http://cnn.netscape.cnn.com/news/world2.jsp?floc=NW_3-T That's what it's all about for this juvenile man: "My army can beat up your army!" George inherited his father's bizarre trait of personalising and internalising geo-political disputes.

Alot of people have claimed that Bush went to war because he sincerely believed that Iraq had WMDs. I've been thinking about this lately, and now I think that he knew they didn't have WMDs around late February 2003. He figured out that Saddam didn't have WMDs after weapons inspectors failed to...

http://209.157.64.200/focus/f-news/1041039/posts Why do I think he's an a**hole? He has defended Klaus Barbie and Slobodan Milosevic, so he doesn't need the reputation, and he is an attorney so he doesn't need the money. This pretty much leaves just wanting to stir up trouble and be a...

Haven't seen this brought up yet here. From Snopes: http://www.snopes.com/politics/quotes/gulfwar.asp As stated there, if only Dubya could read...

Well, not really, but just to give an idea of how "important" Saddam's "peace offer" was.

I've seen some discussion of the shrewdness of Saddam in a couple of threads. Basically, there is the belief that he had to be very shrewd to survive as a dictator for as long as he did. This belief carries over into his handling of the situation of the past year. However, in what I've seen...

"Do you think Castro would grant sanctuary in Cuba to Saddam?" This came up more or less out of thin air during a discussion and, after pondering it for some time, the best answer I could come up with is, "Derned if I know." So, what do you think?

The proof that Saddam worked with bin Laden By Inigo Gilmore (Filed: 27/04/2003) Iraqi intelligence documents discovered in Baghdad by The Telegraph have provided the first evidence of a direct link between Osama bin Laden's al-Qa'eda terrorist network and Saddam Hussein's regime. *** Over the...

To keep from derailing other threads, let me propose the question here. Did he not think the Americans were serious? Hard to believe. Did he want to protect innocent civilians? Also hard to believe. Was he concerned that he didn't want history to remember him as a mass murderer? A...

http://www.guardian.co.uk/Iraq/Story/0,2763,932750,00.html I figured that he was alive. The media always does this kind of ◊◊◊◊. It's starting to p--s me off. Isn't this the 2nd or 3rd time they said that he was dead? The same thing happened with Osama. So the next time you hear that...

LOL JK

If this Donald Rumsfield has any ounce of conscience about Saddam Hussein using WMD then here is a picture on him on the Dec 20 1983 shaking hands with Saddam Hussein the same year Saddam used gas on in Iran for the first time.

Two images taken 1 day apart Its been a very devious deception but If you look carefully at the second image you can see that there is something not quite right with the psudo-Saddam's left ear. Ive blown this area up in both images for clarity. Very slick indeed! It's no wonder people...

....and Bush dropped the hammer on Saddam in the first 30 seconds of the war! Saddam was taken out of his compound on a stretcher with an oxygen mask on and it is rumored his knucklehead son Uday ate 3,000 degrees worth of high explosives! (cya Uday!!!!) President Bush is the next Abraham...

Two things that Timothy McVeigh and George W Bush have in common is they enjoy the act of killing and they both have a pathological hatred of the UN. I think he would rather like his new look because he looks so much like a real soldier

Saddam tells troops to swim - President Saddam Hussein has ordered Iraqi troops to go swimming as they wait for the long-threatened US attack, Iraqi newspapers said on Thursday. Regular swimming would improve their physical condition ready for the fight ahead, said Saddam, who is noted as...

HONG KONG: North Korean leader Kim Jong Il has offered political asylum to Iraqi President Saddam Hussein, according to a front page story in Sunday's South China Morning Post. The bizarre tale appears to be the kind of news story that newspapers like to publish on April Fool's Day, except for...

Link Now, I do not think assassinating Hussein is a bad idea. It may be a grand idea- I do not know enough to judge. I also do not know whether Senator Fitzgerald is prone to lying, exaggeration or bad memory. But I would hope that the President of the United States would be able to recall...

click here It's hard to tell whether this thread will result in more left vs. right flamewars. We'll see. Edited to add: Please move this to Politics forum. I am embarrased.

I juts heard somthing about that on the radio. Anyone else? Man that'd be a hoot. Imagine the SNL skits that would create. Do you think GW would ever do such a thing? Should he?

New Jersey Car Dealer Offers Saddam Hussein a Car If He Abdicates What's sad is that a lot of people took it seriously.

Saddam Urged to Make an Exit Mahmoud Ahmad, Arab News Staff RIYADH, 18 February 2003 — A leading Saudi newspaper yesterday urged Iraqi President Saddam Hussein to make a "heroic" choice and step down from power to save his country and the whole Middle East from a looming US-led war...

When do people think Bush decided to "get" (if not go to war with) Iraq? Was he predisposed to the idea when he took office? Was it the need for more energy that got him thinking about Iraq's oil? Or was 9/11 the catalyst?

I often hear the the spin that Saddam is a madman and he needs to be stopped because he will destory the world. What proof is there that Saddam is mentally ill??? I dont see him a sucidal madman. He knows if he used chem weapons he would be all done. He had his chance to use them in the Gulf...
