[quote="Pfc.Green":40278]I, during and after the Afghan campaign Dems were complaining about civilian casualties, where were the Republicans whining about civ. casualties during the Bosnian campaign? thats right there were'nt any. The arguement of the who arming of the enemy is getting old, you cant say that giving Saddam some money and some other stuff made him invade Kuwait or gas the Kurds...so on. .[/quote:40278]
You are right. we should not worry civilains, It's there fault for being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Careful your are making Republican sound like heartless warmongers.
I did not say the us giving money to Saddam made him gas anyone or invade kuwait. I said when he gassed the Kurds we looked the other way, we needed him as an ally against Iran. When he invaded Kuwait then he threatend our oil supply, that when he became evil in our governments eyes.
Saddam is an evil man. But this country has a history of supporting people just like him when it thinks it will help the "cause of the day " Look at Pakistan, a country with weapons of mass destuction, that was just last year threating to use them, Oh but wait we need them for our war on terror.
Why aren't we building forces up to invade North Korea, they are a bigger threat the Saddam. Why aren't we in Africa stablizing the region so that democracy can have a chance. Why are we giving Prefered Trade status to China, with it's dismall record on human rights. What about Russia and the use of chemicals on their citizens.
