I'm just pretty disgusted with people that hold ideology over seeing Iraqis getting their first taste of freedom in 25 years.
"wah it doesn't fit my world view - you guys killed people"
Fuck up. Even if the coalition forces inadvertedly killed 2 or 3 THOUSAND (which I doubt) civillians, it's probably less than Saddam's score for a year. Liberating 8 million people as well as the future generations is worth every drop of blood spilled.
Go ask THEM. I bet you'll get a similar answer.

Going to bring Tristan to see the M's beat the A's tomorrow. It'll be tough - we were an Orange County family once so we had a lot of love for the Angels.

We did something about the situation we were in, and didn't sit around waiting for the US to "liberate" us. We didn't require a penny of government support when we arrived and have become productive (contributing to the tax base) members of society.
If you can't see the difference between helping people who come to your country and invading another country to help people, then we probably cannot have an intelligent discussion on the matter.

Until you elucidate on HOW you got out of the USSR, I can't really comment one way or another.
I maintain that you are a hypocrite, that much is indisputable. So in your view, paramedics cannot cut people out of car wrecks - they have to extricate themselves before they get medical treatment?
Does the hostage have to take out the bank robbers? The child have to kill the abusive dad?
Again, STFU and post some new screenshots of HW2 please. You suck at the arguing.
agreed alex. but was the average russian in the same financial situation the average iraqi or afgani is in? Not to downplay your strife or anything but would you say you had it a bit better....hmm maybe a bit easier is the word im looking for than the average iraqi? Easier in terms of picking up and leaving.Marweas said:
The USSR never had religilous fanatics flying planes into buildings, blowing up their embassies around the world, hijacking planes, etc. Iraq was a danger to the United States; not at this time, but they were developing WMDs and showed an inclination to use them. Are we supposed to wait until we have a chemical, biological or nuclear attack in this country?
The special forces found terrorist training camps in Northern Iraq; the coalition forces found stockpiles of atropine, chemical suits, and handbooks on how to wage chemical warfare.
The USSR distintegrated due to political and economic pressures; the people did not do a thing to facilitate its reform. Iraq is completely different: it was ruled by a sadistic despot who kidnapped, tortured and murdered his own people, invaded neighboring countries, used chemical weapons on his own people and neighboring countries (Iraq used chemical weapons in the Iran-Iraq war), and supported terrorist activities against this country.
