This is the most disgusting thing I have ever read. The pro-Saddam left should be held accountable for their tacit support of this ruthless dictator.

"The children had been imprisoned because they had not joined the youth branch of the Baath party," he alleged. "Some of these kids had been in there for five years."
And amazingly reported by France Press.

Agence France Press changes its tune.

They are going to need those weapons to take out the Fedayeen in their neighborhoods.
To: HAL9000
I don't mind if the civilians turn their weapons on their oppressors. They know who the bad guys are.

Probably like a scene right out of "Indiana Jones" where he and the Chinese kid go in and free all those youths subjected to slave labour.
How can the liberal scumbags say Bush was wrong NOW!?
"No War for Oil", huhhhh????

Remember it was Scott Ritter who stated he had seen proof of Hussein's abusive conduct toward children, but tried to keep it quiet as he stated he was for peace, not war. I'm sure I saw that article posted here but don't remember a title.
To: HAL9000
We don't need to find any WMD.
We already have overwhelming proof that Saddam and his sons and henchmen were the world's worst WMD.
To: finnman69
and Scott Ritter should be held on charges of Treason and crimes againsts humanity...
Question:
You've spoke about having seen the children's prisons in Iraq. Can you describe what you saw there?
Scott Ritter:
The prison in question is at the General Security Services headquarters, which was inspected by my team in Jan. 1998. It appeared to be a prison for children toddlers up to pre-adolescents whose only crime was to be the offspring of those who have spoken out politically against the regime of Saddam Hussein. It was a horrific scene. Actually I'm not going to describe what I saw there because what I saw was so horrible that it can be used by those who would want to promote war with Iraq, and right now I'm waging peace.

The American Left is losing credibility everyday. They supported a dictator who jailed kids for not joining a political party.
I wonder if someone is telling the Iraqis about people like Susan Sarandon, Martin Sheen, Mike Farrell, Ted Kennedy, Tom Daschle, etc.... who didnt want the US to liberate Iraq? If we listened to the wacko left, these kids would still be in prison and their parents heartbroken

I am compiling a list of things to bring up the next time some liberal doofus starts spewing that "it's all about oil." The torture, the rapes, the imprisonment of children and more--this is what the anti-war people are supporting, whether they are aware of it or not. I plan to make as many of them aware of it as possible.
