Thread Name: BS: Saddam Will Rise Again
Subject: RE: BS: Saddam Will Rise Again
Bobert---asking the question of iraqis "Would you like Saddam to make a comeback?" after all that has transpired over there is just about the outer limit of vacuous inquiry that anybody could imagine---perhaps except for those "fly-guys" who stand to gain propaganda points from the obvious answer. Few there are who would deny that the man was a ratbag. Those few are only SOME of the "insurgents" who are now involved in the everlasting fight against occupying coalition forces and those whom they see [not always correctly] as collaborators. Ask Teribus what his guess would be at the answer to the question "Would you like us to get rid of Saddam for you, at the expense of the lives of many thousands of Iraqi men, women and children?"--such question being asked BEFORE the beginning of the debacle? I suggest that then the reply would be radically different!
It's all "pie in the sky" anyway; the Bush-Tony crew had NO interest in "liberating " the Iraqi people. The real reason lies --as always, and never let constant lie-repetition blind you---in the desperate need for control over oil resource. That was the reason in the beginning, and it hasn't changed. I'd have more respect for those who are pro war if they'd at least admit that simple truth.
