Peace lovers my ***! Where is this peace that you are talking about? What little peace there is in the world has been partly paid for with american blood. And if you think that there is peace in the middle east, then you are a fool.

Last night Saddam said that he would die before he gave up power, so be it! This guy is evil. He is right up there with Hitler, Stalin and Mao. Who amoung you is willing to vouch for him? Who is willing to say that he should be left in power? I'm not. There is a large comunity of exiled Iraqi [sp] people here, and while they disagree on a lot of things, the one thing that they agree on is this; no one in Iraq can even speek against Saddam and avoid jail or death. He is not the chosen leader of Iraq, his people fear him. His own kin fear him.

It should also be noted that America does not use much oil from Iraq. Of late there has been a lot comming in because of disruptions in our regular supplies, but we can do without it. Perhaps we should just take out the oil fields and let Saddam live off of Iraq's remaining exports.
