Gawd damn he can't speak. I say we make Resolution 1549: POWELL MUST DELIVER ALL SPEECHES TO THE NATION!😛
 
He's no diplomat that's for sure. This comes across bad. He's telling the UN to put up or shut up- essentially, "we'll do whatever we want" message.

Of course we are the UN, without our support they'll crumble. Too bad. All that work we did for nothing.

This isnt sounding good. He's pointing out all the weapons Iraq still have/developed and other problems in Iraq, terrorism plots.

iow the same thing he has been saying for months... if you repeat something often enough, it becomes true....

Not to start a flame war but if the US had this proof why didn't they tell the UN guys where to look so it could be seen first hand?

that is what im asking/saying
 
He mentions "evidence" of "a terrorist organization" operating within Iraq that "poses a threat" to, among others, France and Germany. Hmm, if that weren't bullshit, wouldn't you think that France and Germany would be just as excited, if not more so, about going to war with Iraq as Bush is?
 
Lol. I'd agree with you about verifying the info, but not Russia, and not France or Germany- All those companies have vested intrest in continuing to get cheap oil from Iraq- which they are now.

Too late now. We'll be attacking any day now.

No- we set-up Germany to be a peaceful nation- that's coming back to bite us now.
 
Omg what a bizzah. "Saddam will be stopped" is how he ended? SO we knew that already!!! Besides, he can't speak very well. Lotsa stuttering.
 
Sounds like he is tossing it on the security coucil for another resolution. He threw down the gauntlet to the Security council.

I agree, that is what the UN inspectors are there for, funny thing is, WHT didn't anyone tell them? my guess is that the UN would have done what they did to the aluminum cylinder fiasco, ripped it apart....

Cause it was never the job of the UN or the US to go on a wild goose chase throughout Iraq looking for WMDs. They did that the last several rounds of inspections. Iraq was supposed to come forward and show that they no longer had any WMDs. If they did have WMDs, they are supposed to work with the inspectors to dismantle them.

Go look up the South African Nuclear Disarmament to see how it is supposed to be done. That is what they are looking for out of Iraq. Instead, we just got more lies and deception from Saddam.

Exactly. I would believe pictures taken from a disposable camera more than those spy ones that nobody can tell anything from except they are just buildings.

No, it sounds very good. Bush is not going to shrink from his duty to protect the world against mad dictators...

His final line said it all, "Saddam will be stopped"

I'll agree with that. Bush still does poorly with prepared speeches. He's much better at when he speaks without reading a teleprompter and speaks from the heart.

Looks like game on? Bush is very somber sounding.
I don't for one minute think Bush actually wants war, he understands that people will die on both sides when the war starts.

On the other hand, after seeing Iraq's responce to Powell today, war is now certain.

from what he was saying, I would bet there are already planes in the air.
