Hi Hawkmoon; Re: "Heaven forbid... You mean they might actually attack us? Like attacking the Pentagon and WTC?? Thousands of people were killed there, from ALL OVER THE WORLD." In response to my comment "We're at risk of pissing off everyone in the country [Iraq]."

Since Iraq wasn't involved in the attack on the WTC, why do you bring it up?

The facts are that Iraq is a secular / socialist state. It is a deadly enemy of the Fundamental Islamic religious nuts that brought down the WTC.

Our actions against Iraq are likely to replace the regime there with one that is fundamentalist Islamic, and in addition, we're likely to destabilize Saudi Arabia.

I know that you guys don't include Saudi Arabia among our allies, but as it is now the country is aligned with ours. After you succeed in kicking it over, it is almost certain to become an Islamic Fundamentalist "Republic" that will be completely aligned against us.
