Saddam Hussein Wants A Debate

[Scottie2Hottie]

To all those people that say we are hipocrits because we make weapons and wont let Iraq build weapons---- We can make weapons more one major reason...WE PRETTY MUCH CONTROL THE U.N.... We are the primary seat in the U.N. Countries in the U.N. can make weapons... We do make weapons like everyone else but you forgot one thing... We don't make weapons of mass destruction... We make weapons that are legal unlike Iraq and North Korea...

on the contrary, we have not only resumed our nuclear weapons program, we also have stated that they could be used in retaliation against a chemical or biological strike against our troops. As I type "the US is preparing to use the toxic riot-control agents CS gas and pepper spray in Iraq in contravention of the Chemical Weapons Convention." -(http://news.independent.co.uk/world/...p?story=383006)

Even if Iraq does have weapons of mass destruction, who are we to tell them they can't have them. Quite frankly, they have good reason to. At least two if not three of Iraq's neighbors have nuclear capability. Isreal, Saudi Arabia, and most likely Iran have nuclear programs.

I agree with FAKrogoth, and quite frankly I don't think Saddam is a good guy. but, you must keep in mind America's track record of depicting enemies as barbarians to justify war http://www.knoxnews.com/kns/todays_e...759272,00.html
But, even if Saddam is a horrible man it's not our responsibility to barge our way into a country and try to change thousands of years of tradition because we think it's the better way. Remember, The fetters of Plato's Cave are easy to break, but the will of it's occupants to remained fettered is one of the strongest forces
