I would disagree on Saudi feeling safer have you noticed several attacks on foreign workers? how about notification for US citizens to leave as workers? killing of Abdul al Muqrin? CIA has identified Saudi Arabia as supporting terrorists you dont sound like you follow Saudi events or internals but I am sure you do we still occupy Prince Sultan Airfield, which enrages Saudis just no bombing flight sorties can originate from there our actions in Iraq have horribly destabilized Riyadh according to all reports of people who actually visit there as opposed to experts who only theorize and never travel there I have never said Saddam was harmless that is not the point by lying on WMD, ordering intell to support a preconceived point of view, we alienated all of NATO the fact that we belittle NATO now is ludicrous, and evidence of shallow national thought we are as guilty (if not more) for making Saddam the monster he became I seriously doubt USA elements did not have their grubby hands dirty from Oil for Food programs surgical hits of Saddam were my choice from before Baghdad's Shock & Awe which is a bullshit approach we employed the main shock was how many civilians we killed the main awe for me is how few ignoramus US citizens are capable of realizing that insurgents are killing our soldiers NOT BECAUSE THEY HATE OUR FREEDOM BUT BECAUSE WE ARE STEALING IRAQI OIL find me one piece of evidence from accounting that US Forces are properly paying Iraq for oil revenues !!! it is probably guarded under national security my guess is fat cats are taking the money while US Forces are subsidized by taxpayers THIS IS THE FIRST MILITARY ACTION IN OUR HISTORY TO SUPPORT A PRIVATE OIL COMPANY I do not have a history of wild accusations this effing war stinks waving the flag has become tantamount to supporting pre-emptive strikes and seizing another nation's oil treasures I wont wave I think it stinks tactics, style, methods, and underlying rationale is what defines a nation ours stinks / jim
