perfect example of how this is not a "war" but a slaughter and should be addressed as such.

They are dead because they decided to put their lives on the line for a brutal dictator that may be dead or dying himself.
Had they surrendered, they'd be alive and in good hands.

do you believe that they KNOW that? what do you think is being fed to them daily? same type of crap that the american public is being fed.
 
you do realize that Saddam committed his worst atrocities with full support from the US right?

Where'd you get that pile of crap. He doesn't have any US arms, he got most of his weapons from the Ruskies. And the only support the US gave him was some intelligence info during the Iran/Iraq war. Remember, Iran was under the conrtol of AYATOLLA KHOMENIE, one bad motha f*cka, they had taken US Hostages, and really were (and still are a pain.)

You saw some liberal soundbyte about how the US "supported' Iraq, but really don't know anything about the US's involvment in Iraq.

This shows how we respect people other than Americans, do you really believe that Saddam would have caused 25,000+ US casualties if he was still in power and we were working diplomatically towards disarmament? I really doubt it, but most Americans disgust me and have very little regard for human life other than people from the US, makes me sick.

Bah.. there WAS no diplomatic solution to disarmament. Saddam wasn't going to do it, period, and no amount of the French throwing flowers would ever change that.

How do you know that? because some guy on tv said so, brilliant deduction. Are you aware that other countries were willing to put 3X the inspectors in Iraq to help with the disarmament? We wouldn?t even have to pay for it, and the US just rejected it, we didn't even give it a chance.
 
Even if you think that war was inevitable in order to disarm Saddam and remove him from power, only a child or a moron celebrates the death of 25,000 people..........:|
 
they were enemy soldiers. Shooting and killing Americans in order to defend an evil regime which HAS killed MILLIONS of INNOCENTS. You're damn right.
 
JAWT.

sheesh people. i thought we were trying to keep this in the stickied threads.

anyway. death sux.

3 x the fools to waste more time like Blix did? Might as well send Siegfried and Roy.

So you're saying that the information they're receiving is equivalent to ours? Good luck finding anyone to believe that.

still a shame to see so many willing to fight and die for that man.....

As long as they fought according to internationally recognized rules of engagement they died with honor in my book, they are not anymore repsonsible for the policy of their leader than we are.
We are free to say and do as we please, within reason, without fear of severe or deadly consequences. We never had to live with the fear they have, whose to say they were not told fight or your family dies?

A lot of them are dressing as civilians or even American soldiers, they're hiding in hospitals and mosques. SOP for Saddam
