  1. Re:bin laden vs. safer on Saddam Hussein Arrested · · Score: 1

    I think the reason they went in was a long run/short run question. In the short run, there would be more dangers to the US, in the form of troops being attacked. In the long run, however, we would remove a dictator that gassed his own people and (probably) paid out a ton of money to terrorists.

    The freedom to be declared enemies if you don't believe in a war?

    I do believe you are speaking of France. We are not declaring them enemies. We are pissed off because they stabbed us in the back pre-war and caused more US Soldiers to die than should have.

    ...which were partially given to Iraq from your retarded government and help settle the scores the Bush's had with Iraq in the fact they lost the first Iraq war to yet another third world country

    Umm what world are you living in? We won that war. Hell, we kicked their asses. We went to Kuwait and liberated it, and got the hell out. It's what we came to do. This time, we came to get Saddam out. And we did. Hooray.

    Look: If we didn't have the sanctions, Saddam would've had 30 palaces instead of 10. He kept any money that came in for himself.

    And at least we got our shit together and took him out sooner rather than later. If we had left him there, more and more Iraqis would've died. I don't give a shit about WMDs, but the people of Iraq.

    I just wish they would make a new server for US only so there wouldn't be a thousand uber-japanese already playing when you first join. It would be interesting to see how the US server economy played out as opposed to the Japan servers. Thats really the only thing stopping me from getting it: If I buy a new game, I want it to be NEW dammit!

    It still does not take away from the fact that it sounded like he was the sole inventor of the net. Just because he was a congressman during the pushing for its opening to the world doesn't mean he had anything to do with its creation and/or the voting for it. He likely had absolutely no idea the implications it would have in the future, but just thought "hey, lets let the anti-socialites play with their toys". It was (in my opinion) just a line to impress the voters (the dumb ones at least) and people need to get over it.
