The only difference between now and then is that I have to take my shoes and my hat off when I get on a plane flight. If terrorists had 5-8 fairly buff guys on a plane today, they could easily overpower the crew and passengers unarmed.

Sorry Im getting a weeeee bit off topic. Im sorry but these statement makes me laugh out loud. You can take two or three guys that know how to fight and take 5-8 buff guys out very quickly.

if the US was to take any action against iraq, it should be getting rid of the trade embargo, and making nice. then guess what, the iraqis get happy, cause they have food and other things needed for daily life. by doing tht it shows the US might care about more than just freaking oil.

Just a little fact there is money the kurds and the iraqi's are getting in equal amounts. The kurds have the higher state of living than the Iraqis yet each part gets the same amount of money. It isn't the money its whats being done with it. Dam it I wish I could source all of this stuff but all I remeber it is from tv news stations.

What news organizations do you patronize, exactly? Media conglomerates such as Fox, MSNBC, CNN, etc., report very little actual ‘news.’ Their programming is driven by advertising dollars, just like any other television network, and their success depends entirely on maintaining viewership. It’s all nothing more than a clever deception that, sadly, has many people fooled. They provide you with an overwhelmingly pro-American visage of world politics, feed you one or two dissenters on occasion to legitimize themselves, and bow down to the almighty power of popular opinion. There are, of course, some news organizations that still maintain a reputation for fair, unbiased reporting, such as the New York Times and Wall Street Journal, but, by and large, television and internet news organizations do very, very little to find the truth. The truth is often unpopular and popularity sells soft drinks.

Using your logic I can no longer source anything and make a valid arguement.
