Sorry, but you have to examine the UN Charter. Enforcement of the no fly zone does not allow an invasion. It simply allows the parties to enforce the zone and shoot down the aircraft.
We tried to get a resolution to invade but we were turned down... We invaded on the Defensive aspect of the Charter as we so stated to the UN and International Community... We really did do that.

The US cannot invade a Sovereign nation with out UN Resolution to do that. It must be explicit, as the UN said!
Aside from the Prima Facie evidence we also have the Res Ipsa Loquitur maxim. They are not the same and give the US a hard rock against which it sits in defense of the invasion.

Edit: For edification: "The difference between the two is that prima facie is a term meaning there is enough evidence for there to be a case to answer. Res ipsa loquitur means that because the facts are so obvious, a party need explain no more."


Huh? Our jets were being fired on.

Please tell us how that justified anything other than returning fire and taking out any ground based weapons that fired on them... which is what happened.

It STILL did not justify the invasion under the U.N. mandate. And it STILL wasn't among the myriad LIES spewed by your thankfully EX-Traitor In Chief and his criminal cabal. :|

I think the 'War Powers Act Resolution' Bush gave to Congress in Oct. '02, was crammed with some very creative language based on what Bush said was credible evidence. We now know it to be untrue. But Bush can argue that 'They' made a mistake or like that. It is obvious that he accepted what suited his purpose and tossed any hint of intel that pointed away from it... That bit of craft makes the mind spin. How could he have done what he did and be able to look us in the eye and say anything.

Edit: IF Obama said anything like that today I think all eyes would be focused on the evidence. Obama would not have 9/11 fears to ride on. Bush did and it is why he got away with it. (then)

It's humorous how riled up some get on a pointless internet forum :D


If we actually go back to the original post, I would give the example of Al Capone being prosecuted for tax evasion. That obviously means he was 100% innocent and not-guilty of all other crimes he was accused of. Just like the chances of this guy today being guilty is 0%, because the left-wing blogs say so :p

People who debate the legality of the war can do so until their heads turn blue. You dont have to agree with something for it to be true.

The same way NK or SK could end the armistice if provoked.


You break it, you buy it.

But we were right.....

As of 9/20/09, 4,345 American troops have died and tens of thousands more Americans are wounded, scarred and disabled for life in your mercifully EX-Traitor In Chief's war of LIES in Iraq.

Try asking any of their families and friends how "humorous" they find that... JACKASS! :|

How many of those have died under direct orders of YOUR Traitor-In-Chief? Afghanistan is starting to fall apart under Traitor Obama's leadership. How many of those soldiers would still be alive if Obama would have done what he promised and ended these illegal and unjust wars? How many innocent civilians also keep dying?

:thumbsdown: :thumbsdown: :| :thumbsdown: :thumbsdown:

Its digusting that you continue to avoid Obama's own slaughtering of innocent civilians and ordering of our troops to death. Shame on you!

Jeeezzzz ... I thought we were talking about how the FBI failed to convince some of the media that this Zazi fella should be held in jail for terrorist activities.

Who started those wars and left them for Obama to clean up?

I AGAIN demand, if you're going to call Obam a traitor, cite specific acts he has committed and please include links to specific statutory citations and credible authorities to support your claims. If you can't, you're all bullshit... Just as you've always been. :thumbsdown:

You know I've done as much for every crime I've listed committed by YOUR mercifully EX-Traitor In Chief and his criminal cabal of traitors, murderers, torturers, war criminals, war profiteers and general incompetents.

I can do it again at will. Of course, if I did, right wingnuts like you would just piss and moan that I was posting one of what you refer to as my "macros." And that's true. I have the info saved as text files. It takes a long time to compile and edit them and format them for posting.

Why should I re-write the same information again and again and again in response to the same lies, diversions and distractions posted again and again and again by right wingnuts like you? The facts don't change, no matter how many times you try to lie them out of existence. :roll:

Its digusting that you continue to avoid Obama's own slaughtering of innocent civilians and ordering of our troops to death. Shame on you!

Ask me if I give a flying fsk if you're disgusted. YOUR mercifully EX-Traitor In Chief and his criminal cabal of traitors, murderers, torturers, war criminals, war profiteers and general incompetents disgusted not only the American people, but the entire civilized world with their eight year criminal reign of terror. :|

How about looking at it this way...

Obama is the fireman using a back fire to try and put out what the arsonist started? When you use a back fire more good stuff gets destroyed but hopefully it keeps the fire from advancing out of control?

I'm sorry, but was it really Obama that pulled us out of there when we had them cornered in Waziristan?

How about.. no?

FBIFail: No evidence of bomb-making by terror suspect

Hahaha You fall 'hook, line and sinker' for the words of a defendants defense lawyer?

Don't expect the rest of to that.

Originally posted by: jpeyton

I don't know about you guys, but I find it odd that the FBI can't find a single piece of direct evidence (no materials, no explosives, no residue) to link the suspect to the allegations.

No, they do have some evidence that we know about (and have seen).

He purchased the 3 components necessary for a bomb etc.

You seem to expect that the FBI will release all of their evidence now, that they will be trying in the media instead of court.

So far, they've needed to produce only enough to get an indictmet - which they got.

After this to come to trial we may see more, particularly if the defense shares what they find out in the discovery phase.

As even many left types who've critisized the other 'busts' have said - this was guy in the operational phase (which is quite different than the other so-called plots) and this looks serious. The fact the FBI hasn't been able to find the bomb-making chemicals has been a concern of theirs from the outset (when this case was announced). So, it's waaay to early to denounce this plot as some kind of over-zealous FBI blunder where an innocent guy is slandered etc.

Fern

This.

Jpeyton's love for terrorists and hatred of U.S. soldiers no longer surprises me. (The FBI's JTTF are true "soldiers" in every sense of the word).

Too late now. It's just too fucking late to do anything about it without killing off most of the civilians. They WERE contained, now they are not.
