Nice touch Werner, running the US down for having an agenda and here you are hawking your wares!
But life is also horrible in Saudi Arabia, under the anti-Christian, dictatorial government that kills people for the slightest offensive. Yet George W. Bush supports Saudi Arabia, and our nation pours billions of dollars into their economy every year. Also - in Sudan, thousands of Christians are murdered every year, and thousands more are enslaved. And the human-rights offenses in North Korea far exceed those in Iraq.
Is there any imformation that Saudi Arabia has weapons of mass destruction? Or the Sudan for that matter? Maybe it's time for other countries to step up to bat. There is only so much the US can do.
No, I don't think George W. Bush cares about the people of Iraq, because if he did, he would be just as apalled at the crimes these other governments are commiting. Yet he supports some of these governments!! How awful!
It's pretty easy being an arm chair warrior.
No, Bush wants this war not for the sake of the Iraqi people, but simply for his own agenda. It's convenient for him to fight this war. The Iraqi people have nothing to do with it, as far as he's concerned.

Oh yeah! this has really been convenient. Their just around the corner from us! From all the information that has come our way (US), yes, Hussein's government is just as bad as many others but his cruelty is legendary.
He is a known supporter of terrorists, he is the biggest immediate threat to the world and for that matter Israel.
