If Saddam is a threat ...

Why dont they just go in and kill the ba$tard.. Why do they have to carpet bomb and kill the civilians and OCCUPY the land … Let the people chose their leaders and governers .. What interest US has in the leadership team building? Ahh .. I see .. They want a puppet Govt that would allow US companies to drain oil … me likey the plan … [if me was Bush] …

Now dont give me a rat’s ass commentary that the US forces cannot go in and just kill the dictator-hole ..

Its MORE than Saddam …

Their not going to carpet bomb civilians. Like it or Saddam is not an easy man to get to.

Why dont they just go in and kill the ba$tard..

Why does 'nt the US govt hire some hitman to go after Saddam

It would be all the more cheaper.

Re: If Saddam is a threat …

Robert Fisk talks about the sinister and influential men around Bush that are driving the admin policy in Mid East and reshaping the geo-political map in the region. Ill quote a excerpt from his article:

Of course there is more to the story. You really to ask these UN bashers, now that you cannot manipulate the UN to gain advantage, you have turned against them. I will like to remind you, it is the same UN that was incharge of UNSCOM...headed at that time by Robert Burke and Scott Ritter. Both of them, frequently provided the information to US intelligence agencies (NSA and CIA) collected in Iraq during the inspections before they were presnted to UN. This pattern went on all through the Clinton administration. On several occasion Scott Ritter got his directives from Madeline Albright. Now let me ask you, was UN relevant then. Be honest.... of course it was. US was getting the information and used to plan several assasination attempts on Saddam. They failed each time.

Let me enlighten you about the Operation Desert Shield. Clinton ordered the go while he was in Israel. One of the reports prepared by Scott Ritter and Robert Burke was presented to Clinton Entrouge in Israel. This report contained documents that were supposed to be for UN not US or Israel. UN security council memebrs heard the report summary from the news media before they could get their hands on it. It contained detailed maps, documentation of the Iraq's militray location, air bases and internal workings of Iraqs defense ministry.

Of course now that UN cannot be manipulated to US advantage its irrelevant.
US claims that it will help liberate the iraqi people. Really, lets start with Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar and Bahrain first.

Saddam is evil, i believe that. He is a ruthless killer, but strategies based on lies and deciet are not durable and can only cause more harm than good.

.. then how can they destroy bridges, roads and other structures and build them again with iraqi money and american companies.... who would buy their warheads if they dont show a spectacular exhibition in sky..

If they truly wish to liberate the people of Iraq, why didn't they do it in 91? If Saddam was evil and his removal was the only means of disarming Iraq, why didn't they do it in 91?

The coalition didn't want to go ahead with it?? The UN mandate didn't cover that?? The coalition now is near non-existent. The world doesn't want to go ahead with it, at least not in this way. The UN mandate does not explicitly cover it this time either - even if it did, the countries responsible for it have by not supporting action made a de facto repeal of it.

We are disregarding the world in every way now. Why was it so important to bother with it back then? Was Bush I lazy, stupid, or racist?

It wasn't part of the UN mandate. The administration thought Saddam would fall from power. America failed the Iraqi people, The UN failed the Iraqi people.

My God at this late hour people still believe it's about Saddam?

UN again?? Cut the hypocrisy... It has been discounted to a bag of trash already.. You do you need to quote it every single time

You mean in 1983 and 1984 when Rumsfeld went to wine and dine with him? Did he plant some dodgy pretzels in Saddam’s plate to try to kill him? :rolleyes:

Exactly this is what the majority here in Europe is discussion as well.
They have the capability to do so, they have the technics, the technology, the know how.
But what hinders them to do so you already "answered": it's MORE than Saddam.
