>> By those standards we're hypocritical to be against slavery <<

our nation changing it's views on slavery is not hypocritical. since when did changing one's mind become hypocritical? it only becomes hypocritical when we attempt to tell other nations that they can't do the very same thing we did.

>> And Kuwait was about oil. Don't kid yourself otherwise. <<

from whose point of view? ours, kuwait's, or iraq's? if you ask the liars in our govt it wasn't about oil. it was about "international law". of course since we don't like saddam hussein we don't particularly care about iraq's view on the matter, which is to say that what is now kuwait was taken from them and they want it back.

another example of imperialists (the british in this case with the stroke of a pen creating kuwait) destabilizing the middle east by trying to force their agenda on the region.

because of interventionism like this we must now pay the price...
