Thread Name: BS: Why Bush is in Iraq/the real reason
Subject: RE: BS: Why Bush is in Iraq/the real reason
Why does everyone keep ignoring the fact that the UNSC resolutuin that sent us into Kuwait after it was invadedDID NOT include anything about overthrowing Saddam? If we had gone on to Baghdad we would have been acting outside the mandate. So that was not a failure on the part of Bush 41 but of the UNSC for not authorizing the action. Thomas, if you think that peaceful diplomacy would work with Saddam, how many decades should it go on before it finally becomes a reality? How many more of his own people are you willing to see killed by Saddams thugs before you realize that you cannot negotiate with a man like that? As far as the article goes, if it is true, how do all of you feel about the US economy going down the tubes? Do you even vaguely realize what that would mean to the average citizen? Do you know what it would do to the rest of the worlds economies? Do you hate George Bush so much that you would sacrifice everything we have to see him fail? Because thats kinda what I get out of this article; if the war effort fails, our economy is kaput.
