Seven days: Is war inevitable?

Recommended Posts

Let me hurriedly add something. Yes, I believe many Americans support war against Saddam because of anger and fear. However, this does not necessarily make them wrong. Just wanted to state that.

 

And just to say it: I can tell a lot of people in the USA hate Saddam. Not as in dislike, but in Real Hate. As in feeling your blood boil just from thinking about the subject.

 

I don't mean to spawn a subargument or anything, but I have to ask: Who decides what is the right thing to do?

That's maybe the best question I've heard in my life, and it made me stop and think.

 

I'd trade my right arm (I'm left-handed) for a book with the right answers to any question in it. But I agree: Especially not Bush :D.

 

When did rapping become a war crime?

Do you mean rape by any chance?

 

Admiral: US soldiers know what war is like

Definetly. I never said soldiers didn't. But with all due respect, a country where many civilians know what war is like knows more about a war than a country where the soldiers only know.

 

No offense.

 

(Shrinked due to size)He OBVIOUSLY knew that. And BTW, if you have total reliance on one tactic like the French did, and then get wiped out because they "did something you didn't expect." That's ineffective defense. When you allow yourself to be flanked like that, it's ineffective defense. There IS no excuse. They SHOULD have expected it. It's what their military desk boys are trained to do. Hypothesize on various strategies and the outcomes. They overlooked it and it IS their fault and they paid for it. It was a horribly ineffective defense.

 

although how that is relivant to the upcoming war I have no clue.

With all due respect, the USA was hit by an attack they certainly didn't expect, and thus, our defenses were ineffective too. If someone was to try the same thing again, the SAMs that are now placed in NYC would shoot the planes down. My point is, it's not that France and the USA can't fight: It's that the element of surprise can beat any army.

Neh. I meant rapping. Notice the ;). I just quoted Admiral's post where he says

They want Saddam arrested for war crimes. Such as rap, ethnic cleansing.

He might have meant rape, but rape has never been a war crime anyway.

Yes I believe Rapping should be made a crime. I consider it torture. But I did mean rape, if Saddam was rapping I pretty sure I would die of laughing.

 

Mass genecide wasn't a war crime (hell there weren't war crimes) Untill WWII. At some one has to be the first.....

-----------------------------------

 

I support a war not out of fear but belief that it is the righ thing to do and will improve the saftey of the world.

 

So why is it so darn dangerous to wait a couple of more months? We are finally getting somewhere, and then US want to go to war?

 

It is not dangerous, however at somepoint you have to say enough is enough. Either do it now or we will use force and make you do it. (I feel we have reached that point.)

 

We are only getting somewhere now because the US/other courntries are pushing for war. If they were not then Saddam wouldn't be cooperating at all.

I find it scary that you trust your own mind instead of trusting them who actually knows whether or not they are making any progress. In case you wonder who these people I'm talking about are, I'm talking about the weapon inspectors.
