First of all :
Cool it girls :-)

For my part I only know what I have read in the press and to be honest I really find it hard to see through the smoke.
Everybody knows that the world will be a better place without Saddam and his followers, but how to get rid of him is not an easy question. I don't think he will be caught ! There is alot of "stinkers" in the area who makes "the little guy's" life miserable and only takes care of them selfes and their families. Saddam is not a "one of a kind". If we (the west) want to have peace in the middeleast we have to make it a complete solution and that includes the problems with Israel. The saudi's have dictatorship too but they are alies. What the difference? They have proberly done their part of breaking human rights too. Israel does it. I could go on.

I'm not against a war in Iraq, I'd just like it to be clear why it should be now and what goals there is to be fullfilled. If its about oil its wrong! if its about balance of power and religions. It's wrong. If its about getting rid of Saddam and his regime, making Iraq a better place to live for the iraqies and maby try to build a bridge between worlds. It could be the way to go. My goverment here in Denmark supports the Cowboy president too. But its only about 35% of the population who does the same.

I find it hard to know what is right. But it would be perferable to have a UN Mandate behind a war. This not an US matter only !!

Don't talk about France selling weapons to dictators. the US have done more than their part in that matter!
