- lars008--You noted that there were ''two Muslim SS divisions''...How many Christian ones were there by way of comparison?
The Jabotinski faction of the Zionist movement, of which Begin and other Israeli leaders were members negotiated with the Nazis to enter the war on their side to toss the Brits out of Palestine... - Reply to this comment

- Whether you support the war or not, it is clear that it is time to come home. We''ve scrooed that country up as bad as any country can be scrooed up. Leave them alone to fix their mess now that Saddam Hussain is gone. Edwards / Richardson 2008.

- "As a member of the House Intelligence Committee, I am keenly aware that the proliferation of chemical and biological weapons is an issue of grave importance to all nations. Saddam Hussein has been engaged in the development of weapons of mass destruction technology which is a threat to countries in the region and he has made a mockery of the weapons inspection process." - Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D, CA), Dec. 16, 1998

"One way or the other, we are determined to deny Iraq the capacity to develop weapons of mass destruction and the missiles to deliver them. That is our bottom line." - President Clinton, Feb. 4, 1998

"If Saddam rejects peace and we have to use force, our purpose is clear. We want to seriously diminish the threat posed by Iraq''s weapons of mass destruction program." - President Bill Clinton, Feb. 17, 1998

"Iraq is a long way from [here], but what happens there matters a great deal here. For the risks that the leaders of a rogue state will use nuclear, chemical or biological weapons against us or our allies is the greatest security threat we face." --Madeline Albright, Feb 18, 1998

- I think some of you need to realize some facts.
The Real Reason We''re In Iraq:
An influential group of conservatives convinced President George W. Bush that it was in America''s best interests to conquer Iraq as a first step toward dominating the oil-producing nations in the Middle East. There was no "exit plan" because we never intended to exit. The plan was, and is, to build military bases in Iraq and stay there forever. Our leaders see Iraq as a place to make money. So Bush & Co. have set up their friends to cash in on the rebuilding of Iraq. - Reply to this comment
- the war is legal
the resumption of hostilities was only a matter of time since iraq broke the ceasefire agreement.....
blame saddam for iraq%u2026%u2026. Even clintoon and the dems wanted the resumption of hostilities back in 1998
"We know that he has stored secret supplies of biological and chemical weapons throughout his country." - Al Gore, Sept. 23, 2002
"Iraq''s search for weapons of mass destruction has proven impossible to deter and we should assume that it will continue for as long as Saddam is in power." - Al Gore, Sept. 23, 2002
Moreover, no international law can prevent the United States from taking actions to protect its vital interests, when it is manifestly clear that there is a choice to be made between law and survival. I believe, however, that such a choice is not presented in the case of Iraq. Indeed, should we decide to proceed, that action can be justified within the framework of international law rather than outside it. In fact, though a new UN resolution may be helpful in building international consensus, the existing resolutions from 1991 are sufficient from a legal standpoint. - Al Gore, Sept. 23, 2002

- lars008, surrender to who? Iraq didn''t start the war, we did. In no way by anyone''s imagination can America be considered to be surrendering to anyone if it leaves Iraq. We went in there, kicked ***, de-Ba''athatized the entire place, dispanded the military and hung Saddam Hussain. If you call that surrendering you''re very confused. I think all of that was bad policy, but I certainly recognize it as a VICORY, even if it is victory in an illegal war. You are a paranoid person. Do you sleep with your lights on? Do you check under the bed to make sure there isn''t a terrorist there? Booga booga booga. Boo!

surrender... good plan... lol
guess you didn''t care what fascist nazi germany was showing either then...
It is convenient for liberals and fascist nazi Islamic muslims to forget that the "Grand Mufti of Jerusalem" went to Germany as a guest of Hitler during WWII...and begged Hitler to find the "final solution" to the jewish problem. This same Grand mufti used his influence to raise Two Muslim SS Divisions in Yugoslavia (Kosovo) and Albaina. These divisions were responsible for the murder of almost 1 Million jews, Serbs and Gypsies.
This same Grand Mufti was the maternal uncle of Yassir Arafat! The Mufti''s war continues today worldwide.

- lars008, I could care less what Hamas TV is saying. They have the right to say whatever they want to say. Since I am not a paranoid fanatic like you it doesn''t bother me nor does it threaten me. America thinks it is supreme afterall and tries to prove it by dropping bombs on as many people in the middle east as it can get away with. Let Americans live in America and care about America and let Hamas live in Palestine and carea bout Palestine. We need to get out of the middle east completely. John Edwards has a plan to end the war.
