no matter what yu say, america has NO right to be in this war. ive heard osama bin laden's speeches, and he makes much more sense than that c*** sucker George W Bush. This is another repeat Vietnam, and before long americans will be sighing with their undeserved freedom, and saying: " What a senseless war." Politicians are stupid, and democracy does NOT work.

Wasn't Kuwait once part of Iraq?

Great video, good to see that the media though entirely under corporate control, still has room to broadcast some dissent.

Bullshit, Saddam didnt attack Iran because they were weak, he atacked becasue he was the nearest US puppet.

Iran was in a weakened position because the US wanted them in that position.

You are right about Saddam being a US puppet.

When the US found the excuse they needed to go after the Iraqi oil, they tossed Saddam to the wolves and moved in to where we are now.

The US also knew of Saddam`s plan to annex Kuwait and took advantage of that to keep their presence in the region via the Saudis.

[PollenB]

They were weak coz the US wanted them weak??

Saddam was goaded into attacking Kuwait. During the Iran/Iraq war the Kuwaitis stole a shit load of oil from an Iraqi oilfield using a technique developed in Texas, where drilling is done sideways. Then the price of oil was slashed when the Kuwaitis put all the oil they stole on the market. This pissed Saddam off bigtime. Thats when he attacked. Exactly what the brits and yanks had planned. They now had their bad-guy!

[gosciu555]

yeah don't forget Kuwait is BP-zastan. There was also the story of the incubator babies which Bush 41 used to goad the public to support the war. It was a complete fake. and wait, its not necceseraly the "US" as such but the ruling elite/establishment that are doing this. many of them have ties to the Brits.

[PollenB]

Yep. The tearful daughter of one of the embassy staff was forced into reading the lies out at the UN.
