Remember when Trump was attacking NATO? Thank your lucky stars he was fired.

Where was the outrage when Putin was gassing civilians in Syria, including women & children? They were the wrong color/religion, that's where. Where were the billion dollar merchants who now all of a sudden seemingly just found out that Putin is a war criminal when that atrocity was happening? Playing footsie with him in Moscow, that's where.

Pet a rattlesnake, you'll get bit.
 
"I will be voting to give the President of the United States the authority to use force — if necessary — to disarm Saddam
Hussein because I believe that a deadly arsenal of weapons of mass destruction in his hands is a real and grave threat to
our security."
Sen. John F. Kerry (D, MA), Oct. 9, 2002.
LOOK AT THE DATE: what happened between OCTOBER 2002 and March 17 2003 before BUSH reached the final days of decision and told this blatant lie.

“Intelligence gathered by this and other governments leaves no doubt that the Iraq regime continues to possess and conceal some of the most lethal weapons ever devised.” DUBYA the DECIDER March 17 2003.

The Bush lie is here:
the Iraq regime “continues to possess and conceal”


There were no inspectors in IRAQ in OCTOBER 2002 KERRY DID NOT LIE. we had no intelligence one way or the other .

HE SAID -
I believe that a deadly arsenal of weapons of mass destruction in his hands is a real and grave threat to
our security."

WHICH IS TRUE dont you think?

READ THE ENTIRETY of KERRY’s speech - IF YOU are interested in context.

2002: Keep the peace by authorizing use of force in Iraq

Yes, Kerry voted to authorize the President to use force against Iraq. But he voted for that in order for Bush to go to the UN and get the inspectors back into Iraq, which Bush lyingly said was the only way to avoid a war.

It sounds counterintuitive that Bush would want an authorization to use force in order to avoid war. But Bush claimed that that's what this was all about. Here's an exchange between Bush and a reporter from September 19, 2002, just before the vote in Congress:

Reporter: Mr. President, how important is it that that resolution give you an authorization of the use of force?

Bush: That will be part of the resolution, the authorization to use force. If you want to keep the peace, you've got to have the authorization to use force. This is a chance for Congress to indicate support. It's a chance for Congress to say, "We support the administration's ability to keep the peace." That's what this is all about.

chris hedges, is a lying piece of crap that does nothing but denigrate the only country that gives him the freedom to spew his bullshit

You link to the vermin as if he is stating some sort of fact or reporting on something.
Chris has spent decades reporting in war zones ranging from Central America to the Balkans to Iraq. You can't handle the truth about your "Exceptional Country", so you lash out at those who report its war crimes; maybe you would be happier in Russia?

I read it, I read everything, I read saddams words as well. There were many reasons to destroy saddam. WMD's were one. And like everything Democrat, it was okay but when Republicans did the same or less, it was lies.
 
CAN YOU EXPLAIN WHY YOU CITE A QUOTE from 1998 about a war that began in 2003?
Can you tell ne why John Kerry said there were WMD's?

Why, because it is part of the terms of surrender that Iraq violated.

Because the democrats said the same, but it was truthful then? Partisan beyond reason.

Not so easy for you to dismiss, that is why.
 
Third, there is a huge difference between placing Offensive Nuclear Weapons at our doorstep and Poland's deployment of defensive anti-missile batteries.
Missiles in Cuba defended against another Bay of Pigs invasion attempt. How did that one turn out? Those Polish "anti-missile batteries" are dual use platforms fully capable of launching offensive strikes against Moscow.
