Question:
There are so far several solutions for the current crisis in Iraq over inspections. Iraq has biological weapons it has not accounted for, and routinely has not complied with Inspectors even with the threat of serious consquences. What should be done now?

Choices:
War. We gave them an ultimatium and they didn't disarm! They also support terrorists in Isreal and Palestine, hence they are a target in the war on terror.
Inspections, but with Military assitence from the United States. Since many in the world don't want war and we don't want casualties, why not just send in tanks along with Mr. Blix? That calms both sides pretty well.
Inspections, as they are now. Even though Saddam isn

 

once again, i see the anti-war people on this thread have no idea what they are talking about..

Just because 1/3 of the world is afraid to step up to the plate and do something about Iraq is no reason to leave it all to the responsibility of the US to tear down Saddam and then have to rebuild Iraq too.

we did NOT choose the most expensive solution and the most hamrful way in the first place.you did it you are so powerful why don't you end it up?but anyways,we are not leaving it alone,the UN is now both being teased and disrespected yet helping.lame.

And whoever gave to Saddam and his group while the world had sanctions against the country of Iraq - to try to loosen Saddam's grip on the country - only helped to continue the reign of Saddam.

hey many countries did.uncluding the US unfortunally.it's said that after the iran and iraq war,Iraq's militant power raised up to No.4 in this world,guess who helped saddam...

CathayKid,

What?

Chickenbutt!

Iraq is arch enemies of Isreal, they do not support any terrorists in Isreal, and I'm not sure, but I can't recall any terrorist groups from Isreal. Palestine does have terrorist organizations who are mostly anti-Isreal, some have claimed to have been helped by Iraq.

So.. what? Hypocritical? I can't decipher your wording.

I don't wanna see Iraq be bombed but since it's going on,I want to see someone rebuild Iraq.The ones who said they would.
China didn't take part in bombing those countries,as a developing country,we still made contributions to Burma,Cambodia,Africa(actually my friend's father is still working there), India,North Korea,Ukraine,Afghan,Iraq,and other countries in Mid-east and Asia.Haven't you notice the UN in Iraq is working with the people all over the world?yeah including China.We sent doctors,teachers,and materials,not soldiers.
Rebuilding Iraq is this world's duty,we don't solve it without force then we should make it better after the war.If you are pro-war you should be giving them what they deserve.

Where I live is called "the hometown of overseas Chinese"(I don't like this name but whatsoever...),most of us have relatives overseas,I still feel ignorant though,this world is still too huge for me.My cousin is in Austria,beside Germany.My dad is doing business with a company in France.Still I've never been out of China,I asked but nobody took me out.Though I sometimes go to HongKong for a holiday.My parents went to several countries nearby,well usually I'd rather go to Xiamen and visit my sister,that's a nice city towards Taiwan.

In my text-book it mentioned time to time that the US government supported many countries especially during WW2,that was helping,they thanked you,they've been with you all along.However,what has it got to do with the war on Iraq?

CathayKid,

There is an expression in the U.S. :

"Where there is a will . . . there is a way."

You want to see Iraq rebuilt? Have your country send money after Saddam is gone.

Have you ever been to Germany? Most roads and highways built with U.S. dollars.

Have you ever had the opportunity to visit outside China? If your family goes on a vacation or even a short holiday, where are you likely to go? Do you just take a drive to some rural, country part of China, or do you go elsewhere?

Unfortunate, isn't it, that France, Germany, and Russia could not step up to the plate and commit to some responsibility in helping Iraq. They are sitting on their butts and they are sitting on their wallets.

All the while they were debating at the UN they were hiding behind the power and force of the US military positions being held near Iraq.

When Saddam is out, tourism to Iraq will be up.

They were more than willing to do so. Bush on the other hand is being a vindictive sob because he has friends in high places in the oil business who are telling him to push hard to get a war started in Iraq.

---

They are NOT willing to do so. Have you paid no attention to the months of inspections that were getting no where? Are you blind to the Iraqi government trying to trick the people of the world? Did you miss when we found again and again material breaches of the UN resolution demanding Iraq to disarm?

And Oil. I will bet you $10 that this war is not driven by oil. Once we overthrow saddam the oil will still be property of Iraq and it will remain that way. Iraq will use it to help rebuild after the war and we will teach them how.
This war is not bad and I see a bright future ahead for this world.

HE can have weapons of mass destruction, and use them any time he wishes, and their he is, beating up Suddam Hussien, about his weapons. Does anyone agree with me

I certainly dont agree with you. Bush doesnt have the authority to launch a nuke by himself and even if he did he wouldnt use one. The US is not going to nuke anyone.

Disarm them peaceably. They were more than willing to do so. Bush on the other hand is being a vindictive sob because he has friends in high places in the oil business who are telling him to push hard to get a war started in Iraq. He is a sneaky so and so just like most politicians, including his dad.

well it's become a problem that Bush has pushed many people to Saddam's side...

Okay... don't worry, this isn't mean...

George bush is so hippocritacil. HE can have weapons of mass destruction, and use them any time he wishes, and their he is, beating up Suddam Hussien, about his weapons. Does anyone agree with me?

Oh, i bet you think im on suddams side... no i'm on the side of the people who don't want war..

I think we should mind our own business, this whole situation goes both ways, now it's time to drop it before something goes wrong.

I am enraged and disgusted by the people who feel that this mass murderer should be given more time. He has had 12 yrs and 17 UN(albeit worthless) to disarm. As far as I am concerned, this war is a mere continuation of the last one. According to the cease fire agreement signed at the end of the Gulf War, Saddam was to disarm himself of all WMD. He daeclared them then and has not shown proof of his disarmament now. This is a breech of that cease fire and resolution 1441. The argument that the UN is a usefull IGO is quickly being proven wrong. The UN is a disgrace to the sanctity of sovreign states and an insult to freedom. The US must do what it needs to reinforce the security of itself and its friends in the international community. The UN had no problem when the US went into Kosovo, Bosnia, Somalia, Korea, and Yugoslovia. As far as I'm concerned, Saddam is more of a threat and mor of a butcher than Milosovic EVER was. Why is he being charged for war crimes and Saddam is being defended by cowards like France and Russia. The UN has now been proven to be Irrelevant in the world.

We should pull out of the UN
