Yes, of course. No one wanted war back in 91' either eh? Old Bush just went to war to increase his popularity!
I mean those in Kuwait who were being invaded, raped, tortured and generally plundered by Iraq didn't want war either did they?
And the UN Security council members who voted for action against Iraq... they didnt war war either I guess.

No one is supporting war? Think again:

When i referred to bush trying to gain popularity i was refering to panama, not iraq. Bush senior had very high approval rate but still failed when he ran against clinton, it might've been because of Perot but he lost. Bush junior obviously isn't doing so well in approval ratings right now and he needs something to cover it up, much like clinton did when there were investigations on monica (he sent missiles to sudan didn't he?)

Is Kuwait being invaded as of today? no. our allies (except britain) are very skeptical over an Iraqi invasion. furthermore, if they don't b!tch and let us send investigators over there to check their weapons out, I don't see any reason to oust him now because of the economic situation we have today. If we fight Iraq today, our Allies probably won't even pay a penny for it. It was bush sr's fault for not finishing him off the first time, we don't need dubya to spend more US taxpayers money to invade iraq when they are not directly threatening america. I don't want US soldiers to be used as political tools of Dubya.
Ah yes.......it's all Bush right??????;) Is that why Daschle and other Dems. said last week that any mandates concerning Iraq and any action to take Saddam out of power would pass without any problems whatsoever????? Yep, "old Bush" is just going to do it all by himself...............sure...............
