Default Re: [OT] Another heated discussion about the Iraq siutation, war and politics.

I think many people (not their leaders...) are concerned because they just don't see how attacking the Iraq will bring peace to the middle east in the long run.
The second thing that people concern is the attitude of the US government: they are right and the rest of the world is wrong. And because the US government "knows" that it is right it will ignore the opinion of the rest of the world no matter what and even fabricate evidence to support it’s cause. Can't you see why people are so very concerned about this? No matter how small an evidence they fabricated, they have lost the morale high ground of being "right" and the rest of the world "wrong" about a war. They start to look like a bully making up things so they can hit their target.
If any government begins to fabricate evidence and dismiss the law to do what it thinks is "right", where will it stop?
