Al Gore: I would Never Start This War

Al Gore: I would Never Start This War War with Iraq: 3 April 2003, Thursday.

I would never start this war if I were President, Former US Vice President Al Gore said via videoconferencing at the Economist Conference "Seventh Roundtable with the Government of Greece", which takes place April 2-4 in Athens.

Al Gore, whose participation in the conference has been prevented by secret services ban on travelling, underlined that he would have tried to deal with Saddam Hussein with all other means available.

James Rubin, former US Assistant Secretary of State, expressed confidence that Saddam Hussein possesses chemical weapons. He described the Iraqi crisis as the hardest trial NATO has faced since its establishment.

Former Vice President of Sweden Carl Blidt expressed confidence that Bulgaria will become a full member of the European Union in 2007.

This is the first time that the conference is held in the capital of Greece, which holds the EU's rotating presidency for the first half of this year.

Bulgaria's Defense Minister Nikolay Svinarov and Maxim Behar, Bulgarian Business Leaders Forum Chairman, attend the seventh consecutive summit, which focuses upon the strengthening of trans-Atlantic ties and the gap that has stemmed through key economic, political and social issues on the global agenda.

Branko Crvenkovski, FYROM Prime Minister, Serbian Prime Minister Zoran Zivkovic and Albania's head of government Fatos Nano are among the high-ranked guests of the conference.

The conference also explores the role that both Europe and the United States must assume in international politics, restoring confidence in the international financial markets, setting priorities in trade policy and competition.

In the middle of March this year the Fourth Round Table with the Bulgarian government, organized by The Economist Group, was held in Sofia. The cooperation between the Bulgarian government and the business community in the implementation of structural reforms topped the agenda.

Representatives of Economist Corporate Network spoke on the economic development of Bulgaria. Bulgaria's accession in the European Union, the business environment in Bulgaria, privatisation and their impact on the inflow of foreign investments in the country were other important topics on the agenda.

"Al Gore . . . underlined that he would have tried to deal with Saddam Hussein with all other means available."

And what means would that be, Al? Oh yeah, tying Saddam to a chair, forcing him to listen to one of your lectures. But then, we DO have to abide by the Geneva Convention's ban on "cruel and unusual" punishment.

Once the war is over, democracy is put in place, and the Iraqi people become a model of the Middle East, the liberals will fall over each other to take credit for whatever they can. That's one reason they want to UN to be involved in the rebuilding; they shudder that President Bush will get the credit.

As they saying goes, failure is an orphan but success has a thousand fathers.

LOL! Mix his logic you so beautifully pin-pointed with his natural obnoxious personality, and what we have here is someone who is destined for political humiliation at levels never before witnessed.

If Gore was Prez he would still be trying sanctions and diplomatic efforts to force out the Taliban. The White house might be a crater, and several more major US landmarks might be destroyed.

Right. Albore has no authority to override the Secret Service ban.

Gore is such a loser.
