$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Gerontion', '')$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('OilIsMastery', 'T')errorism is deliberately targeting civilians. The United States doesn't do that.


The US-UK sponsored Iraqi sanctions resulted in the deaths of between 300,000 and 500,000 children.

Thank God George W. Bush ended the sanctions and saved the lives of over 1 million Iraqi children from the cruelty of Saddam Hussein.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'T')his was a medieval siege. The deaths didn't happen by accident and those in power were not unaware of them; when asked about this holocaust being visited on the Iraqis, Madeline Albright famously said, "it's a price worth paying." Nice.

Thank you Saddam Hussein. Also the Butcher of Belgrade Madeleine Albright is subhuman sewage.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'O')r how about the carpet bombing of South East Asia? Millions died in this. Where they military targets? Do me a favour.

I guess all those Vietcong and Khmer Rouge with Soviet Kalashnikov's were "peaceful civilians."

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'A')nd the fact that the US government largely sub-contracts its murder and rape to death squads operating at arm's length hardly absolves it from guilt.

You'll have to be more specific. If you mean Bill Clinton and the Democrat Party I think I know what you're talking about.

Yup he's neo-con and he believes in abiogenic oil :lol:

He tries the most naive persuasion I have ever seen...
Peak oil is only an indication and a premise of limits to growth on a finite planet.

So you believe that it was to help the people of haiti? Not to ensure that a state close to the US didn't become an unfriendly regime. I accept that the result was probably favourable to haitians, but that is still not the reason for the intervention. Otherwise the US would intervene all over the world. If Haiti was in the middle of africa, say next to Rwanda then the US would have done nothing as there would be no percieved threat to US interests.

Absolutely. If Saddam Hussein wasn't a "nasty bastard" he would've complied with the United Nations resolutions and war would've been avoided. He didn't compy with any of them.


Like Israel does? They were in breach of more UN sanctions than Iraq at the time of the invasion.

Zero imo. Iraq can only produce 3 million barrels a day. The United States consumes 30 million barrels a day. If the United States wanted oil it would be far cheaper to invade Canada or Mexico which have far larger oil reserves.

Are you serious? I don't know what to say. The US considers ME oil as a vital interest and will use their military to defend its access.

Not only did Saddam Hussein use Iraqi oil reserves as WMD he also used Kuwaiti oil as WMD. Perhaps you recall the worst environmental disaster in world history? Thanks again Saddam Hussein.

Yes, Saddam was a bastard I already conceded that. He was also not very bright. Invading Kuwait was a stupid thing to do above all else.

He was against the war, not pro the regime. Surely you can tell the difference.
I can't tell the difference. If you're not willing to back regime change with guns you might as well not even say it. Words are meaningless when it comes to regime change.

If you can't tell the difference between being against our support for a barbaric regime and then also being against the invasion causing untold missery then I guess I will just have to accept that you have a different and unusual view of the situation.

Terrorism is deliberately targeting civilians. The United States doesn't do that. Militant Muslims in Iraq do. That's why Muslims in Iraq have killed a hundred times as many Iraqi civilians as the United States military. Maybe now you can take the time to look up the definition of terrorism.

Nicaragua (US) and Lebanon (UK) killed civilians.

During shock and awe whole buildings were destryoed where people were working, to earn a living, to feed their families. Wedding parties in Afghanistan.

It was Eli who told me something about moral dualism. It is not right for us to do it to them just as much as it is not right for them to do it to us. I also doubt your assertian about insurgents/terrorists, whatever they are killing more than the occupying forces, but I'm not going to look it because war is war, doesn't matter to me who kills more, ordinary people do not win.

The reason why you are wondering which ad hominem to use is because you don't know how to debate the issues. The truth is shocking I guess.

What does that have to do with what I posted? It's obvious to me that the Democrats that control the United States government are my enemies which is why I support Republican tax cuts and Republican spending cuts.

You're right, I should check to see what total US consumption for 2007 will be before I insult your intelligence. It is definitely possible that US motorists will consume an additional 10 million barrels this year, after all...

Increasing Iraq's oil production was definitely high on the list of your beloved neocons' priorities, which like all their other plans has gone swimmingly.

I'd swear you're nothing but another incarnation of Aaron messing with our heads, but your blog looks all too real to be BS. I'd put you on Ignore but you utter the most fantastic things every time out, saying that bridge collapsed due to God's wrath for instance. Keep 'em coming. Maybe you're really Jerome Corsi?

Peak oil is here. The inevitable consequences are beginning to unfurl before our eyes. I suggest we'd be making better use of of our time
using the internet to learn/exchange information and skills for possible survival, rather than being seduced (fun though it is) into pointless 'shooting fish in a barrel' arguments, with people whose synapses aren't joined together.

George Galloway say's FU to Saddam in his own special way.....
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ssdbfYqG ... ed&search=


He is hated by the left and much of the UKs anti war movement for being such a media whore. The anti war movements most articulate and capable spokespersons included former foreign secetary Robin Cook, one of the great intellectual parlimentarians of his era, Tony Benn very well educated and erudite spokesman former senior cabinet minister, Charles Kennedy the most personaly popular politician of the time and many other people of impecable human rights records. Instead GG jump up and down to get as much media coverage for himself and the prowar press obliged making him spokesman for the anti war movement to help make it look ludicrous. He obliged in spades.

He is also strongly strongly linked to bringing communal politics into the UK with his Respect vanity vehicle. For a man who was an avowed anti Troskiest in the 80s he has jumped into bed with the Trotskiest opnely entryest Socialist Workers Party and the blatantly Islamist MAB (strongly linked to the Muslim Bortherhood).
