I didn't say I disagreed with it, you ass. It's been discussed in several threads already, and it's been concluded that it is indeed people's right to protest peacefully if they see fit.

Well you already know that I hate you so why are you trying to play out your homo-erotic fantasies with me? BTW, REPOST!

So are you really Batman are do you just wear your tights and cape when posting on the computer?

F*ck you. 10 million people protested around the world on Feb. 15. This guy found a few that were dumb. You conclude that "many of these people really have no clue."
Oh really, how many of those 10 million don't have a clue??

Tell us how many had a credible anti-war argument and we'll subtract the difference.

9.75 million?? This leaves 250,000 dumb-asses - that's still alot of dumb-asses.....

You know that you sport wood for tights and hard rubber. Better get in line behind Scoorb. 😛
 
Can anyone provide undeniable proof that Iraq is a threat to us in terms of nuclear weapons?

I'm definitely not for a pointless war, but I agree the most the war protesters are out there the more I want to go to war.

That's funny because he is married and you are??? That's right you are trying to pick me up over the internet to indulge in one of your nightly gay superhero fantasy parties. I will tell you go screw yourself but I am pretty sure you are already flicking your flounder pretty good just by me responding. I would tell you to eat my goober but you are already horny enough.

Peace,

Scoorb isn't really married, he's a reincarnation of our dearly departed Denilfloss. He comes over and plays catwoman at our gay superhero parties, but we're really looking for a Robin and I think you just might fit the bill. 😀

I think I will pass but I will post a message in ffmcobalt's forum to let Jerboy know you are looking for a Robin.

Can anyone provide undeniable proof that Iraq is a threat to us in terms of nuclear weapons?

No they can't. But, then undeniable proof is a hard commodity. What is for certain is that Saddam used to have a nuclear program of sorts, and that documents relating to that program are missing (the weapons inspectors want them).

10 million? Wow, that is beyond the best numbers I have heard in the media. BTW, it turns out that in San Francisco at least, the number of protestors was heavily exaggerated. I suspect such would turn out to be the case worldwide, if they checked.
 
Unless you are not sure the cause is just then I don't understand why you are upset that it's put under intense scrutiny.
 
blah,
saddam is not pushing for war... hell noone except bush/blair is pushing for war. Violence is always the last solution and even Kofi Annan said the diplomatic means of getting this done havent been extenguised yet.

I'd trust a Nobel Peace Prize winner more than ex-alcoholic texan that talks funny...

On that note, if Bush jsut shut his yapper and let Powell / Blair handle the whole deal, im sure there would be no problems with the whole plan.

Oh yeah the world wide protest involved 600 cities so 10 mil is a pretty decent number

Lets see: England - 1-1.5 million
Spain - 2-3 million
Italy - 2-2.5 million
There's at least 5 million there
Add the US (about 500k - 1million)
France, the rest of Europe, the other 5 continents that were having protests on that day, and it adds up to 10 million, give or take a million.
And the estimates for San Fran were off on the high side for once. This doesn't make up for the exteme low-balling of numbers the press has used for every other protest here in the states.

WHY ARE YOU NOT CALLING SADDAM ET AL AND PROTEST HIM FOR NOT COMPLYING WITH THE UN SO WAR WILL BE AVOIDED??? :|

The us and the 40 other nations are not the bad guys here! all he has to do is comply with the UN and there will be no fricken war!!! how hard is that to understand!

where is my tylenol...

The US is going to invade Iraq. Who would you protest? The aggressor or the country that is about to be invaded?

I would and do protest Saddam for playing his little games that are a threat to the US and the entire world. We are not the aggressor in this situation Saddam is. All he has to do is come clean and disarm ALL of his chemical and bio weapons and to stop supporting terrorism. Is it that difficult to understand??

Sadly the antiwar people completely ignore that. The more anti-war protests i see, the more I see them as anti-America and Anti-Bush.

Had a liberal democrat decided to do this, Sheryl Crow would be leading the charge for the liberation of Iraq.

Yesterday, I was telling a co-worker that Bush had not successfully sold this war to the American public. After reading your post, it is obvious I am wrong. The US is about to rain death and destruction on Iraq and you are convinced that it is not an act of aggression.

I don't ignore it. (Technically, you are the aggressor BTW)

The US policy is regime change. Why, in that case, will there not be war if Saddam complies with resolution 1441? How will you effect regime change without a war.

I realise that violence is probably the only way to get Saddam to disarm - but I doubt that disarmament is what this is all about (see regime change).

Andy

I also haven't seen any evidence of him supporting terrorism (no - that doesn't mean I think he's a nice man - I still hate him).

Anti-Bush yes.
Anti-American? I am suspicious of people who lable anyone who disagrees with them as Anti-American. Basically there are a lot of people who disagree with Bush's intentions to invade Iraq. Calling them names is not going to change their minds.

Technically we are not an aggressor, as Saddam has broken the cease fire aggreement.
 
An aggressor is someone who starts a fight (be it with a person or a country). Maybe you see it differently, but I interpret start a fight as "drop a bomb" not "break a deal".

I think the "aggression" he's been giving the UN over the last 12 years won't really match the aggression the US will unleash in a few weeks.

Andy

OK, lets get technical. If the US attacks Iraq and does not get specific UN Security Council approval (res 1441 or cease fire agreements are NOT specific UN SC approval!) to use military action against Iraq, the US and attacking allies are in violation of the UN charter, hence the US and allies are the agressors.

In diplomatic language, what does "serious consequences" mean?

For one nation to invade another, an explicit UN security council resolution is needed. I'm afraid "serious consequences" is not said resolution.
