| Saddam did not comply with U.N. inspectors' demands (based on U.N. Resolution), regardless of WMD possession, which gave the bases to conclude that Saddam was hiding WMD.
He (Saddam) gambled, swallowed "the bait" and lost.
What alleged "Bushists" have in common with it ?
Kerry (or whoever in power) would do somthing similar or the same.
Among other issues, U.S. has entered Iraq for variety of reasons, where the oil and gas are one of them.
What should U.S. look for ? Camels ? Scorpios ? Desert sand ?
Yes, U.S. needs to protect steady oil and gas supplies. Why are you so surprized ? U.S. needs more oil and gas for cheap prices.
China does it something similar (with 40% additional demands in that field) and suddenly (almost) nobody cares. China is building up (designating its own means for that purpose !!! - all expenses covered by Chinese government !!!) a direct pipeline from the Caspian Sea. You would be more-than-surprized if somebody touches that pipeline. China will not pay so much attention but send (for example) 200 000 troops to protect its business.
This world is about the energy, in order to survive.
Do you think Chinese will ever bother with you for a "persmission" ? :-)))
Maybe in your dreams. |
