The US, Turkey, China, Korea, etc. haven't invaded a neighboring country recently.

The US invaded Panama in 1989 and installed a puppet dictator. In 2001, the US invaded Afghanistan and installed a puppet dictator. But, since they aren't neighbors, it is just fine with you.

Will someone please tell O'Reilly on FoxNews that Iraq didn't "expel the weapons inspectors," as he just claimed in his Talking Points segment. Heck, you'd think some American people just might go ahead and believe him! No wonder Bush has the support of 35-40 percent regardless of how the UN acts.

Grenada, Panama for the U.S.? You mean Turkey didn't move into Cyprus? And I suppose China's been real cool to the dali lama. North Korea? Heck, as Clinton said, their cash crop is exporting missle technology!

>>>He invaded two countries starting major wars.>>>

Invading Iran was as much the US bidding as the US could possibly want at the time. The US armed him to do it! Regarding Kuwait? The British drawn boundary lines landlocked Iraq and Kuwait was once part of the Basra Province. Bush the elder didn't have to start the war--Saddam would have withdrawn his troops if negotiations were more rasonable. Perhaps it should have been a matter for the world court. But, hey, the US don't want no world court!

>>>How much does this guy have to do to make people realize he's not a reasonable person, he's not like most other leaders in the world.<<<

Saddam is a creep. I don't like leaders who lead like he does. Frankly, I'm sick of the whole lot of 'em. But international law does not call for regime change.
