"Would you feel the same way if your neighborhood turned into a bunch of crack houses and a center for organized gang activity??"

Show me the map that shows the USA with Iraq next-door....

Close to Israel, yes.

Of the 2 countries, which has PROVEN Weapons of Mass Destruction? Iraq, doubtful. Israel ABSOLUTELY!

So why are we not clamping down on Israel? Because they are in our pockets, financially, militarily, in every other way.
DEPENDENT on us.

Relative to your other comments, there is a great difference between police action and wars.

As you have read on this thread there is NO basis in International law for going to war against a nation preemptively. When attacked, yes.

There IS no attack, and little prospect of it.

Do you suppose any of this would be happening if Iraq:

-- were not strategically located in the region?
-- did not possess sizable oil resources?

Ask your gut those questions. Your head is still too much subject to the "spin".

You are seeing your country at its worst, being spun as your country at its best.

BS all the way.

Namaste!
