>>if we sell them stuff, then we have some say in how they use it... << That's the argument, that was used also in the case of OBL, Norriega etc etc. And, oh yes, Saddam Hussein.

<Oh BS!! You're just trying to avoid acknowleging any points whereby this war is justified by using straw man logic... > No, I plainly said in my previous post what a wonderful opportunity to form a coaliton we pissed away. I'd have to sit down and think about how many of our 'friends' going with us I'd have wanted. more than we have, and a pointless exercise now. All your other blustering is doing the same you're accusing me of... looking back. In your words 'WHO CARES WHAT HAPPEND WITH UN in 1995? <Listen.. think it through... if we sell them stuff, then we have some say in how they use it... > Tell bin Laden that. In your words, "Oh BS" <If someone else sells them weapons, then we have NO control...> I think if you look at the world and who has our weapons vs 'their' weapons you'll find little differnece in who is 'good' vs 'bad' based on that correllation. <Obviously.. I look at the reality and you're viewing human relations through rose colored lenses... > No, I'm inviting others with various colored lenses to compare and put together the best lense we can. You're assuming your lense is truth. Now, if you really want something to get your teeth into, why don't you do a correllation study on the arms that I mentioned above. You can report back next month :) DAK
