Unlike you, we have respect for human life.

I just want to shake you and tell you: "THIS IS NOT A JOKE! PEOPLE WILL DIE!"

'Do not destroy oil wells, a source of wealth belonging to the Iraqi people'

Does anybody actually believe this bullshit?

Alright...come back to me after the war is over and Bush has control of all Iraq's oil.

Corey · Post by **Corey** » 3/17/2003, 7:27 pm

That's not going to happen. The money made off of oil in Iraq is supposed to go towards helping the people of Iraq. That's not what Hussein chose to do with it though in direct violation of UN sanctions.

Who needs the UN when you have the US

Corey · Post by **Corey** » 3/17/2003, 7:31 pm

Well the UN chose not to follow resolutions set in place so what is the point of the US obeying th UN?

Hell, why have a bunch of nations decide what to do in the world when one nation alone can do it.

Corey · Post by **Corey** » 3/17/2003, 7:32 pm

Maybe we should have you decide.

you mean theres other countries in this "world" thing you speak about?!

But that original resolution was created by the US and I think the UN deserves to have the right to go against it if it does not feel that war is necessary at this moment. How can a resolution last for 12 years and still be enforced without giving the UN a opportunity to assess the current situation.

Corey · Post by **Corey** » 3/17/2003, 7:36 pm

It doesn't matter what they feel. They have an obligation to act according to the resolution.

What would a law mean if it wasn't held up in court?

Are people going to take it seriously?

If any one nation can decide that another needs to be attacked, then why can't Iraq decide that the U.S. needs to be attacked.

Corey · Post by **Corey** » 3/17/2003, 7:37 pm

Fine, then they will attack. The US will then defend itself.

This is on a much bigger scale and I knew that this flaw in my reasoning would be pointed out. They shouldnt follow this resolution just because the US tells them too. We are talking countries not individuals. America stands for equality of the individual but I guess equality of countries is not necessary.

Isn't that what Iraq is doing?

Explain to me how the US is different than Iraq?

if Iraq attacked all hell would break loose b/c they are not in the UN. These other countries are afraid to stand up to America and say listen the UN was formed to prevent one country, more specifically dictator, from controlling other countries based on his reasoning. This resolution is the only thing that is saving the US right now and it is the only thing Bush could say regarding the other countries not agreeing with us.
