You folks don't get it.
That is why we use the 5th column symbol. You are supporting their efforts.
The British made the mistake of saying the same things about Hitler.
Whem Saddam pulled his stunts we went in and upset his apple cart. We made a huge mistake by allowing the UN to take the reins from there on.
Sadam has been quietly doing his thing through third and fourth parties by supporting terrorists. He has been warring by proxy. He has the power and money of a state to build WMD and provide same to third and fourth parties who will do the deed.
He does not need a army to defend himself against us. He uses it to control his people. His people will do his bidding because they fear for their lives. He has shown in the past that he is capable of any deed no matter how unthinkable it might be.
Now, you tell me it's not your war. Fine! Someone will fight it for you, and you will be safe as always. The Brits know the result of appeasement. They know what happens if you play the game of "He has not attacked us yet so why attack him".
Use your head for something other than a hat rack.
How about those of us who have reasonable doubts about the government and its current propensity to overreach and grab as much power over us as it can? You seem to be spamming us too.
I saw an article by James Pinkerton today. You remember James -- he was the hairlipped fellow you used to see on all the talk shows during the Clinton impeachment. He was the former head of Readers Digest and is a RABID conservative.
I didn't see much comment on his article. It was spammed with the number 5.
I swear, if Newt Gingrich came on FR these days, and said something mildly critical or had a single reservation about the direction of the gov't these days -- NEWT HIMSELF would be shouted down with this '5' crap.
You guys are spamming threads, purposefully and with an intent to disrupt. Moderators USED to REMOVE efforts to disrupt threads. Not so much any more.
I see, so when those against a war with Iraq talk about Hitler - it's baaad, baaaad, - "here's your 5"
But when you guys want to bring up Hitler - perfectly reasonable. Hypocrisy thy name is "wirestripper"
You see the difference between Hitler and Saddam at least at this juncture is Saddam hasn't bothered nor invaded anyone since the end of the Gulf "War".
Sadam has been quietly doing his thing through third and fourth parties by supporting terrorists. He has been warring by proxy. He has the power and money of a state to build WMD and provide same to third and fourth parties who will do the deed.
Ok, if you say so. Now lets see the irrefutable evidence, not the speculation.
