"Guilt for the sanctions which effectively killed 1.7 million Iraqis according to UN figures. For those of you who were not privy to the sanctions regimen, Iraq was not allowed to import pencils because of the graphite and lead in them. Iraq was not allowed to import medical texts, medical equipment, or have its scientific community attend cancer-fighting seminars."
It's really to bad that Saddam didn't comply with the U.N. resolutions! I find it amazing that he would starve the masses and still use that food-for-oil money for scotch for the Republican Guard. That's not any "guilt" on the U.S., hell, he's the one that invaded Kuwait; even the other Arab Nations backed the gulf war and the U.N. resolutions.
"Let me point out a distinction. When Saddam Hussein invaded Iran, he did not have the mandate of the Iraqi people. He wasn't voted into office. There were no polls conducted to measure Iraqi pulse. There were no demonstrations. It was Saddam's decision. (The same is true today - when Iraqi Prime Minister Ibrahim Jaafari decided to agree to a US invasion of Tal Afar, he did not consult the Iraqi people"
This leads me to believe that this individual is probably Sunni since Tel-Afar was a very strong Sunni area on the Syria border.
Well, I know it's probably what you wanted to see but hell, just my opinion....right! :D
"Filthy Raghead"??? Just like all races..etc....there are good ones and bad ones. The only "people" I really don't care for are the French....try to look beyond the shit but.....................

I would like 2 see that in the Sunday newspaper somewhere n the A section, but that wont happen. Pax Americana Pax Romana
he sounds like a terrorist sympathizer. kidding.
interesting site. we're not a democracy i would add, we're a constitutional republic, the founders of this country made that distinction, and it's an important one.
he makes a good point here:
When the US military practices a systematic mechanism for targeting the welfare of civilians (Bombing attacks in the first Gulf War and the Kosovo War, systematically targeted power plants and grids, railway stations, refineries, communication networks, sewerage treatment facilities, and water purification plants, in spite of Article 54 of the Geneva Conventions which prohibits attacking any objectives "indispensable to the survival of the civilian population.") what am I to think?
and this...
Guilt for the sanctions which effectively killed 1.7 million Iraqis according to UN figures. For those of you who were not privy to the sanctions regimen, Iraq was not allowed to import pencils because of the graphite and lead in them. Iraq was not allowed to import medical texts, medical equipment, or have its scientific community attend cancer-fighting seminars.
Vital chlorine for water purification was denied by the US sanctions committee at the UN.
While Americans were watching Survivor, Iraqis were scrambling to find medicines. Many died because vital medical equipment in Iraqi hospitals had become obsolete or broken down. Privileged Iraqis tried to smuggle things into the country or leave entirely. In the 1990s, four million Iraqis left the country.
In the 1990s, thanks to the 300 tons of depleted uranium used by the US to blow up Iraqi installations and military hardware, cancers increased in Iraqi society by 500%.
but i won't get started on the UN...people should read that book i posted, the fearful master by g. edward griffin...and he brings up depleted uranium...we should all be outraged and sickened and horrified at the use of DU in afghanistan and Iraq...but wait, bill o'reilly and alan colmes have nothing to say about DU, so it's no a problem.
i'll have to read the rest of that site later...
This is what Article 54 really states:
Article 54.-Protection of objects indispensable to the survival of the civilian population
1. Starvation of civilians as a method of warfare is prohibited.
2. It is prohibited to attack, destroy, remove or render useless objects indispensable to the survival of the civilian population, such as foodstuffs, agricultural areas for the production of foodstuffs, crops, livestock, drinking water installations and supplies and irrigation works, for the specific purpose of denying them for their sustenance value to the civilian population or to the adverse Party, whatever the motive, whether in order to starve out civilians, to cause them to move away, or for any other motive.
3. The prohibitions in paragraph 2 shall not apply to such of the objects covered by it as are used by an adverse Party:
(a) As sustenance solely for the members of its armed forces; or
(b) If not as sustenance, then in direct support of military action, provided, however, that in no event shall actions against these objects be taken which may be expected to leave the civilian population with such inadequate food or water as to cause its starvation or force its movement.
4. These objects shall not be made the object of reprisals.
5. In recognition of the vital requirements of any Party to the conflict in the defence of its national territory against invasion, derogation from the prohibitions contained in paragraph 2 may be made by a Party to the conflict within such territory under its own control where required by imperative military necessity.
