"wanted to" "intentions"
yeah read that I think I mentioned that kind of thing already- over and over. But still, you find Saddam's dreams compelling, I do not- and I especially do not find them a justification for a waste of resources in Iraq, when we should have had our eye on Al Qaeda, who pose more than a maybe, might be, could do, kind of threat. But that's me- I tend to be practical.
And you think "wanted to" and "intentions", with no concrete programs, justifies an invasion of a country, and it's occupation, regime change, and the deaths of 1000's of civilians, as well as over 1000 of our soldiers, and the wounding of over 8000? hmmmm
sorry I don't find it compelling- thought maybe you had found something compelling that I missed, but no, you haven't.
People WILL disagree on such things. There are countries out there who actually are(rather than having "intentions") developing nukes - I wonder why they weren't important enough to invade? I don't find "intentions" a justification for "preemptive" war. I suspect most of the world, and a good portion of Americans (had they gotten access to real facts, and informed themselves) agree with me. |
