The only reason we would be going to war with Iraq is because countries like Saudi Arabia think he's a pain in the @$$ or because it might have something to do with the infamous Caspian Oil pipeline (just a wild hunch of mine). It's not about terrorism. If we was we would be in other countries first, taking them out...and we wouldn't criticize Israel when they went after them! AND we would be securing our own borders...where the hell do you think the anthrax came from? Iraq? Why was Atta allowed in this country? Oh, yeah, the INS. Saddam didn't do that. It was us, the US who let these terrorists infiltrate our country. THINK, dammit, think!
Lets see if you feel the same when the body bags start getting used up and our Middle Eastern 'allies' still jail Christians and etc...and when your taxes go up and oil prices go up...and places like Kuwait (who we fought for, to 'democracize' them) won't even let us use the air bases there! Real thankful to us over in the Middle East, aren't they????
Because if we don't, the potential for chemical and biological warfare occurs HERE. You think we are going to be 'left alone' if we just sit here and say nice things?
Bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb Iraq.
Bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb Iraq.
Oh bomb Iraq, take Kuwait back, Bomb Iraq,
Try to free Kuwait before it's too late,
Bomb Iraq. Bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb Iraq.
Old Khomeni might have been zany,
But Saddam Hussein seems to be twice as insane.
Bomb Iraq, take Kuwait back,
If Hussein wants a duel turn him into fossil fuel.
Bomb Iraq. Bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb Iraq.
"Yakety Yak, Bomb Iraq":
"This crazy man named Saddam Hussein
Ain't no doubt that the man's insane
He better get used to feeling fright
In from the south, put out his lights.
Yakety yak, bomb Iraq."
"He must have been an only son
Growing up and playing with guns
Came into power, came into wealth,
Look out your window, check out the Stealth.
Yakety Yak, bomb Iraq."
"A man possessed by his own greed,
Ignores his country's desperate needs,
We ain't going to cut you any slack,
Look at his palace, now it's a shack.
Yakety yak, bomb Iraq."
"Big ground forces rolling in,
Your own troops know you cannot win,
Don't get too comfy in your pad, Whoops - there goes Baghdad.
Yakety Yak, Bomb Iraq."
"I can't believe you're still alive
Feeding your people all that jive.
The USA won't take no flak,
Here comes another air attack.
Yakety Yak, bomb Iraq.
The USA won't take no flak,
Here comes another air attack.
Yakety Yak, bomb Iraq."
I can think of a quick, cost-efficient way to wipe out Iraq without subjecting a single US soldier to the possibility of any chemical or biological warfare. Something of the nuclear variety would do nicely.
His first post, to TBLSHOW, was NOT about what TBLSHOW had said; rather, it was about TBLSHOW, himself. His posts , to me, are also in that same vein.
But we tell Israel to give peace a chance?
Yes, I agree about Saudi Arabia.
Why are we refusing Iraq's offer to allow inspectors into Iraq? I thought that is what we were mad about.
"The potential for chemical and biological warfare" would still be a threat to us. Don't you think that maybe there are other countries with those capabilities? Maybe Saddam has some of that technology or at least the directions on how to process it in some other country somewhere as well. What proof do we have that he is planning to attack us with this stuff? None as far as we've been told. Perhaps if we attack Iraq, he WILL use those types of weapons on Americans because he'll figure he has 'nothing to lose'.
Frustrating, ain't it?
Oh, sure. Lets just go drop a nuke on a million innocent people, who haven't done anything in particular to harm us, because 'we don't like' their 'leader'. The founding fathers would be turning in their graves if they could hear remarks like that...
