And where are the admissions that The President of the USA was not just making up the story that Saddam Hussein has and is willing to use Weapons of Mass destruction? I know Colin Powell's presentation made world news, and I know that all the pundits seem to ackowledge that the evidence is clear....I haven't seen many members on here make the admission and/or the apology. We should all have enough character to admit when we are wrong.

Edited the Typo I have been missing for a while.

I don't remember to many people denying that Saddam had WoMD???

I do remember a lot of people speaking out against war though. And i won't apologize for that.. in fact i'll re-iterate: war sucks.

We should all have enough character to admit when we believe we are right and say: "I told you so." [img]smile.gif[/img]

And from what i hear all the pundits are not so acknowledging that the evidence is clear.. Especially with the Al Queda - Iraq links.

neither do I-call me daft, but I don't want anyone at all to have WoMD AND I don't want a war. War is pointless, IMO. We never learn anything from it. *sigh* I'll butt out of this forum now.

So war is pointless and no one should ever go to war....would that mean you would rather be speaking German right now? Just curious.

You say no one ever learns from war, not so at all...first off War in and of itself is not really ment to be a learning experience but it has been war and it's waging that has been one of the prime motivators of scientific breakthroughs throughout human history...like it or not, humans learn more quicker during war than at any other time.

IR, no I was not being sarcastic, I was being literal, people should admit that they are/were wrong. I for one DO remember several members saying that SH did not have WoMD and that Bush was just making it all up.

I make it a point to come back and admit my mistakes and some even hold me to that, so I would just like to see some return on this kind of issue.

I've noticed a funny thing though, a lot of people who were saying he didn't have such weapons or there wasn't enough evidence that he had them, were immediately saying: the US shouldn't invade, he might fire missiles with chemical stuff into Israel or Europe. I don't mean people on this board btw, i've heard comments like this on the street, and some on TV.

And another one: While Iraq is swearing they don't have such weapons, they say they WILL attack Israel with chemical and biological missiles. I heard that in the news last week. But i guess we shouldn't worry, since he doesn't have them..... yeah right.

Johnny I have also noticed the same inconsistancies, it is almost humorous except that war is not really very funny. I think we need to go in and forcibly remove Saddam, but Im not celebrating the need to do it.

I notice that France, Germany and Russia's real motivations are coming out now, they want to go in and administer their investments...errr I mean send in UN troops to take care of their investments....errr no it isn't about the oil...really.....errr....
