You want to blame George Bush for the mass murders? Just maybe these people died because without liberty, death is a justifiable alternative. "What is it that gentlemen wish? What would they have? Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!" Patrick Henry James

Nikita > I get absolutely incensed that George Bush has the gall to say that he hopes to spread "democracy" across the globe. It's a vicious and cruel lie to the hundreds of millions of innocent people who have been the victims of the U.S.'s high handed and completely unfair foreign policies Firstly, I didn't write that, Raymond did. Secondly, I'm no lover of US foreign policy but I do believe that "hundreds of millions of innocent people" is a more than a little bit "over the top". Thirdly, since it's clear that Raymond was very upset when he wrote that sentence you will recall I advised him to "get a grip" on himself. > Finnish forensic experts will travel to Iraq on Wednesday to examine mass graves for evidence to be used in a war crimes trial against Saddam Hussein I'm no lover of Saddam Hussein, either, but before anyone decides to condemn him for what he did it's well to bear in mind that he was a big ally and friend of the US/CIA throughout the whole period that he was busy killing people and putting them in mass graves. I refer to the Iraq/Iran war which, in fact, he fought as a US proxy against the Ayatollah. As we know, millions perished in that war and so mass graves are no surprise and no secret.
