Nope. I'm not a try hugger, pal. I'm talking about killing their leadership, cutting the snakes head off.

You're only insulting your own country if you think you can mobilize 250k people, co-ordinate missles with GPS, cloak an airplane etc, etc, but you can't assisinate a man and his government leaders? .....

It's illegal for any person employed or acting on behalf of the United States government to engage in an assassination attempt.

That is exactly right. And Bush supposedly dropped a bomb on Saddams lap the first night of the war.
The only way you could get away with murdering the leadership of a country is by being at war with them. (!)

Yet you blame us for going to war instead of trying to assassinate him. Are you actually reading any of the stuff you type?

Uhm... ohhhh, I understand! THATS why the US decided it had to go to war... because they couldn't assassinate him! And all this time I thought it was about disarmament and instanting a better form of government.

Pliablemoose, you're gullible.

Phuz, you're ugly and Pliablemoose can always educate himself by watching the spin-free CBC.........

OK, it's official. On this particular subject, you are a complete dolt.

Stop posting and take a nap.

Flip flopping indeed.

i watched him say that live

Judging by the quality of his posts, I had assumed he already was taking a nap and was just typing in his sleep.

 

[Phuz]

So... you also believe that you're country is incapable of assassinating Saddam?
He's gullible because ABC told him it wasn't possible - and he believed them.

So when the facts don't support your argument, you resort to name calling?

You're a historical revisionist & the facts aren't even history yet...

BTW, I grew up in the Dakotas, Moved away from about 10 miles from the Canadian border when I left, I found the Canadians I met to be much more logical & realistic than they're portrayed lately. Really nice, hardworking folks. Met quite a few on my vacations too.

Course I haven't met many folks from Quebec, either, mostly folks from Saskatchewan, Alberta & Manitoba...

Sorry, wasn't meaning to stop you from posting anything.. insightful.. oh wait...

Skoorb, dude, you're amazing... unfortunately, not in a good sense. :|

First of all, I really believe that living in the States has twisted your mind. I moved FROM the States to Canada and I found it to be a breath of fresh air...

Second, I really think you are dreaming... Canadians are very much against this war, for two main reasons. One is that they are better informed (your liberal bubble theory is pitiable, you really don't know what you're saying! jeez!) and second because if you look at statistics, Canada has received more than 5 million immigrants since 1970 alone. That's at least a sixth of the total population. And these people have a totally different agenda than what people in Alberta will think. Including a hatred for all these foreign wars.

Also, please be aware that Ontario alone has almost one third of the total Canadian population, and Quebec is one of the most cosmopolitan places in the country (with all the baggage that comes with it). You know, Montreal is a much better place to live in than Toronto...

Dude, you are dangerously naive if you think that the Canadian foreign (and internal) policy should be the same as in the 50's... Think about the fact that a "too close" alliance between U.S. and Canada is smothering for us, Canadians. Your wife said in another thread that she prefers living in Canada to the U.S., and i suspect that it's only money that keeps you in the States. So despite your pro-Americanism, I think we'll see you back here in a couple of years.

And by the way, don't rely on companies like Ekos.... i know how their opinion polls are made, because i have friends who work there.

Quit playing de ping pong.

The whole assassination thing is your mule not mine. You wanna hop off it now because it's obvious you don't know what you're talking about then fine.

 

[freakflag]

what don't you understand?

Having a "too close" alliance with the U.S. is smothering. I think everyone needs to make a quick jump back to reality here.

This is why I think you're gullible: You assume that by simply assassinating Saddam and his top leaders that the Republican Guard will just capitulate and hand over Iraq to, oh, I dunno, whoever the people choose? As if.........

Could have fooled me...

Wife says I have to quit baiting Canadians, I'll post no more.

 

[Phuz]

^^

No, I was being told it wasn't physically possible. I'm saying it is.
Whether or not its the best idea, doesn't matter. I was being asked if I knew a better solution than going to war. You didn't read the thread.

So now my question still stands unanswered...

Edit: Actually, that made me LOL. Everyone in the office turned around and looked at me. I smiled and said, "ATOT". They all just shook thier heads.

Your "better solution" is ILLEGAL. Next.

So you're saying YES, it is possible.. but wouldn't work because of... reason X. Thats fine. I was just trying to understand why it was deemed IMPOSSIBLE. I'm not saying its the ultimate solution, but going to war is the path that is taken when all other possibilities have failed. I don't think many possibilities were even considered. (inspections, un, etc, aside)

One last post & I swear I'll stop...

My ex wife lives in Britan, and while I'm far from an expert on much of anything, I listen to the BBC daily, along with NPR, & PBS. I don't agree with a lot of it, but I try hard to see all sides of an argument.

I also click on my sig now & then...

.....too bad that fresh air got stale in while trapped in your head! But you just wouldn't be you, Anita, if you weren't either bashing the US or some Canadian who chooses to live here.

Once the US has established peace, Canada will send peacekeepers. End of story.
