"Our Planes flew right over African genocides to murder, and occupy Iraq"
Ive never been prouder!! Long live conservatives...
LOL... well it kinda dispels the argument - the one we USED to hear - that we're not in it for the oil, we're in iraq to save lives and bring democracy.
Saddam was an animal, but he didn't do a lot of killing for the last 20 years since the iran war and the gassing of the kurds. He was evil, sure. but there is/was mass slaughter in africa which continues today. We've never uttered a word about ending that. But we sure as hell have the oil pipeline covered!
Most funny is how the arguments here have changed. joelocal, Beach bum, delusional liberal, and others used to scream about how we're in iraq for democracy, and not there to take the oil. Today, their argument is "Well, we are taking the oil, but we're ALSO there to spread democracy." It's akin to robbing your neighbor's house but mopping the floor before you leave... "I was there to mop, your honor" is a little flimsy as you sit in the U-Haul truck containing all their shit.
