I don't know what reports were reaching you guys when this was all kicking off, but over here in the UK all we got was that Bush wanted to kick Saddam's ass because he had his own weapons and that there were 'vaguely possible' links to terrorist groups. (y'know, kinda like that v.v.large American company that allegedly supports the IRA?!?) Anyways, next thing we know Blair is sticking his head so far up Bush's ass that Bush should look pregnant by now, and we're pushing to kill people. Small wonder that 99% of the people I know are against the war, we've seen no positive justification for it. I recently made a similarity between someone disliking a neighbour for his views, the way he treats his family etc, and the law being there to stop them going down to his house and kicking his ass all over for no reason..... that is EXACTLY how this war seems.... when the cold war was on with Russia, the US didn't try ploughing in there and stopping them making nukes by force, did it? No - 2 reasons; 1. Russia had enough power to fight back with enough force to cause damage. 2. Russia didn't have the readily available oil reserves like Iraq. All I can say is, have any of you ever seen an injured animal forced into a corner? They fight like hell to get free and don't give a damn about what get's damaged in the process. I'm honestly frightened for the consequences of backing Saddam into that corner...... (",)
