War in Iraq, is there a point?

Are those the same wmds that don't actually exist in the third world?? Because even the US government is now accepting there were no wmds in either Iraq or Afghanistan.Top global producer of wmds? USATop global exporter of wmds? USATop global investor in "new" wmds (i.e. bunker-busters etc.)? USATop global investor in the military? USA (equal to the combined investment of the rest of the world)Major threat to world peace??? Can't be the USA can it?MickThis message has been edited by mick, 08-22-2005 08:27 PM

benign???? I wouldn't be worried about a benign force, I assure you Faith.I am actually worried about an overmilitarized nation state that is the most politically powerful nation on earth, but also has the largest national debt on earth. I'm worried about what will happen when those asian banks you guys villify so much finally decide to sell all their greenbacks and send nutcases like Bush into the gutter.I'm also worried about the absurd hipocricy of American's fighting a war against WMD and "terror", when they are the biggest dealers in WMD in the world, the biggest arms traders, the biggest arms developers, and the biggest protection racket running on the planet.

Bin Laden, in his tapes, actually makes more sense than you are making here.Americans were the people who funded and encouraged Islamic fundamentalism, both to prop up the extremist Saudis (who you are still propping up, by the way) and to drive the USSR out of western Asia. You seriously need to read a history book.

A random stupid attack aimed at the wrong person (rather like Bush in that respect?). Borderline racist, highly jingoistic. Straight from Schwarzenegger.
