Here is the bottom line. The United States is a soverign nation. It does not need approval from any foriegn government (including the United Nations) to defend itself. The game now is to destroy those who have expressed desire to hurt the United States before they can harm us. If you don't like that Stang it's too bad. You are not in charge of keeping America secure and frankly I am grateful for that.
Originally posted by Valerius PoplicolaYeah, those scumbag Iraqi people (including thousands of defenseless women and children) really threatened your livelihood down in Tallahicksee, Florida, didn't they? Do you feel safe now that your mighty army has levelled their country and has brought them "freedom"? 🙄

Originally posted by Valerius PoplicolaYeah, we Canadians are pretty threatening as well.

So when exactly was it when you felt threatened by the Nation of Iraq and its people and their direct threats of harm against you? Did it start during the Anthrax scare or had these feelings been building up since the first Gulf War? Could you qualify for us how threatened you felt?

"Chairmen of the inspections effort report to the UN Security Council that, while Iraq has provided some access to facilities, concerns remain regarding undeclared material; inability to interview Iraqi scientists; inability to deploy aerial surveillance during inspections; and harassment of weapons inspectors.

"Hans Blix states that Iraq still has not made a "fundamental decision" to disarm, despite recent signs of increased cooperation. Specifically, Iraq has refused to destroy its al-Samoud 2 long range missiles - a weapon system that was in violation of the UN Security Council's resolutions and the US treaty with Iraq. These missiles are deployed and mobile. Also, an R-400 aerial bomb was found that could possibly contain biological agents. Given this find, the UN Inspectors have requested access to the Al-Aziziyah weapons range to verify that all 155 R-400 bombs can be accounted for and proven destroyed. Blix also expresses skepticism over Iraq's claims to have destroyed its stockpiles of anthrax and VX nerve agent in Time magazine. Blix said he found it "a bit odd" that Iraq, with "one of the best-organized regimes in the Arab world," would claim to have no records of the destruction of these illegal substances. "I don't see that they have acquired any credibility," Blix said "

But that's another story...
What do you think, Del? Have you ever felt threatened by the people of Iraq on home soil?
Originally posted by zeeblebotThe al-Samed 2 long range missile has a range of approximately 180 km. The distance from my house in Toronto to Buffalo, NY. The Iraqi government was also in the midst of destroying the missiles until the US invaded, disrupting the process.

And we are well aware of the incredibly amassed quantities of WMDs Iraq had, that point need not be brought up.
When this Blix report came out days before the US invaded Iraq, how threatened did you feel by the Iraqi people? Could you please qualify it? And do you feel safe now that the US has rid Iraq of its evil empire?
