, ands or buts. People will die. All that matters is when and how they will die. Should war break out, they will die in a matter of weeks, maybe months. Should war never materialize, and Saddam remains in power, they will continue to die as they have since the day Saddam took power so long ago, victims of his secret police, of his purges, of his wars, and whatnot.

There appears to be no solution where lives are spared. Both sides in this debate should agree on that, because it's cold, hard reality.

About the only "silver lining" I can see in war is that death would come soon for some, but might bode for a brighter future for the survivors, whereas the scenario where Saddam remains in power bodes only years and years of gradual torture and death for many.
