Right. Right. When they blow up the orphanage in Baghdad we are all going to be dancing in the streets, burning their flag like those brown people did when our fellow citizens were jumping out of that burning skyscraper. I bet you were dancing too, weren' you?

Before I respond to your previous post, I couldn't resist the temptation.

t-t: "Name two. And make sure you name two *existing* dictators who stockpile anthrax and mustard gas, who who have murdered their minority citizens, who have launched two wars of aggression against their neighbors, who actively are seeking materials to create nuclear bombs, and who have given aid and comfort to terrorists who fly planes into our skyscrapers. Give 'em up."

Washington stockpiles all sorts of chemical and biological weapons. In fact, these weapons were given to Hussein to kill "his people" and others. For quick measure I quote Edward Herman: Washington has "committed acts of aggression against Guatemala (1954), Lebanon (1958), the Dominican Republic (1965), Vietnam (1954-75), Laos (1964-1975), Cambodia (1969-1975), Nicaragua (1980-'990), Grenada (1983) and Panama (1989)." We have nuclear bombs, and have used them on a civilian population. And, finally, we armed and financed OBL. By the way, he was a jolly, good fella killing other people; and definitely not a terrorist until we became his target.

I'm sure you can find your second dictator. Or maybe Hussein's the only really bad dictator.

[edit: Washington not being a dictatorship is irrelevant, because ostensibly we are attacking Iraq for the crimes you mentioned.]

Oh. You have the secret knowledge what the *real* reasons are.

Testosterone. Oh and oil, or rather control of the region from which the oil comes.

And exactly who is the assassin who will be putting a bullet into Saddam's head? Tommorow.

Do you really think he couldn't be got at?

Hundreds of thousands? Please explain how you *know* a hundred thousand will die. Or even how you *know* 24 or 25 might die. I say an hundred thousand will surrender as soon as we make a move. And that is from experience. You are privy to a separate experience?

What will be the point of surrendering to bombs and missiles? Strangely enough they don't tend to hang around and listen.

As to the hundreds of thousands well that just goes with the territory, that was the figure last time and I don't expect this one to be any different.

And make sure you name two *existing* dictators who stockpile anthrax and mustard gas, who who have murdered their minority citizens, who have launched two wars of aggression against their neighbors, who actively are seeking materials to create nuclear bombs, and who have given aid and comfort to terrorists who fly planes into our skyscrapers. Give 'em up.

It would be extremely difficult to name two as there aren't any matching all these criteria! Excepting of course the one in Bush's imagination.

You lose pal. You can't even name ONE.

OBL is NOT a dictator of any known country. And when we did finance him he was killing a fair number of Russian's who invaded Afghanistan, not necessarily any oppressed minority.

The United States is not a dictatorship. And stringing out a long list of our foreign adventures and interventions doesn't come close to answering my challenge, nor the question. Like most leftist slogan chanters, you make extraordinary claims, and instead of backing them up, you want to string out a long list of charges against your enemy. Which is, in this case, the United States.

You haven't found the first one yet, and you can't. And your original premise is crap. You lost.

P.S. And when we did you use an A Bomb on a civilian population, they saved my Dad's live who was on Okinawa. So I'm glad every last one of those innoncent civilians are dead. I'm sorry they had to die. But I probably wouldn't be having this pleasant chat with you otherwise.


I don't remember putting *you* in charge of the challeng, dude. It *is* relavant. You made an outrageous claim that our government supports ruthless dictators, and now you can't support that claim, so you make your own country a ruthless dictator.

You are pathetic.

t-t: "Then why am I talking to you?"

Such a brilliant mind, you shouldn't be wasting your time here.

t-t: "Name two."

Name two murdered innocent people? Don't be ridiculous. You very well know that war invariables causes civilian casualties. We've been bombing Iraq for the past 12 years.

t-t: "Sure you can. It's been done for thousands of years."

It's illegal. And if it doesn't bother you, then you shouldn't criticize Hussein for doing it. But you do...

t-t: "Do you mean like invading a weaker, smaller neighbor? Signing a peace treaty, and then ignoring every provision of that treaty?"

I'm not defending Hussein's criminal actions. It's just laughable to consider Hussein a threat to world peace, and hold him to a higher standard. Countless countries have done the actions you've mentioned in your criticism of Hussein. Sometimes much more powerful countries. Shouldn't we be consistent in how we uphold agreements? Either bomb every country that's disobeyed international law, or not.

t-t: "OBL is NOT a dictator of any known country. And when we did finance him he was killing a fair number of Russian's who invaded Afghanistan, not necessarily any oppressed minority."

I don't think you understood what I wrote. You seemed to have jumbled my intended message. In short, every crime you hold against Hussein, the US has committed or participated in. I won't repeat the details; if you wish to discuss them, you can re-read them and address them.

t-t: "You are pathetic."

And this isn't addressing them.

t-t: "When they blow up the orphanage in Baghdad we are all going to be dancing in the streets, burning their flag like those brown people did when our fellow citizens were jumping out of that burning skyscraper."

You don't think there are people (a definite minority) in the US who will feel like dancing when bombs start falling on Iraq? There is a racist, arrogant mini-minority that is happy to see people suffer. Are you telling me, never in our history, a black person was lynched before a gleeful audience? Nobody is immune to indoctrination.

t-t: "you want to string out a long list of charges against your enemy. Which is, in this case, the United States."

That "long list of charges" stands without rebuttal. When the US commits a crime, I hope I am as quick to condemn my country as I am to condemn another's. If you want to be a hypocrite, so be it.
