Oh I am sure aware of that.Violence in Islam is not a new thing:
I would think that it was more the Lybians, Iranians and Jordanians subsidizing that.Them durned Israelis benefited in another way. Saddam was no longer subsidizing the suicide bombing of Jews.
Lying about the rationale of war? Before the election, Tom Daschle believed iraq had wmd's and was a threat. Bill Clinton believed iraq had wmd's. Vladamir Putin believed iraq had wmd's. John Kerry had the same intelligence reports that Bush had, and voted for the resolution of war, as well as Hillary Clinton. Then, at the height of the upcoming election they all became against the war in iraq.
Saddam Hussein would pay terrorist families 25,000 dollars who's members blew themselves up around Jews in Jerusalem.
The bottom line is Saddam was playing cat and mouse with the UN and the weapons inspectors. He violated numerous UN resolutions on weapons inspections. Finally he kicked inspectors out of iraq, then they weren't in there for about 14 months(which would be plenty of time to hide something or ship something out). He was acting like he had something to hide. As any reasonable person would assume like Bill Clinton, Putin, and Kerry did. If he didn't have any wmd's, and had nothing to hide, why did he act so funny and fickle with the UN? Why did he kick the inspectors out? Why did he violate so many UN resolutions?
As someone else in the comments said, they were not kicked out, they left.Finally he kicked inspectors out of iraq, then they weren't in there for about 14 months(which would be plenty of time to hide something or ship something out).
What makes you say that? Iraq got a good dose of the militants from 2004 to 2007. They didn't like that.Iraq will be overrun by militant moslems very soon.
Then you should take the consequences and leave!The UN is dominated by Dictators R Us.
Why in Hades would we want to listen to them?
Yeah and those car bombs are all blowing up by accident or something?What makes you say that? Iraq got a good dose of the militants from 2004 to 2007. They didn't like that.
So the jihadis have little popular support.
They weren't "suspected" they were actually used. What no one knows, to this day, is what happened to them. Saddam refused to cooperate with inspections, as was required under the cease-fire (and yes, he did kick them out at one point).Either way, it does not matter. Israel was interested in him being removed and so it conveniently happened that there were WMDs suspected there.
Same reason more of us don't move to Mexico or Zimbabwe: it's a poor country compared to ours.TallDave, if Iraq is so save, then why dont more US citizens move there?
Factually, it is.I just doubt that the current situation is so much better.

84,000 a year. Iraq has 25 million people.That would seem a lot more than their birth rate can support.
Not really. The "casualties of the war" are something like 10,000 and all happened in the first year. The vast majority of the people killed died in an internal power struggle that was going on long before we got there. We stuck around and helped make sure the elected government won out, and so we get blamed for those as well. But ok, fine. It's still far better than under Saddam.Also what I named are just the casualties of the war
In Lebanon? The country isn't all Muslim. They have a Christian and Druze population. They have nightclubs and parties and are pretty Western.Yeah, if you are a muslim man you can do whatever you want, very liberal! If you are anything else, you will most likely get killed, or "mamed, tortured or forced to watch your children get raped".
It's main opponent is the United States.1. The muslim extremists. They can now get footholds in Iraq and Iran has lost its main opponent giving it all the money and time to do whatever they want
They can't carry on a conversation, solve an equation, write a poem, or compose a song.You've missed the point. Nothing about Jaguar is intelligent.
It doesn't take size to demonstrate intelligence. Single-celled organisms that respond appropriately to their environment and reproduce are already intelligent.
Well, once the war was won, they looked and did not find anything.They weren't "suspected" they were actually used. What no one knows, to this day, is what happened to them. Saddam refused to cooperate with inspections, as was required under the cease-fire (and yes, he did kick them out at one point).
Hu?People tend to forget that in 1991 Saddam sent his air force to hide in Iran.
Yes now that the Iraq is gone.It's main opponent is the United States.
There is lots of money to made there right now though...Same reason more of us don't move to Mexico or Zimbabwe: it's a poor country compared to ours.
Gladly, as soon as we elect a Senate of John Boltons to do it. Problem is, we have a bunch of socialists that love the UN, and hate America. There's a few too many of them for those of us with brains to vote them out though.Then you should take the consequences and leave!
If you despise the union of nations so much, then be so honest an leave. Dont put the politically correct face on for the rest of the world and then do whatever you want anyway (as you have been doing for years now).
