Well, at the risk of getting flamed again. Just how deep is too deep? And when could they pull out without repercussions to the employees left behind?

At the first sign there was going to be an issue... Don't you think it worse that by aiding Saddam that many more Iraqis were killed than just those who worked for them? How can you place a value on any life? That is what CNN did...

I suggest that you take a break and do some soul searching. It's a difficult thing to do while you are wrapped up in the storm. CNN is supposed to be a news organization. They refused to report the news in Iraq for purely monetary reasons. They helped Sadam murder his people for a few dollars. Their staff was never really safe, they were just playing Russian roullete with them. They didn't have the integrity or backbone to try to get out of their predicament. They were nothing but whores and enablers. Like the wife who lets her husband beat the kids, they never even tried to get help.

They should have got out and taken everyone with them. then, they should have reported the truth about what that country was like and gone on the offensive to have that Dictator outed. It might have cost a few lives but it might have saved 100,000 others. This couldn't be any simpler. They made a deal Satan.

With all due respect to you both..

Please stop it..

This is not about either one of you, and what possible difference will your squabbling make?

This reporter is an ass, and is hoping for exactly what you are giving to him, this "infighting" about who is right or wrong, instead of what HE did.

Don't give him the satisfaction.

Please...

Neither of you are the villians here, yet!
Don't make it so.

It is HE who should be punished, let's focus on that..

We can speculate forever about what WE would have done..it doesn't matter, the damage by him has been done..

We must not let it damage us!
