Idicting Bush for War crimes....

hmmm, lets see, yes, i find it terribkly ironic that us hippies always talk about peace and love and yet refuse to kill eachother for that peace and love....ohhh the irony <-- note the sarcasm, tool.

yes saddam killed people, but lets look at the trade embargo the states has had on iraq for many years now, and forced others to put on iraq. the same trade embargo that has been there since the gulf war, and killed millions of iraqi children each year. the trade embargo that wouldnt allow the poper tools to be imported to supply clean water for a once rich and now ailing people. clean fucking water.

whoop dee do da day. tony blair and the u.s. congress said sadam was bad...i geuss thats why they don't let the prosecution select the jury ya douche.

 

The trade embargo was the the whole UN, the UN adopted numberous resolutions against Saddam, to bad they diddn't have the backbone to back them up. And serriously, if they let the prosecution pick the jury for Saddam, they'd pick all Saddam supporters, it'd be like putting Hitler on trial with a bunch of ex-nazis on the jury.

 

*taps your forhead, hearing a great resonance and acoustics within*
that made less sense than taco socks, and tacos don't have socks (if you didnt notice)

if anyone were to pick saddam supporters...it would be the defense...saddam isnt putting bush on trial here, saddam is the defense. which is why they don't let the defense pick the entire jury either.
you seemed to have confused my analogy with taco socks. thats okay, it happens all the time.

and sure, it was a un resolution...instigated and pushed by....? if you were geussing france, i'll give you another try, and here's a hint, it wasnt germany either. no no, it was pushed by the states...why? why to protect the iraqi people! yes thats it, to protect them from themselves
oh wait, now that i think about it, no thats not why. it was so america could reinvade iraq when they really needed the oil so they wouldnt have to worry about anysort of technological or military improvements over the course of 20 years. isntead everything was left to delapidate, and corrode...and who cares how many civilians die in the process of securing american interests (which admittidly are directly tied to canadian interests, or rather vice versa)
i'll tell you who cares...the states care. because the more people the states indirectly kills while sadam is in power, the less impactfull the deaths of the 100,000 people will be when the states invade, and can't place the blame on the incumbent dictator.

 

Mysteriously, the trade embargo which covered the whole country didn't cause an increase in infant mortality in Kurdish areas - i.e. only those areas controlled by Saddam (and based on data from Saddam).

So the only variable here was Saddam. Isn't it sad that we can't blame the UN (or the US) for these deaths?

Also can someone please explain in what sense America's access to oil has changed since the invasion of Iraq? Little known fact: before the invasion, Iraq exported its oil and we bought it. After the invasion, Iraq exports its oil and we buy it.
