Ok let me get this straight....Cherokee has implied that the human rights abuses commited by Saddam Hussein was not one of the reasons for going to war against Saddam and that it was "added on later".
This is disproven by the fact that he was tried and executed for his crimes against humanity and not because he "Violated U.N. sanctions". Now he's said that this war is not about the Iraqi people. Obviously it is since in the words of our Commander and Chief, one of our main goals was to liberate them from the hands of an evil tyrant.
Bullchit! You’re trying to twist chit around again. (You really suck at it)
Do you deny the fact that it was the violations of the UN resolutions that lead to military actions? The fact he killed his own people wouldn’t have done jack chit to jumpstart an invasion. How many did he kill after the Gulf War? Look at the number of people who die each and every month around the world from people just like Saddam.
Your bullchit about crimes against humanity didn’t hold any water for Bush and it damn sure doesn’t hold any water for you now. The world doesn’t fooking care. Just like it didn’t care about the people of Rwanda. (Close to one million dead in 100 days).
But hell lets look at this little fact..
April 5 1991
RESOLUTION 688 (1991)
Adopted by the Security Council at its 2982nd meeting on 5 April 1991
Demands that Iraq stop its repression of the Iraqi civilian population.
Security Council resolution 688 (1991) on the situation between Iraq and Kuwait
Tell me something why wasnt anything ever done about it?..hmmm?
Are you still following? Aside from all these contradictions Cherokee has manage to construct in a very wierd manner. You seem to agree with me that liberating the good people of Iraq was one of the reasons for invading Iraq. So now I find myself in a very odd possition. I'm trying to figure out how you can be arguing with me and clearly agreeing with every point I've made so far at the same time.
Why cant you grasp the FACT that liberating Iraq was added on by bush was just bullchit for the American people to buy? From the sounds of it you bought plenty.
On top of that. Cherokee has also stated that he doesn't care about the Iraqi people, only our troops and that at the same time he supports them in their mission. Obviously as stated by many before me by many of your fellow conservatives(Like NP and Doughgirl.) if you support our troops it's because you care and agree about and with the same things they do.
It is clear that our troops care about the Iraqi people and their
freedom otherwise there would be Mai-Lai like massacres in Iraq being commited by our troops on a regular basis. This, thankfully is not the case. Are you still following? So to say that you dont care about the Iraqi people is a direct insult to what they are there to do, their mission and the reasons they are there and our troops and pretty much means you've just contradicted yourself to a ridiculous extent. Thank you very much.:2wave:
I’ll try and explain this one more time one more time.
The only concern I have in Iraq is for our troops. PERIOD! After the mess was made I thought “Maybe some good will come of this, Maybe the people of Iraq would stand up and rebuild their country”. Note that I never supported the means/reasons we went into Iraq but the mess is made and we must clean it up.
Now the people of Iraq have decided they don’t want a better life, they don’t want a better place to raise their kids. They want to slaughter themselves instead of building a free Iraq. This is why I don’t care if they live or die.
Some believe they can still salvage the country and I support their decision but it doesn’t mean I have to like the Iraqi people by any means. If our Troops said today “We tried but its no use, we need to pull out” I would support their decision and greet them as proud warriors on their return home and I still wouldn’t give a chit about the Iraqi people.
Now did you follow all of that or do I need to draw it out in crayon for you?
