Of course they rather have Saddam ousted, but you think they're happy with the daily suicide bombers and living in constant fear? And what about the things the US don't want you to know, like torture and reckless behavior?
It's war. People die. But think of the millions of people that haven't even been born yet, generations are being saved too. Saddam was raping and killing innocent people for no reason. Those innocent lives dying, it's horrible yes but, are dying in a good cause. It's horrible that people have to die, but more people would have died under Saddam than this war. Mark my words.

Bush wouldn't have a sorry ass excuse to invade the middle east and use "terrorists" as scapegoats. As for the tsunami thing, that was overhyped, and they got way more money that can be invested in other world crisises that is sadly ignored, thanks to the media.
Well, America has had chances to take Saddam out before. Clinton refused to and let Saddam and Bin Laden go. Bush is just trying to make up for that. And why didn't America invade Iraq right away? Well, first they went to Afghanistan.
cyanide wrote:Seriously man, I think something should be done about the genocides that are going on in Africa. Too bad nobody gives a flying shiite. Mark my words, Iraq won't see any improvements for a long, long time, and may never see improvements at all because of $$$. If they do improve, it's for the US' benefit - and I mean business benefit. Think - oil. Like I said, the US was standing in the sidelines a little too long, a little too late.
Iraq won't be 100% free anytime soon. But does that mean we shouldn't try? Somethings take time. I think when you are dealing about people's future you have to take time. And of course it has some benefit to America, every move a country makes has to have some kind of benefit in return. It's how every nation works.
And to bring up the situation about Africa. Sorry you don't know this but America actually has troops stationed all over the place, including Africa. They have troops in South America dealing with drugs wars, and people all over the place in places like Germany and other England countries. America doesn't have any troops in North Korea but right next to North Korea in the Demilitarized Zone they have a bunch of Cav Scouts there. So saying America isn't doing anything about Africa is naive. They are, they have troops there and they are sending aid. It's just you never hear about it because of the war on Iraq and the stuff with North Korea.
cyanide wrote:I actually said in another post that the US should be more concerned about North Korea than Iraq, so don't make assumptions. And I never said anything about wanting North Korea to have nuclear weapons rather than the US. If the US spent billions and billions of dollars in bribes to assassinate Il-Jong, then that'd probably be a lot easier than worrying about Iraq's "WMDs"
America is talking with North Korea but it's hard to do anything because the Chinese Government wants to be in charge of the conflict. So America is really tied up, therefore they cut out all supplies and shipments to North Korea, which really pissed them off.
cyanide wrote:Yes, and ask the Kurds which country supplied the Iraqis with weapons so the Kurds could suffer. (hint: the good o' red white and blue)
Once again, that isn't Bush's fault. Bush has to try and correct the errors now. But also to defend America, you have no idea who will turn your back on you. Saddam hasn't always been power hungry and crazy.
Also, America has nukes. Canada has nukes. Australia has nukes. Pretty much EVERY country that has some kind of power has nukes. But Canada has them for defense just like America and Australia has them for defense. So don't get on America's ass because they have nukes when pretty much every nation has nukes of some kind. Nobody cares that America, Canada or Australia won't use them for harm.
the diapers says it all!
