Chevysucks and Guyt are both clearly adolescents with idealist views. Im not American but would rather live in their society than one run by communism, a dictatorship or a Muslim government. The US reasons for invading Iraq may be unclear but it is to simpistic to put them down to either weapons of mass destruction or oil. That they ousted a tyrannical dictator who not only butchered his own and other people but cynically let his poulation starve and die of lack of health care while building palaces all over Iraq is something that the world should be thankful of. This does not automatically mean that the US has to take on every other countries problems. Ideally everyone should live together happily and take care of each other. Thats being an idealist. In reality we can only afford to take on that which in some way concerns us. Or we would donate all of our money to all charities or none at all. As for the dead Iraqi civillians, thank the US that they spent billions of dollars developing weapons that could be targetted so accurately. If the US wanted to kill Iraqi civillians they could have carpet bombed Bahgdad with dumb bombs from waves of B52s and left nothing but desert. Much cheaper with less risk of their own personel. Its amuses me to see Iraqi civillians now protesting in their streets against the people who liberated them from a regime that would have forbidden such a thing and in all probability sought them out and executed them and their families. Aaahh the taste of freedom!Chevysucks may be interested to know that Jews (Israelis) are not Christians. One thing to be sure of that religion is to blame for all of this. Christianity, Moslem, Jew, Hindu or whatever. The only ones that seem to be placid are Buddhists but Im sure they are no more blind than the rest. Finally Guyt has just about alienated everyone with his childish ill concieved ramblings. Come back when youve grown up mate.
