Nor the thousands of innocents that will likely die if we don't wipe out such regimes. Proportion yerself. ---------------------------------------------------------------- DEAL WITH IT. Americans: a pack, not a herd. Never mind all the mass graves. Where's the nerve gas? [link\|http://www.angelfire.com/ca3/marlowe/index.html\|http://www.angelfire...arlowe/index.html]

After all, the folks appointed by Bush to run Iraq "in the meantime" is hiring the very people that put them there, aren't they? Saddam himself could only have personally killed a very small percentage of those people; the rest were killed by the folks that worked for him in his secret police... you know, the ones that are being actively recruited by the occupying power. The cloak of "we did it for the victiiiiiims" doesn't wear very well for the very people that put those people there and gave him the tools to do the job properly. You know, Rumsfeld, Rove, et al in the early eighties. Minds for whom rationality is the be-all and end-all like to pretend that history doesn't matter... esp. when it helps them to disguise the stench of the corpses they helped to create. --\n-------------------------------------------------------------------\n* Jack Troughton jake at consultron.ca \n [link\|http://consultron.ca\|http://consultron.ca] [link\|irc://irc.ecomstation.ca\|irc://irc.ecomstation.ca] \n Kingston Ontario Canada [link\|news://news.consultron.ca\|news://news.consultron.ca] *\n-------------------------------------------------------------------
