    Well here's a leftist who rejoices in the deaths of thousands of what he calls Murkans. He's happy over dead Americans.

    In view of Jack Napier's post to which you are replying, isn't it better to remain healthily sceptical rather than accept the word of a known duplicitous entity, the US government, as gospel? Otherwise one is in danger of believing that, for example, America forced the demise of the Soviet Union, and Vietnam was a glowing victory...

    There is a consensus in America across the political spectrum about what happened on 9/11. Any one who even remotely raises the truther meme is instantly discredited and dismissed. It is what it is.

    Have you ever been to Chengdu in China? If not, how do you know it exists?

    No one in the USA thinks Nam was a glowing victory, where did you come up with that? However, the USA did force the demise of the old USSR. If we were not around they would still be here~

    No, it does not. All it proves is that your government are/were a gang of mendacious, goal-shifting idiots who thought the rest of the world would believe their lies. It worked with Americans.
    Regime change was categorically not the original justification for invasion.

    Uh, nope. The USSR imploded all by itself. No help from America was needed. http://www.coldwar.org/articles/90s/fall_of_the_soviet_union.asp

    I guess your media hailed it as a Great American Victory over the evils of Communism. The reality couldn't be further from the 'truth' you were fed.

    I didnt claim it was the "justification". Removing Saddam was the "goal", the "purpose" of the invasion. Was so from the very beginning.

    From your link....

    So the US did force at least in part the demise of the USSR.

    This need for socialist countries to put military might above public welfare always baffled me. Look at VZ today.

    Actually, Iraq is now in compliance with all the UN reolutions on Iraq. Those goals were achieved as well.

    13. Recalls, in that context, that the Council has repeatedly warned Iraq that it will face serious consequences as a result of its continued violations of its obligations;

    I read the link in it's entirety, took all of two or three min, and while seeing nothing wrong or highly inaccurate, there were lies by omission. Unfortunately while I understand the obvious and painfully clear motive for those omissions* my empathy does nothing to help his incomplete, very minimal analysis of a complex series of events**. Any one of those events required a novel length analysis, not the rather pathetic synopsis the author presented.

    Indeed that ‘brief abstract’ masquerading as an legitimate what was it really, a study? Comment? Analysis? Or was it a bit of well designed propaganda? Anyway the omissions
    did detract from the credibility. His article was really an attempt to write a covert,(lies of omission) pro left spin anti-USA, anti Israel anti anything western, anti anything democratic, Christian, or freedom of religion piece whilst sliding down the slippery slope to ultimately promote anti freedom of the individual. No thanks it was truly a short piece of TP, Propaganda for those that still have the ability to think critically.

    See above my friend. (and you would love me like a brother if you knew the real truth of what is going on in this old world). The shot caller of world event isn’t 'president' of Russia, the USA, Israel or Palestine etc. no IMO, the ultimate the shot caller*, is what the bible calls the Beast or the old one, the prince of the air and the great deceiver, ie Apollyon****! Our leaders, the most powerful men on earth are not even water boys for the power, likewise Apollyon is the same to the real King, ie YHWH.

    I have to go got a call ...I will post the notes (the * ** ***) shortly!

    This is true. if it wasn't, then why so many foreginors flood America in search of.....FREEDOM.

    Truth is, most of the dictators are just that, dictators that supress their own nations' people. those people find ways to get America on the phone and then it's over for the fools
    Now I will say, that America will go to war into a country for it's oil reserves but that's about it. Kuwait was an example under Clinton, I believe.

    Bush Sr, and we didnt invade Kuwait or occupy. We were there at the invitation of the Kuwaitis. And we did invade Iraq back then, but never occupied.

    Easy.

    What do Israel most want?

    That's what America will get.

    What Israel wants.

    Because they are owned by Tel Aviv, and not free.

    Iran is inviting us too by their ignorance and attempt of suicide by world cop! Er not us but rather Mr Megaton. We should crash that party instead of sending a RSVP! Iran’s president believes in the Islamic prophesy that they will win a world war by inviting Armageddon, the trouble is that that idiot running Iran does not know that the only Armageddon he is going to invite is the death of his own country and people via theocraic’ insanity.

    Yup if our object was to have yet another pointless invasion/ war/ occupation we couldn't afford for no clearly apparent reason... "Mission Accomplished" :)

    Well, thankfully they do not yet get everything they want.

    There are even a few good men left in American politics, who wish to hand America back to the Americans, rather than groups like AIPAC, who act in the interests of an alien state, over those of Americans.
