thehomicidalegg Posted January 2, 2003 Posted January 2, 2003 Do you think there's a severe double standard in US's approach to these two *ahem* AXIS OF EVIL (written in blood-dripping letters, to instill FEAR and PARANOIA) countries. Both are assumed to have and still producing weapons of mass destruction, the difference being that Korea is doing so openly and with audacity that Iraq wouldnt even contemplate. Yet Bush is only seeks to have a "diplomatic resolution" with Nth Korea, while trying to look for every loophole to War (YEEHAWW!!!) Iraq. Oil comes into the equation...(liquid gold in Iraq, a famished desolation in Nth Korea). Perhaps the close vicinity with Russia and China also have something to do with it. What do you think?
El Sitherino Posted January 3, 2003 Posted January 3, 2003 isnt this being discussed in the saddam thread?
Anakin_Solo Posted January 3, 2003 Posted January 3, 2003 Yes it is DOUBLE standards, from the USA. i think they want the IRAQ oil. BUT i also belive IRAQ IS developing chemical/BIO/Nuclear weapons. now remember they have broken the ceasefire for the last 10 years. and nothing has happened to them. This is why North Korea is now taking up Nuclear weapon making again. Who is going to go to WAR with NK ? If this is to happen, the USA MUST have the world as one. RUSSIA/CHINA/EUROPE/AUSTRILIA MUST ALL BE IN IT TOGETHER. If they are, we can look at world war III.... And North Korea might sell the weapons to IRAQ. or worse Al-quieda:eek:
Surfnshannon Posted January 3, 2003 Posted January 3, 2003 I think that there needs to be something done and whoever does do something is going to be critized and ostrosized for his decisions. It is easy to sit back and say do nothing...etc. But reality is, these guys are creating nuclear weapons and I'm sure they are not just doing it for the hell of it. Someone needs to put a stop to it. I think Bush isn't getting enough credit for what he has to do.

Surfnshannon Posted January 3, 2003 Posted January 3, 2003 k - but i'm sure there is a very good reason why we are going after Iraq first.
Anakin_Solo Posted January 3, 2003 Posted January 3, 2003 has isreal ever used NUKES? isreal have nukes cause the USA gaave them to Isreal to protect themselves... and even during the Gulf war. Isreal NEVER retaliated against IRAQ. they wanted too though....
Surfnshannon Posted January 3, 2003 Posted January 3, 2003 oh well i didn't know that. Isreal isn't a threat to the world or the usa so why would we attack them instead. Take the nukes out of the hands of mad men. I'm all for that.
