Saddam got a trial, Qaddafi got a bullet

[francoHFW]

My opinion on OP? We didn't have much to do with it at this point. It's called intelligent diplomacy - Nothing like dumbazz Pub cowboy chickenhawks...and Raygun GAVE Saddam any WMDs Saddam had- see above.

You leftwing turds claim the US provided Iraq with weapons. "Duel use technology" is not weapons. Almost anything can be considered "duel use." A plant for making fertilizer can easily be converted to make explosives. A plant for making tractors can easily be converted to produce armored vehicles.

The claim is a scam. It's horseshit commie propaganda. Anyone who posts it is just another lying leftwing con artist.

Well, Pattycake, there are dumb fucks and really dumb fucks. You are in the latter category.

That appears to be the best argument you can muster. Apparently you didn't notice that you haven't proved a damn thing.

 

[bripat9643]

LOL. You are one stupid bastard, Pattycake. Even the conservatives here admit that.

To what extent did the US supply Iraq with materials used to create weapons of mass destruction? - US - Iraq War - ProCon.org

They only "admit it" because they don't know the facts. These claims have been examined over and over and they are complete bullshit. "Duel use technology" is practically any technology you can name. Anything Iraq bought from the US could be bought from almost any industrialized country in the world. It would have been impossible to stop Iraq from buying it.

YAY!! WHOOPY!! They murdered his family too!! Seriously,why are Americans celebrating this? There will be no benefit to them at all. Cheap oil? Yea don't count on it. And their own country is still crumbling. Oh well,another convenient distraction i guess.

who said they want the oil to make gas cheaper for the rest of us? they want it so they can continue to tell everyone theres a shortage when in fact, there isnt one and theres never been one. that way when they raise the prices they can say the drop in supply caused the demand to raise or whatever. then they pocket the ridiculous profits, oh and all while paying just about no corporate income tax.

Who here has denied that the US supplied weapons to Iraq?

I deny it. The accusation is unmitigated bullshit.

You should do some more research...

Google is not research.

Idiot.

Your "multiple sources" can all be traced back to the same source: leftwing crank.

By the time the total bill for Iraq has come in, it will be in the range of 3 trillion dollars. And we got another theocratic government for that money and over 4000 American lives.

Gaddafi? We will have spent about 2 billion by the time this is over, and no American lives lost. And we have no responsibility for whatever the Libyans do next for a government.

More leftwing horseshit. You people just make up numbers.

The cost of an action does not determine whether it's ethical. It only costs $0.25 for a bullet. Does that make it ethical for me to put one through your head? It may be a service to humanity, but it's not ethical.

The Iraq war cost less than 1 trillion
Those troops who chose to be there and fight mostly Al Qaeda did not do that so you could use the sacrifice as a stat Old Rocks, Leave it the fuck alone if that is the best you can do with it

We do not know what the end product in Egypt or Libya is. If we are going to go around replacing governments we need to first have congress involved and then next have the people there to make sure it works

One last thing, Qaddafi was killed by foot soldiers, the drone only set the trap, no foot soldiers, Qaddafi is still alive

Obama has a problem with telling the truth.

He gives in to hyperbole calling the "No-fly Zone" over Libya historic.....

WTF???

I guess he forgot about the No-fly Zone over Iraq that led to the ousting of Saddam.

Obama talks a good game but he's full of it. His No-fly Zone was really a bombing campaign that he never admitted ever took place....till yesterday. He would never openly admit that he was killing troops and civilians on the ground the last 6 months. He wouldn't admit that he supplied anti-Qaddafi forces weapons and training......calling the weapons "non-military aid". He invented the phrase "Static Military Action", and decided it was better to lead from behind rather then take the lead. So why does he feel he can take credit for this?

Because that is what he does. He wants to be all things to all people, but he is what he is....a poor leader. He only fights a rigged fight. One that he thinks is manageable. He'll never take on Iran. They aren't a paper-tiger like Qaddafi. He would have never taken on Saddam. Instead he claimed he was merely giving logistical support to the rebels. Fact is, without our help Nato would have collapsed and the rebels would have been slaughtered.

Why doesn't he just admit what he's up to?

Because he's a fake. He loves to kill bad guys as much as anyone, but he wants to pass himself off as a peacemaker. He's anything but that.

Now that Qaddafi is dead get ready for a media campaign to describe just exactly what a rat-bastard he was. Sure he was a bad man, but Obama was butt-buddies with him up to the point he started murdering his own people when they got the bright idea of having their own Arab Spring.

The fight isn't over with. We have to leave Libya to sort their own problems out because if we put anyone on the ground there it will turn into another Iraq.

President Obama's Speech on Libya (March 28, 2011) - YouTube

Mud GWB took 18 months of doing the right thing prior to invading Iraq. The people of this country knew exactly what was being done with there money and why as well as the troops who invaded. My contention that Obama is so far out of the constitution is back up when Clinton bombed Iraq in the late 90s
