Quoting teaschip: Quoting aenigma x: Quoting teaschip: Yes, libralady I happen to agree. You mention democracy, I saw the reaction of many of the Iraqi people when the verdict was read. This was enough for me to believe that some of the Iraqi's want democracy in their country. I also saw how many people turned out to vote, a freedom they never had before. I happen to agree that you cannot force democracy onto a nation. However, when people get a taste of freedom, they usually don't turn back otherwise. |
Dont you realise how antagonistic this is, Teaschip? Did the Iraqi people ASK for this? Do you imagine for one minute that they have "freedom" now?
The US are NOT the world police. |
It takes years to reform a country, it doesn't happen overnight. And yes, many of the Iraqi people did ask for this, however it just so happened that our countries were the only ones to take notice and listen. I realize there is alot of controversy, whether we should be there or not. However, I still take the stand of supporting our troops. Obviously, you differ and your entitled to your own opinion. We can agree to disagree on this. Again, wasn't this topic about Saddam's sentensing? Yet again, America takes the heat. Let me ask you this, should we have just minded our own business and left Saddam in power to continue to kill and reign over the Iraqi people? hmm |
How is supporting our troops...sending them into a poorly planned military operation based on faulty intelligence? And then watching as they come home one by one in body bags with no real exit plan in sight? Sounds to me like that's military suicide. I support them by asking Pres. Bush to bring them home and STOP involving our country in military actions that bring nothing but death and destruction. Maybe you are reading different newspapers and watching different news than me..but it looks like Iraq is hell on earth now and maybe worse than before. No disrespect to the people living there, I am sure they are wonderful people put into a tough situation by political gaming.

I have a brilliant idea, since the U.S. is doing such a terrible job in Iraq. Then why don't you tell me how you would improve things. Please share with me how you would resolve and help this country? So,what is the solution then. Please, I can't wait to hear?

We shouldn’t have created this mess in the first place Teaschip – surely even you can see that?
You, rather sanctimoniously, suggested earlier that this war as been for the benefit of the Iraqi people, to give them democracy. The US and UK are hardly good examples of that are they?
Blair went against many of his cabinet and our elected MPs to support Bush. Many senior members of his party resigned because of his decision, but he did it anyway.
Only a cursory glance at the handling of the last US Presidential elections will show you that “democracy†depends on money and how many corrupt officials you befriend. It is just dictatorship with a fancy name…

Zimbabwe is a fellow member of the Commonwealth of Nations. As long as it has the support of some members there is very little that can be done.

Joey, it's almost point less to have a real debate here. Because first you need knowledge and facts about politics, world events & history. Which I'm finding very difficult for some people to discuss here. You seem to have a good deal of knowledge though, found your post interesting. Thanks for the enlightment

Quoting teaschip: Today is a divine justice for the Iraqi people. Saddam got what he deserved for the crimes against humanity committed during years of brutal dictatorship. He sent millions of people to their deaths. And you ask is there any benefit to kill Saddam? I think this is better answered by the Iraqi people who's children, husbands, wifes, parents, brothers, sisters, uncles, aunts, grandparents who were murdered by Saddams reign. In my opinion Saddam and Hitler can rot in hell together and compare notes. Justice has finally been served! |
i really think which day will be a divine justice for the U.S Politicians.Saddam got what he deserved and what will U.S politicians deserve for these dyings in iraq? Giving freedome a country didnt have to be like that.didnt U.s killed ppl in hiroshima and negazaki.who sentenced them to death.i dont appriciate Saddam.i know what kind of man who is.he really deserved this.but i am asking you teaschip.everyday alot of ppl are dying with the freedome which you gave them in iraq.everyday children, husbands, wifes, parents, brothers are still dying in iraq.do u know this?what did U.S prevent in iraq.just read what u wrote and realize the massacre u are doing in iraq......

You speak of Nth. Korea,the Americans suffered heavy casualties protecting the south when they were invaded by the north in the 1950's and look at the difference between the two countries now.As for invading Japan looking at the number of japanese cars on our roads I think the opposite is true
