/me goes to the us naval base and asks wether he can push one of those little red buttons.
-
When this is over, in a couple of weeks I hope, we will learn that this was the correct course of action.

Finally, the US, UK and Spain are doing the right thing. Not seeking another UN Resolution. Clinton never asked the UN for anything - about the only thing I liked about his foreign policy.

Bush to Address Nation Tonight!
This is it. It\'s time to back the troops and hope that this is over quickly.
Look here! (http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,81233,00.html)

I just hope they put better cameras on the laser-guided bombs this time... I wanna see one fly right in Saddam\'s bathroom window while he\'s laying some wolfbait...
-
:laughing: that is funny chizzy.
Yeah Ace I saw that as well... Unfortunately I will be at hockey and have to wait until 10 pm to see what he says. I think war will start before Friday.
-
There is a lot of info out there about the technology out there for news gathering. This will be a very very well covered war.
-
Been listening to the developments all day to day...
/me throws away peacenick plackard and funny smelling “Cigarette” and picks up a M16 and puts a Cigar into the coner of his mouth.
Ahh well time to debate this old chestnut is over... lets go in there and kick some A$S !

/me gose off to start it .

NO ;)
we need him here to sort out the Health service and public transport.
oh and may I be the first to apologise for my strong and sometimes LEFT WING views on a war…. The apology is especially goes to Ace and GigaShadow
he lets just be thankful that we all live in countries where you can voice your opinion.. hey after all thats the REAL reason why we are fighting this..as well as WoMD ;)....
-
No need to apologize buddy! :) Everyone here is entitled to their views and who is to say you were wrong.
As for Blair, I wish he was American. He is quite the leader. No, I am not saying this because he has supported the US, I really think he is one, if not the best world leader today. Much better than GWB IMHO.

I wish the best for the Iraqi people. I hope and pray there will be no civil war among the many Ethnic groups. I\'m sure many will welcome Democracy as many of the Iraqis are educated and hopefully will choose a more peaceful transition. As for the fundementalists......hoo boy. THat\'s a whole new can of worms.
-
:rolleyes:
Here we go....I only hope this war is swift and low on casulitys..
God help us , if GWB is a two-term President. I don\'t think we could handle another war.
Here\'s a quote from CNN.
President Saddam Hussein appeared prepared for war, warning that if Iraq is attacked the battle will be "wherever there is sky, land and water in the entire world."
Sounds like to me, someone has a little certain plan..eh?
-
He also coined the term "Mother of all" wars back in 1991.
It turned out to be a route.
-
This reminds me of the opening of "Hot Shots Part Deux" where Saddam is in his bed using the dustbuster and catches his penis in it. Anybody see that movie?
-
Yes...
Hilarious movie and I hope the real war is just like that...
:p

A couple of weeks? Please! I believe the entire ground mission (desert storm) in Iraq in 91\' lasted a whooping 100 hours. They are all in trouble.
I have a hunch though. The US Army will always attack the night of a new moon. Although, there is a problem. Tonight there will be a full moon. Thus, we would have to wait almost 20 days until we attack. Hopefully Iraq knows this and we can suprise them tonight.
And why is it that the US, UK, Spain and Portugal are the only countires left with any balls?
-
Thank God Fear Factor is a repeat tonight. Dang president...
MSNBC has had a countdown to the Presidential address for the past couple hours. Um, it\'s over 4 hours away!!!! God I hate news organizations. I\'m so glad I got out.
-
Which episode is Fear Factor, tonight?!? I just started watchin that show, so I wouldn\'t mind catchin\' that.
And it could be worse...CNN had some guy on that just kept repeating the same old stuff...
"Yeah, the President is giving a speech. I think its safe to say we will go to war..."
repeat ten times.
-
Not sure what fear factor is on, but I can guarantee you that they will eat or do something really gross and their will be a chick with big tits.
-
Exactly why I watch the show..
(the girl with big tits...)

I was trying to be kind. I think it will be quick except going into Baghdad to find Saddam.

Here\'s my question...May be a dumb one.
But, what exactly are we goin\' to do with Saddam, once we find him? I mean, there is no clear cut answer on what we plan on doin\' with Osama when and if we get him..Never the less, Sadam.
-
No need to worry. If Saddam is in the sights of any soldier, I am sure there will be a bullet between his eyes before he can say Baghdad.
Ace
-
As I said, it may be a dumb question.
But wouldn\'t that fall under assination? Which is prohibited, right?
I am not the most political person, so I excuse my ignorance.
-
I knew a war was coming within the next couple weeks. This shouldn\'t be a long war. It will end when Hussein is removed from power.
-
oh whell.. I saw Johnny officially commit troops an hour ago.
yup. definatley going to happen now.

If hes unarmed.. I think it is.
I remember Bush speech where he said he would kill Usama.. The spokesperson later had to take back that statement as it is illegal to threaten to kill someone, even Usama.
;)
-
We all knew it was coming, so now what do citizens in America do? Sit around with their thumbs up their asses?
-
But Saddam is a soldier isn\'t he? I mean unless he is waving a white flag giving up why can\'t someone shoot him? It\'s a war. Heck I don\'t know. It would be sweet though.
-
No . . . we support our troops, no matter what side we fall on, and hope it\'s quick with few casualties.
