your logic is flawed Logic? I mentioned several competing viewpoints, even going so far as to include your own. (Review:) Message 18581081 And you believe that the tension between the Iraq and the U.S. stems from a "few empty shells"? America changes its standards based on its desires. Absolutely. You would have it keep international relationships fixed and inviolable despite constant and swiftly changing needs internally and often-unanticipated shifts in the balance of power externally? Why attack Iraq and not Israel? Currently, Israel is considered an ally. Iraq is considered an enemy. (You may replace "Israel" and "Iraq" in the previous two sentences with any number of nations, incidentally.) Any other questions? Why support use of weapons of mass destruction at some times and not others. Why? Because there are those who work toward goals we support, and those who work against them, and at times, the enemy of an enemy is a friend. It is called integrity. For an aging hippie or a fifteen year old girl, perhaps. In the real world, it's called expedience. The USA is using propaganda to confuse its citizens. Like what? The USA is trying to split hairs[...] I don't think that twelve years of evasion being faced down constitutes splitting hairs, but your mileage may vary. Speaking of which: where are you posting from? :-) [...]why this huge focus on Iraq. Before you said it had to do with shell casings, and now you don't know? Does that hint strongly - as I believe it should - that you might not have enough information? The USA is in no danger from Iraq, your own CIA confirms this. Got a citation to back this claim? LPS5
