Well, that shows your grasp of history, if you think that Iraq and Germany were the same level of threat to the United States.
Let's see, Germany took over Austria and Czechslovakia, invaded Poland, Belgium, Holland, Luxembourg, France, Norway, Denmark, Yugoslavia, Greece, North Africa, and Russia. And Iraq invaded...Kuwait.
Germany had one of the most potent militaries in the world, and developed some of the most advanced weapons of the time: V2 rockets, the best tanks, and the first effective jet fighters. And the Iraqs had...the Republican Guards.
Germany had one of the most vicious organized killing machines. Their implementation of the 'Final Solution' brought mass genocide to a highly evil and efficient industry. Depending on estimates, they were responsible for the deaths of from 15-40 million combatants and non-combatants. And Iraq had...Saddam.
Yup, good comparison. The US invading Iraq now is comparable to if the US had invaded Spain in 1940. |
