Kirkland we ARE the nice and innocent party, we are willing to pay them a SUBSTANTIAL amount of money for their product and they are living in the fucking stone age. OUR culture is the better culture and I say that knowing full well we do have our faults and they are big, but we are the culture of freedom and liberty. Also THANK YOU ENGLAND for being the first to stir the pot with these jackasses.
Saddam didn't break the terms of the treaty, America did. The US is bound by law to respect international law but didn't and invaded Iraq against the wishes of the world community and against the law. Which of course makes the US a rogue nation. Saddam was in no position to invade any other country. None of his neighbours wanted the US to invade Iraq apart from Iran who were delighted when the US did because it meant that the US would inevitably have to hand over control of Iraq to them. Iran achieved something they'd wanted for thirteen centuries but were unable to achieve without having to fire a shot when the idiot Bush invaded Iraq.

The US has never paid anything near fair price for Arab oil for decades. It only began to happen in the seventies when the Arabs started to regain a little control over their oilfields. Before you make ridiculous comments like that you should check whether it's true or not and as always you'll find that you're wrong. This is a long article and contains no pictures but is full of facts and evidence and shows how US oil companies robbed the Arabs of untold billions for half a century and is just a small part of the whole story :

OPEC and Crude Oil

Since the seventies there's been an ongoing US attempt to reestablish control over Arab oil, the Iraq invasion being one part of that.

For 300 million Arabs living under dictators that the US have intalled/propped up over the decades the US is the country of repression, misery, death and destruction. They'd love freedom and democracy in their own countries but their countries' regimes are propped up and maintained by the US so because of America any movement towards freedom is impossible. You may be the biggest pro-British person on the planet but if we come over to North Carolina and put our boot on your neck for forty or fifty years eventually you won't think of British people in quite the same way.
