Joe - Excellent post.

This anti-Americanism crap has me very disturbed.

We help third world countries with valuable food and economic aid, thousands of America lives have been sacrificed to save others on foreign soil (WWI, WWII ring a bell to anyone?), we've promoted freedom to all people, we've tried to do much, much good in this world and now we're critized for being the world's bully. Hell, even the Kuwaiti's have so quickly forgotten who came to their aid when Saddam came knocking. Amazing.

No one has any balls anymore to stand up to people - except America. Here's an idea, /in my most sarcastic tone/ let's give the inspectors 50 more years to do their "inspections". Inspections that aren't going to accomplish diddly. Iraq won't allow spy planes to aid in the inspecitions, they won't allow scientists to be interviewed in private or in a neutral locale w/their families, they delay just about every inspection and have lookouts to radio ahead so that Iraq can move and hide weapons of mass destruction. The time for politics and peaceful resolution have passed - at the fatal choice of Iraq.

I'll tell you this, if America invades and that POS uses even one biological or nerve agent, there better not be one UN member that opposes the war because the proof will be in the pudding. And, the pain that Iraq inflicts on our soldiers will be felt ten-fold upon them.

The full force and might of the United States military will prevail.

God Bless the United States of America.
