But we could use diplomacy to engage the UN to serve a greater role. With no WMD, with the tryant Saddam now captured, there's no reason at all why our soldiers need be sitting ducks in the Iraqi communities, just to protect some insider oil deals. One still has to ask: Why was it that only the Iraqi Oil Ministry building was protected once the Americans gained control of the country? All other government buildings, including the museums were ransacked and looted--but not the Iraqi Oil Ministry building. Don't you find this a bit odd? And do you think the parallel of both Bush and Cheney being oil men has any resemblence to this kind of reality? Be fair in your analysis and response to this. Please! Repair and restoration of Iraq's oil program should come under the purview of the UN; building a constitution and establishing elections for the Iraqi people can also come under the purview of the UN, as it is able to land a peacekeeper force to help oversee those elections. Try and answer this, if you can: Why should our soldiers continue to die and have their limbs torn off when the supposed objectives of the war have already been gained? Believe me, USA veterans are seriously gonna start pounding on this question.
