I posted one this morning.....but some freepers just didn't like the idea .....so I had it pulled..

[alisasny]

U.N. Resolution 1441, which the Security Council adopted unanimously on Nov. 8, "is not about inspectors exposing evidence of Iraq's established failure to disarm," but about Baghdad's "disclosing the entire extent of its illicit biological, chemical, nuclear and missile activities and disarming itself of them with the help of the inspectors."

Explain that Mr. Blix....: )

Thanks for the ping! If anyone tries to disrupt this, I think we should ignore them and hit abuse to get rid of them. This thread is too important to put up with disrupters!

[Dog]

Written in 1938--sound familiar?

This is how the elite in the British press tried to manipulate general opinion among the English just before World War II, when they viciously attacked and sought to undermine Churchill for daring to criticize Chamberlain’s foolish embrace of the mass murderer Hitler. As the Times of London had the audacity to write on December 15, 1938:
The war-mongers [Churchill and his supporters], those who would make war against another country without having counted the cost, ought to either be impeached and shot or hanged. There has never been a prime minister in the history of England who has in nine months achieved such agreements as those Mr. Chamberlain has made with Czechoslovakia, Italy… and with Hitler at Munich.

Thanks for the ping, Howlin. I'm going to read Sec. Powell's speech and I'll be right back.

[Chad Fairbanks]

Howlin pinged me SPECIFICALLY so I could act as the Official Disruptor for this thread...

[Howlin]

Oh, don't turn on C-SPAN too soon......it's the guy from Al Jazeara.....and he's saying it's about OIL.....and he said that the prime minister of Saudi Arabia said the same thing this morning!
