If you cannot find Osama, bomb Iraq.
If the markets are a drama, bomb Iraq.
If the terrorists are frisky, Pakistan is looking shifty, North Korea is too
risky, Bomb Iraq.

If we have no allies with us, bomb Iraq.
If we think that someone's dissed us, bomb Iraq.
So to hell with the inspections, Let's look tough for the elections,
Close your mind and take directions, Bomb Iraq.

It's pre-emptive non-aggression, bomb Iraq.
To prevent this mass destruction, bomb Iraq.
They've got weapons we can't see, And that's all the proof we need,
If they're not there, they're lying, Bomb Iraq.

If you never were elected, bomb Iraq.
If your mood is quite dejected, bomb Iraq.
If you think Saddam's gone mad, With the weapons that he had, And he tried
to kill your dad, Bomb Iraq.

If corporate fraud is growin', bomb Iraq.
If your ties to it are showin', bomb Iraq.
If your politics are sleazy, And hiding that ain't easy, And your manhood's
getting queasy, Bomb Iraq.

Fall in line and follow orders, bomb Iraq.
For our might knows not our borders, bomb Iraq.
Disagree? We'll call it treason, Let's make war not love this season, Even

I'm coming round to this war. Disarming him peacefully might be possible but the only way to get rid of the fucker is by killing him.

# WAR - HUH, WHAT IS IT GOOD FOR
Stopping the Nazis* say it again now

# if its about liberating the kurds
what's all this "weapons of mass destruction" bullshit - and why hasn't the liberation aspect been mentioned by Bush et al... and only now by Blair because of the widespread cynicism?
Not against overthrowing a tyrant - against the imperialist agenda of the American hegemony.

# Partly. It was the invasion of Poland that started the war.

# It was about stopping Hitler
and that was publicly all it was ever about. Not about some contrived non-compliance rap. In 91, Saddam invaded Kuwait, and while that was about oil, it was right to stop him. This time it isn't. He hasn't done anything he hasn't been doing for years, and we didn't stop him then. What about Tibet? What about Rwanda? What about Zimbabwe? What about Nothern Ireland for fucks sake? isn't it almost the same thing as carpet bombing Belfast to stop the IRA? And you wouldn't fucking support that would you?

read this.

Please... Think of the Agenda

# The Sanctions have been imposed since the end of the war
so the UN has had a legitimate gripe since then. So what, the sanctions have most likely killed many more than a war would have. What does that matter.

Edit: Sorry fella - this is a cuddly message board. We should agree to disagree.
(Mattyboy, Tue 18 Feb 2003, 12:56, archived)
# It matters a lot.
They estimate half a million have died as a direct result of sanctions. Now who do you think is the crueller and more deserving of being removed for the sake of "liberation". Saddam or the US administration?

edit: agreed, but I still find it abhorrent that anyone can support the US agenda in this case.

# So it's right because this piece of paper says it is?
Bollocks to that - in the end, it's not countries that vote at the UN, it's a single guy in a grey suit voting "yes", "no" or "abstain". They vote the way they are directed by their respective leader.

If you want to look for a national leader with a criminal past, who has signed death warrants for his own citizens, who has a nuculur(sic) arsenal, a country with plenty of Anthrax (recently used in attacks on it's own citizens) - a history of chemical weapons use, look no further than the good ol' US of A.

# What really fucks me off with the "it's all about oil" argument is this:
Yes, it is partly about oil. Even if you don't have a car, oil is still vital in your everyday life - whether used as fuel or in the production of plastics. In fact without it the computer you're using to read this wouldn't exist. Now the US has its faults, and has some pretty big ones too, but I would rather see that kind of resource in the hands of a regime that can use it reponsibly. Iraq has massive natural resources, none of which is benefiting the people who live there.

# I'm not sure I can entertain that with a response.
So you're saying...

"Even if it is all about oil, Oil's pretty damn useful isn't it?"

... as justification? Fucking grow up man.

Seriously. If you think ^^ your argument up there is more responsible than wanting to keep some oil reserves out of the control of the worlds largest superpower, whose currency controls three quarters of the world's trade, then I pity you.

# That's not what I'm saying.
Oil is a vital resource, butv it is also a resource that is being misused in Iraq, with very little of its benefits actually reaching the people of the country. Disarmoing Saddam is all well and good, but the only way the people of iraq will get the benefits of their country's enormous natural wealth is by getting rid of him. At the moment it doesn't look likely that he's just going to walk away, does it. I think we both have different viewpoints here, so maybe it's best to agree to disagree.
