What's this? Iraqi's cheering American troops, tearing down posters/statues of Saddam?? <sarcasm>Uh oh...does this mean that we were right all along?</sarcasm>

[Tessian]

<div style='font: 11pt Dominion; text-align: left; '>I'm just waiting for someone to be big enough to admit that this was needed and right. Most of the world hates the US and Bush for this shit and now it's finally becoming obvious that most of the world was wrong.</div>

<div style='font: 10pt Arial; text-align: left; '>Although I think his comments are extremely premature, he does have a point. It will be a pleasurable sight indeed, if all the naysayers' talk of "fanatical resistance by the Iraqi people" proves wrong.</div>

[Tessian]

<div style='font: 11pt Dominion; text-align: left; '>yes, premature because they won't bother to focus on this thing until after the war's over</div>

[ManaMan]

<div style='font: 12pt Arial; text-align: left; '>What, did you expect them to be mad? ANYTHING is better than Saddam... with the exception of like Pol Pot, but that's beside the point. The rest of the world is either 1- pissed at us for flouting the UN, 2- pissed at us for our foreign policies or 3- just plain jealous of us.</div>

[Zhuge Liang]

<div style='font: ; text-align: left; '>The people are simply happy that they managed to survive the bombing you dipshit. This has nothing to do with being right or wrong. It is widely acknowledged that many Iraqi do not like living under Saddam, but that does not mean they wanted their homes to be bombed to kingdom come. Why don't you fly over to Bagdhad to see whether people are as enthusiastic about us being there? Why don't you ask the relatives of those who are dead whether or not they think we are right? Why don't you console those people in towns we've yet to bomb with "USA was right and everyone else is wrong, nyah nyah nyah."

Whether this war is justified or not is one thing. But trivializing it to feed your own ego is downright disgusting.

[kali o.]

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>That border troops and civilians are facing the overwhelming odds of US troops with a measure of acquiescence? Who the hell ever said that wouldn't happen? Hell, I'd be surprised if that didn't even happen in Bahgdad.

Safety of US troops is hardly where opposition to this invasion stems...nor that Iraqi people would do better under new leadership.

So wrong on what, you turnip? Speak if you have something of substance to say...not this juvenile incomprehensible jibberish.

It would interrupt school, but you are still making a choice to put school ahead of military service (notice I am not judging this choice).
