Re:The WAR! – Who is on Who’s side?
How long has Bush in power?, and how long does it take his opponents to accuse him of everything under the sun?, is it to be that every successive President must take the blame for the mistakes of the past?
If Bush and Blair are war criminals for ridding the world of it’s most dangerous threat then I must also be a war criminal for supporting their action, and so must a lot of other people.
If the choice was between Bush and Saddam running you’re country are you Bush haters trying to tell me that Saddam is preferable?, until Bush has done what you accuse him of, then I, like many others will put it down too mindless hatred.
I admit I don’t know Bush as well not being an American, but I do know and trust Blair.
You accuse Bush of being a war criminal. why, because you don’t have the stomach for war?, and he has the uneviable task of sending his countrymen to their possible deaths.
You sit at home in comfort while the troops risk their lives to support both their country and President, what makes you right and them wrong?
And you can’t accuse Bush or Blair of being war criminals for undertaking an action that needs to be taken, war criminals by law are those who break the rules of engagement and ignore the Geneva convention, the fact is, is that they are war criminals in you’re mind because you don’t agree with their stance, when in reality you have no justification for that accusation.
The same goes for the anti-war brigade, oh yeah it’s easy too criticize when you don’t have to get your hands dirty, and say these things knowing perfectly well you live in a democratic world that wouldn’t shoot you dead for uttering such words, yet the person that you protesting against is all that stands between you and a tyrant that would happily kill you and your family.
If these people want too protect Saddam and maintain peace why don’t you all leave and join Saddam and see how much more comfortable your lives will be then, oh no, can’t do that can you?, that would mean giving up your cosy protected lifestyles, while men and women in the armed forces give their lives not only to protect you, but also to liberate a country where they don’t enjoy the pampered lifestyle you enjoy…hypocritical cowards.
Everyone’s for peace, but it always comes with a price, and war is that price, no matter how much the anti-war brigade rant and rave they do not offer a better solution, and if their demonstrations were ever successful, all that would have happened is that they would have brought Saddam more time to build his weapons and continue too deceive the world.
Like I said before, most of the voices of resentment come from students, how old were these students 12 years ago, about 6-10 years of age, too young to remember what a threat Saddam posed back then, thank god these people are ignored, because they are idealistic and unrealistic and simply do not know of what they speak, most of all they join in with radicals because those at Uni or college do the same, you see it with each successive generation of teens and it will never change, wait to you get to 30 and I guarantee your views on the world will be very different.
