For a minute there, I thought you were talking about the anti-war in Iraq crowd in the UN and other European Nations.Originally posted by ASLANSPAL:
Poncho is right to the core...greed is alive and
well in this world and especially in the incompetent management and billions missing and
mis spent in Iraq.

Poncho,
I don't read nor give any credence to looney tune nutcase conspiricy theory websites. Maybe a Democrat can read that and use it in their next Anti-American propaganda campaign.

No Ken I don't have problem with policy analysts planing for potential problems, actions, etc. ahead of time. I do think something is wrong when the policy analysts and planners all come from internationalist organisations that seem to have a disdain for national soverignty in general and American national soverignty in particular.The problem I see with your post, poncho, is that you act as those there is something wrong with policy analysts planing for potential problems, actions, etc. ahead of time.
I certainly hope we have people in our country and the rest of the countries of the world looking ahead. The chances for war increase when policy planners incorrectly anticipate how other countries will react, e.g. Saddam Hussein in 1990 and Osama bin Laden in 2001.
They have got it "in 'em" just as much as you and I and everyone else does, LE. To think otherwise is bigoted to the core.Originally posted by LadyEagle:

I can't remember how many times I have heard that kind of statement from so called "experts" on the Middle East that the Iraqis are too tribal to live in peace.Originally posted by KenH:

That's pretty hollow coming from a liberal.Originally posted by ASLANSPAL:

War profiterring is for real and people make money off of war and greed breeds more greed and
how can I keep this war going in my behalf.
imho
Nice sentiment.Originally posted by LadyEagle:
Thank you, poncho. I'm sick of all of it, including the Pollyana drivel.
Iraq will never be a true democracy and no matter when we get out, they will be killing each other, whether we get out tomorrow or 20 years from now. They ain't got it in 'em, those Muslim Arabs, to live in peace with anyone, not even each other. We should have just nuked the place.
If you check history, Arab Muslims invaded Iraq and have remained. I would be interested to see if you can find anything on the Internet to support your claim that most Iraqis are not of Arabic descent.But FTR, most Iraqis aren't Arabs.
http://biblia.com/islam/islam.htmThe world of Islam would expand far beyond the borders of the Arabian peninsula during their tenure— war after war, to the east into the Persian empire, north into Byzantine territory, and west across the face of northern Africa.
Umar continued the war of conquests begun by Abu Bakr. He pressed into the Persian Empire itself, but he also headed north into Syria and Byzantine territory and west into Egypt. By 640, Islamic military campaigns had brought all of Mesopotamia and most of Syria and Palestine under the control of Abu Bakr. Egypt was conquered by 642 and the Persian Empire by 643. These were some of the richest regions in the world guarded by powerful militaries—and they fell into Islamic hands in a heartbeat http://www.wsu.edu/~dee/ISLAM/CALIPH.HTM
Within a decade they took control of Egypt, Palestine, Syria, Iraq, Iran, all Mesopotamia... capturing Damascus in 635, Jerusalem in 640, Cairo in 641, Alexandria in 642...
Not until we nuked them.BTW, the Japanese didn't have it in 'em either.
LE is correct here.Originally posted by LadyEagle:

Mat 19:26 But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.They ain't got it in 'em, those Muslim Arabs, to live in peace with anyone, not even each other.
