See here in lies a problem, if i'm not mistake france, germany and russa do alot of business with Iraq, does this mean that the people that sit on the UN for those countries would rather do business with iraq then goto war? I'm going to have to say yes considering that none of those 3 countries are willing to goto war.

I feel that the UN is to soft spoken on issues and isnt' fast in reacting to world issues; like Iraq. This is were I feel the US, britian and any other free nation just needs to step in. Maybe starting a war with everyone isnt the answer and I know its not and dont support war in that manner. I do feel however that a nation like Iraq with all thats going on over there does need firmer treatment by the UN. This hasn't happened yet and thats why I support war in Iraq. with me so far?

but its i think its just as bad as saying they dont want a war cause its not in there best interest and we DO want war because its in our best interest... so 6 of one half a dozen of another... get what im saying? im saying if we as a nation want something that is in our best interest then we need to petition the UN to allow that to happen.. does it happen quick enough??? no of course not.. NOTHING politaical happens fast enough.. but i still dont think that it gives anyone the right to go off like crazy starting problems..

heres where im at..
is war NEEDED in iraq? im not sure.. if NEW UN violations are found and NOT delt with then yes probably, but as long as they (iraq) are compliant (even SLOWLY) compliance is the ULTIMATE goal right? war to me is NOT the ultimate goal.. id RATHER see the US KEEP pushing the security council to disarm them.. even if it is a PAINSTAKING process.. you all seem to think they have some bad ass weapons.. SO WHY THE HELL WOULD YOU WANT TO SEND TROOPS THERE.. so he can use them??? i STILL believe diplomacy CAN work in this matter...



should the US make Saddam leave? ABSOLUTELY NOT it violates EVERYTHING i believe it.. he IS the nations leader however he got there.. if he is bad enough the people will rise against him... and things will change as they did for the founders of america.. its not easy but i DONT think its our job to meddle in other countries politics...

one last thing... i think you all took what i said before about his manor out of context.. i do honestly believe he is a MUCH better polotician than bush... i really believe that.. i DONT think he is the monster we make him out to be (relative to his nations culture) we can NOT compare his acts to our morals and cultures... i AM NOT sayign he is a good man... i NEVER said he was good to his people or i would want to live in iraq (with any seriousness)
