I am richer than Bill Gates. Just try and prove I'm not. Oh... you are looking at the updated link.

I jsut watched the video twice and it did not say that at all chuck. The one thing I did find odd was that the reporter said that it soudned "strangely political" given the timing so close to the election. I think you are blowing smoke. 2 times I watched it and never did it say that the compound was not searched entirely.

...and I also wonder hwo it isn't an emintent threat when someone who has tried to assasinate a former president, funds terrorists, and murders his people and has threatened our country has 1000's of tons of an explosive that can bring a plane down with less than a lb.

and skip shit like this... Annan and this... Oil for Terror

Why are you not angry about Kofi Annan's involvement in Food for Oil? What about the terrorist links of Saddam. I wonder why you are not rampaging about these humanitarian tradgedies. Because of politics? Is that it?

If anything, I see that the media would rather crucify bush on iraq so they choose to show the more violent and controvertial war.

There are new news stories about afghanistan everyday. I think you are hyperbolizing when you say that no-one knows about afghanistan. If you read the newspapers, you will get stories about afghanistan. Furthermore, I fail to see how it is the Bush administration's fault that Afghanistan is in the news.

Our Soldiers didn't leave; one need only look at the news to see our attention did. Perhaps you should look inot the acronym for news and you will see why they are not covering it anymore.

Our Soldiers didn't leave; one need only look at the news to see our attention did. Ohhh... so you are saying that what the media thinks= what the people think. Well... that would explain Seattle, but I don't think you are going to be able to prove that correlation.

Of course they did. THey had to know where to send the checks. If what you mean by "squeeze the juice" is get illegal oil, then yes I know they did this. If you are implying that the economic sanctions were hurting him any, you obviously don't remember how much money he had when he took off. Money that is and was beign spent on terrorist opperations. There was an article in wired just yesterday about that. I don't think economic sanctions do shit.

So I wonder CJ, would you support an attack of Iran or Saudi Arabia then? Or would you want to put "pressure" on them like we do with Cuba so that the only people who suffer are the citicens rather than the dictator? Economic sanctions are ridiculous and have little or no effect on the leader. Look at Saddam... the fucker had how many dozens of palaces? I don't think he was bumming it at all.

I am not sure what you mean about discouraging students. I have many friends from Albania and other former Easter Bloc countries that are studying in the states. I agree about Saudi Arabia, and also Iran. I am sure they are next. WHo has said we are done in Afghanistan? This is a ridiculous statement. Are you implying that we left Afghanistan to go to Iraq because I have a buddy from High School that is still in Afghanistan and he might like to know about this.

Nevermind then...

Funny, this thread seems like conservative wanking Well cough up an answer then. What would you have done. Or more importantly as November is almost here; What would John Kerry have done?

You are dodging. Should we have done nothing? I will ignore the fact that there were 10,000 instalations which had expolsives and just say that we can take responsibility to keep this on track. You have still not stated what you think we should have done. For people who always have the answers and can critique the failures of others, you sure seem to be sorely lacking.

I would say it is certainly better than nothing; a position seemingly taken by the rest on this board. You can have your Free Tibet! stickers on your subaru and feel good that you are sving the planet, but unless you are willing to face the facts that some problems cannot be remedied with subarus and bumper stickers and must be cured with rifles and tanks you will never be a part of the solution. How do you want to free Tibet? With a bumper sticker?

When you sign huge farm subsidy bills what else you going to do with it Well what are you going to do? This vague... help the 3rd world shit is liberal ass-cover. Suggest something to do to fix it and then do it. That is why people like GWB. Even though he may be the greatest fuck-up in the world, he at least believes in something and does something about it. Far better than just tyring to rationalize the situation crying about 3rd world famine. If you think that is the answer, what are you prepared to do about it? I believe that there would be little 3rd world famine if it weren't for the leaders of 3rd world countries. You canno tell me that there is not enough money to feed their country when Saddam has 38 palaces. Please. You blame the H2 drivers in the U.S. for the hunger of a people who's leader is a billionaire?!?!? please!!

How would the palestinians put Arafat on trial. Please. How would the Iraqui's put Saddam on trial without our help? They can't because these 3rd world countries are fucked up. They are not fucked up because of us, they are fucked up because their leaders are tyrranical billionaires that have 38 palaces and eat caviar and have 400 wives while the rest of their country starves. You say that we should help out the 3rd world? Well I say that we just did. By catching that ass hole and letting the Iraquis try him for the rape of their women, the murder of their children and the slaughter of their brothers.
