if they do then shouldn't someone tell the weapons inspectors 'cause they still have came up with nothing.

outriding, read the reports of the early years of inspections in Iraq. They were not very sucessful at all until some Iraqis defected and told them where to look and what to look for. You make it sound so simple when it isn't. Iraq is a large country and has had many years to learn how to hide what they have.

well i have not found those earlier docos. but really what crediablity do the defected iraqis have ?

heck they might just wanted to have their 15 minutes of fame. or just it was saddams sick joke to give us a wild goose chase while he

hides the real stuff.

i do support the UN inspectors. and i wish they more time. or just leave them there as long there is a threat.

Cry about it. Do you realize how many people, much less on AT, pirate software/movies?

Yeah but it Feris Beullers Day off. If there was ever a case for buying a movie and not pirating it, this is it, it's a classic.

What if's. what if's ...

Well you know the Russians are having their own terrorism problems. What if Chechnya was involved too? Iran is building reactors. What if they are involved too? China wants Taiwan. Only the US keeps that from happening. China might want to keep the US mired in conflict after conflict while they gain on us. What if they are involved with Saddam? What if all this conjecture is just plain silly? If one country takes advantage of a situation that does not mean a great conspiracy. As one here if fond of saying, tinfoil hats are in order.

I typed that message as I was ripping my downloaded copy of FB from divx to mpeg (TMPGenc ROX).

It was DIRECT attack on the number of IDIOTS on ATOT that tell me i shouldn't download movies. These same idiots download MP3'S and thats okay? We all do it. But there have been some people on this board that tell me i shouldn't....


'cmon guys, i was being sarcastic. of course i wouldn't judge you for downloading music/software/games/movies even though others on this board are in the habit of doing just that.
