Since Iraq has refused to comply with 16 (sixteen) UN resolutions in the last 4 years, why would we believe that all is "sweetness and light" now??? What terror teams is Iraq financing? What teams has he financed??
All good questions, Karen and I don't know anyone who can answer them seriously. I'm waiting, frankly, for the Bush administration to make the case for all this with credible evidence.
I don't doubt that Hussein is almost all the things that folk have posted about him. My questions remain just how to deal with that. If there is an immediate threat from him, it seems to me the Bush folk have the obligation to make an evidence based case. After all, we are talking about the lives of a great many Americans and Iraqis.
We do know, however, to partially answer your question, that the Iraqis have paid some Palestinian families of suicide bombers. I was careful to keep that in mind when I sent you my post. I consider that different than "sending," though I can well understand someone saying that's a difference that isn't a difference. I just disagree with that argument.
Finally, I don't think we can attack Iraq on the basis of an argument for a series of possible future things.
I know I'm most likely to get a raft of disagreements. I reserve the right to respond to none, a few, or all. I simply stating my own position. |
