Are you any braver, sitting behind a computer posting pro-war comments?
For that matter, the Gulf War was described by US troops as "a turkey shoot." Most US causalties were from traffic accidents. And I don't think this one will be any different. So you know what -- Bill Maher was right. US troops may be brave, but courage won't be a requirement for the upcoming turkey shoot.
However, it will set a dangerous precedent -- yet another step eroding national sovereignty. If we don't respect Iraqi sovereignty, why should anyone respect ours, other than that we can bully everyone for the moment? (Not that the Bushies care about US sovereignty.)
I have nothing left to prove. The Gulf War was a turkey-shoot. But the primary objective was not achieved. This madman is still in power, and it appears that some of you boa clad limp-wrists will want to see NBC used in our country from Saddam before you make a move. There would be your so-called "proof," at the expense of what, a million American lives?
Some deal.
Sovereignty? So, was Israel wrong when it bombed the Iraqi nuclear reactor in 1981? Did it violate Iraq's "sovereignty?" It has intelligence that showed the Iraqis were trying to develop weapons there.
We have intelligence that Hussein is developing WMD again, but that's not proof enough for you.
There's just cause here. All you have is your precious but inept ideology.
