Default Re: Iraq War (a few facts)

[ QUOTE ]
1. The current war in Iraq is actually a continuation of the one in which Iraq invaded Kuwait. That war never oficially ended.

[/ QUOTE ]

Who cares about whether the war "officially" ended or not? The invasion of Iraq was launched for totally different reasons and has been treated as a new campaign by everybody on every side. What is the point you are making here?

[ QUOTE ]

2. Anyone who believes there were no WMD's is naive. Just ask the Kurds.

[/ QUOTE ]

There obviously were WMDs in Iraq during the 1980s and early 1990s. If you have actual evidence that there were WMDs in the country when we invaded, then bring it out. Put up or shut up.

3. Anyone who believes there was no connection between Saddam Hussein is naive and uneducated. Just follow the Saudi money trail.

[/ QUOTE ]

Connection between Saddam and what? Please enlighten us as to what the Saudi money trail might tell.

[ QUOTE ]
4. Anyone who disagrees with points 2 and 3 needs to realize that international politics is not the US court system where you need everything documented in triplicate for a conviction. All you need is to learn your history, read between the lines, and apply some common sense.

[/ QUOTE ]

Why don't you present your evidence for those two points, which are highly contested, instead of just claiming them as fact? You've adopted this pedantic tone and derided others as naive and uneducated. So put your money where your mouth is and show off that worldliness and education that you must possess. I'll be waiting.
