I'm here just watching the "logic" of defending the USG by saying they value life too much to do 9/11.
Do you see any "logic" to Usual's claim that the US governement deliberately killed (still ongoing) the workers at ground zero?

If you're going to argue that claim, Usual, you might just as well argue that the government allows the tobacco companies to kill hundreds of thousands of people a year. What's the difference?
Russell:
Where was your outrage when Saddam was killing a million Kurds?
I don't support the quagmire the US is in now, and I don't believe we should have stayed in Iraq an hour after Saddam fell. Their government is THEIR business, not ours.
But Saddam is one of the most evil, if not the most evil, human being now walking the planet and needed to be removed from power.

It wasn't only workers at Ground Zero. They sent people back to their houses. Kids back to school. I know you've seen the news about the nun who is dying. Her name slips my mind right now. They let people go back to lower Manhattan knowing the air was not safe. The EPA/Gov't DELIBERATELY LIED and told this people the air was safe. 100's, even 1.000's will die many years sooner than they would have if the gov't was honest and said don't go back. In my mind every person who dies due to health related reasons from the air quality was/is murdered by the gov't due to that lie. If we don't agree on that so be it. The gov't doesn't gain anything off these death. I used the EPA lie as an example to show just how much the gov't values American human life. Based on what the EPA under order of the gov't can you say the gov't holds American lives as high as you think they do??
If I tell you to cross the street knowing you'll get hit by a car did I not deliberately hurt you??
This did not all start on 911, this has been there for a long time.
He was also that evil in the 80's when Rummy went to meet with him and shake his hand but the U.S. did see the need to take him out of power than.
Correct. At least 70 years:
"Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is to tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country." - Hermann Goering, Nazi leader.
But he hadn't killed the million Kurds yet, then. He only did that after they got uppity after the first Gulf War. The Kurds figured he'd been weakened enough that they could revolt. He hadn't.
Please I don't need history lessons from you. Are you seriously comparing the US to Nazi Germany?
We should've gotten rid of him during the first Gulf War, but the UN resolution didn't authorize us to do it. Damn that pesky international law, always messing up our plans.
If we were so worried about his crimes against humanity we should have removed him in the 80's when we were busy shaking his hand. Your sracasm is about as good as your question with smoking, totally lacking.
There are loads of leaders that commit crimes against humanity but by a strange coincidence its only the ones that live near oil fields that we bother taking out.
