 Arrogant Bush Administration
Why do you focus on France, that's just silly. A clear majority of the UN security council was against Bush and Blair, and also Russia and China had announced a veto. Don't try to persuade yourself it is only France, the great majority of nations, let alone their population, is clearly against this violation of international law. So feel free to add Swiss (my home country), German, Italian, Swedish (you name it) companies to your list. The list will be very long, but don't worry, just go ahead.
We all agree that Saddam is a cruel criminal who has to be controlled, removed, killed, whatever. But in this war (like in the last) children, women, men will be killed who did not chose to be ruled by him. And don't forget: Saddam only is in power because of the US - they thought he would be usefull against Iran - but that's another story.
Here a few questions:
- In the last war the water supply of Iraq was a prime target of the allied forces. US scientists have revealed a detailed plan of the US administration to weaken Irak by preventing the delivery of certain chemicals used for water treatment before and during the embargo. Because of this, approx. 500'000 children have died in Iraq due to infections (UN estimation). Is that fair?
- Cheney, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz, Libby and others (unfortunately now part of the Bush administration) have never made a secret out of the fact that in their opinion, US Forces should control the Middly East (read http://www.newamericancentury.org/R...asDefenses.pdf, a product of the think tank they were part of) due to the strategic importance (oil!!!) of the region. Do you really believe Bush's target is democracy for Iraq? If so, why is the US Administration constantly on the side of dictators like the King of Saudi Arabia and other leaders of Arabic nations, none of which are democracies? If the people of these countries would vote, the would definitely vote anti-US, tough ****, wonder why? Maybe because they feel the US government acts arrogantly and exclusively supports Israel?
- Powell claimed that UN inspectors have only found the tip of the iceberg. US intelligence has been observing Iraq von decades now, if there really are icebergs (weapons of mass destruction), why can't they bring up ANY evidence apart from some tapes and pictures of factories which were later shown to be empty, destroyed or whatever by UN inspectors. That was a very poor show, not convincing at all, but any excuse for war was ok, obviously.
- Is a christian fundamentalist (in the way Bush seems to be one) any better than any other fudamentalist?
- You want to be a superpower, but you don't have health insurance for a major part of the people?
I am aware of the fact that the Bush administration is not USA in general, but the way Bush acts, the US will be a lonely place in the world soon.
