Gee, BBB, I for one didn't cheer the death of Karla Faye Tucker, nor do I take any pleasure or amusement in Americans or Iraqis perishing, nor do I warm to the thought that anthrax will be sprayed across the world. Saddam is playing a very high stakes game and is using his own people as shields. Perhaps you should e-mail him your concerns.

Yo...BB Brain! All evidence available to us indicates the human is the only creature on this planet with the ability to reason. And in doing so we realize this is not heaven, nor can we make it that.

The truly sad thing about the situation in Iraq is its people and its neighbors. The people of Iraq have failed to gain control of their own country...and therefore are dictated to, forced to serve in Saddam's army, murdered, dosed with chemical weapons and the Kurds suffer from attempts of genocide.

Their neighbors do little if anything for them...but what else should one expect from Kings, religious fanatics and dictators?

I for one cried when the Gulf war started. Because I knew many would be killed. Some innocent, some serving a cause they believed in, and some forced to be there against their will.

I sided with President Bush to stop the war when we did, because the killing did not serve our objective...since that had already been accomplished.

Since he has used them in the past...only a fool would think this guy Saddam has no intention of using his OFFENSIVE weapons in the future. If not, why does he insist on having them?

You say we will be slaughtering tens of thousands of Iraqi civilians. If anyone is blowing anything up it's you...those are some very high numbers.

His hiding behind his own innocent men, women and children is certainly a dilemma, nevertheless...those weapons must go before he has a system to deliver them. It's possible he can already hit Kuwait. And the U.S. and Israel are at the top of his list.

I agree with you 100%, we should start preparing ourselves for the pictures of the human shields and the innocent being killed maimed and wounded. Also the same goes for many of the untrained saps in his military.

Sorry the world's not perfect,

Scrapps

PS

I don't think I like you...you complain without providing an answer or even a suggested one, all the while putting down people who don't share your view.

It must be hard for you, being the only perfect person.

Bo Bob Brain,

We would not have had the "Karla Faye Tucker" problem if we hadn't
waited 14 years to execute her.

Are you suggesting we give Iraq 14 years to see if "we can all just get along"?

You did not post a solution. The options are terrible. I for one
suggest we wait 5 years and let Iraq kill a few hundred thousand of
his neighbors then we nuke the slate clean! Kill'em all and let God
sort'em out! Maybe at the same time the winds will help his weapons
take out a few commies.

How's that for a right wing conservative response?

I would like to hear your solution since you did not post one that I
could find. As Scrapps said, we do not live in a perfect society.
Liberals are still trying to create one. And no, I did not suggest
you are a liberal.
