Well Iraq becomes a sovereign nation again tomorrow

Everything will run smoothly. Then in an election about at the most 10-15 years (very good chance it will be sooner) down the road, a leader will become corrupt, create another dictatorship over the nation again, rule it out of fear and everyone will be in the same spot we were in once before.

We say we are there to make these people free. But can you free those who do not want it?

Just so you guys know. It happened one day earlier than what was anounced. Just thought you guys would like to know. ^_^

In my most cynical and pessimistic, this was a massive "up-yours" at NATO by the Bush Administration

Excel - I have had that happen before, and I think what people don't realize is that 90% of the military get their info from the same place as everyone else, CNN. I personally don't have an opinion on Iraq though, I mean, we should probably stay until they're on their feet and running smoothly. Fuck what the rest of the world thinks of us for it.

Let's get some retrospective here...NATO is the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation.

Ok..So in it's name we find the only members can be in the North Atlantic. Hmmmm, Middles East is Indian Ocean and Mediteranian sea....Not North Atlantic.

Treaty organisation you say? So it only applies to the 19 countries that HAVE treaties in said organisation.... But Iraq had a treaty with the US and the US utalized NATO weapons inspectors because guess who FOUNDED NATO...Was it...Hmmm...The U.S.A?! I think it was...I mean the building is on OUR turf.

So now lets see..NATO has NO claim to Iraq in any way shape or form and yet they claim they do...Stoopid people are so funny.

What I find REAL funny is that NATO fully supported Korea AND Vietnam and for some reason we lost one and tied the other.

And NOW NATO doesn't support us and we rolled over the dictatorship like it was made up of safety glass (Bad analogy I know but I suxorz)

So what have we learned class? FUCK NATO!

America is in the business of Ruling the world and business is good! We will own all and everything and nothing can stop us...And EVERY country will one day fall under one banner and if any get out of line with their neighbors America will have the RIGHT to stomp a mud-hole in them and walk it dry.

Foreign countries can keep all of their nifty heiritage and customs and we're perfectly fine...What we're NOT fine with is when they attack their neighbors. Only WE are allowed to do that and it's been a LONG time since we got to attack Canada or Mexico.

Oh and Canada Take Michael Moore the fuck back and let us put up an Iron curtain. While you freeze yer asses off requesting some of our wheat or produce we'll laugh and say, "Thanks for Gretzky, Dave Folley, and a buncha other comedians and sports stars... You can Keep Moore and all your CNN liber fuck-heads."

My big beef with the UN is Res 1440. Every member of the UN signed this document, but how many of them followed through? By not complying with what everyone agreed on, those countries who didn't take action were basically saying "Hey, I can sign a document, but it isn't binding, so there's no way you can take my word for it." That tells our enemies "Hey, don't worry about the UN, they pull punches." Grrrr, I can't believed that THEY were the ones trying to get the US and the UK kicked out.
