1. Congratulations. You "proved" that Rumsfeld shook hands with Saddam. However, the article clearly states that Saddam did not get any CW from us. Our policy was to ensure Iran didn't win the war with Iraq. Sometimes you have to choose the lesser of two evils.
2. Of course it`s relevant. Go back and read my original 5 points in order.
3. Gulf War I was NOT over. That`s a fact. Here`s another one: The Korean War isn`t over, either!
4. That makes no sense. The pressure was to get him to follow the rules, not to cause him to break them more.
5. This is so nonsensical, it`s not even wrong! You asked, "If (the war) was "legal" where was the rest of the U.N?" I explained, "They were all taking bribes..." Then you said, "Exactly. Point proven!" I guess all that`s left for me is to say, "Thank you."
1) America! Proof. Oh mty..isnt that Donald Rumsfeld?
2) Irrelevant. That was the gulf War not the Iraq war!
3) What facts? the Gulf War was over. Stop twisting!
4) Wait what? We know he broke the rules! Saddam was an a$$hole but the amount or pressure forced on Iraq prior to the invasion is still in question!
5) Exactly. Point proven!
Gomay. Give a man a gun and dont be suprised when he turns it on you...nuff said!
I really couldnt careless if anyone agree's or not. I do not support and will not support the invasion of another country outside of them attacking us. Debate over! We can agree to disagree!

MD, I wasn't equating Iraq and WWII; I was proving that you have no fundamental underlying principals on which to base your crackpot opinions.
Now to your lame "answers."
1. We did not give Saddam any WMD. That`s nothing more than baseless slander without a shred of proof. If you have any proof, post the link. (Other crazed lefties repeating the same slander don`t count.)
2. A UN coalition of 34 nations, including 13 Islamic nations, threw Saddam out of Kuwait.
3. See, I told you you couldn`t handle facts.
4. He broke the rules because we insisted that he follow the rules. One word: FAIL!
5. They were all taking bribes in what proved to be the biggest corruption scandal in the history of the world, Oil for Food.
And the argument isn`t over just because you say it is, unless, of course, you`re willing to admit that you`re wrong.
