Yep. What rotters the Americans and the British were, imposing all those nasty sanctions on that nice Mr. Saddam who decided to spend billions on palaces and other valuables for him and his friends, letting his people die of disease and starvation. How easy it is to blame the sanctions when, in fact, it was the regime that failed to provide adequate food and medical care, even though they had the resources to do so.

of course he was/is - just trying to show how we managed to f**k up the country in many ways and all this 'improvement' is actually just undoing some of the damage WE did too.

Ray Reynolds may well believe in the war and in what he's doing, but that doesn't mean the majority of troops in Iraq feel the same. We're forever seeing troops interviewed stating that they're there to do a job despite not agreeing with the war. My cousin and his colleagues in Iraq at the moment feel exactly that.

You're forgetting that we officially went to Iraq to find non-existant wmd's mattwebb. Not to remove Saddam, not to rebuild the country and not to kill innocent civillians.

It was my dream to play for Palace and to make my debut. I've always played for the club so if I'm playing here, I wouldn't want to be anywhere else.

Saddam was bad

Killing over 100,00 people just to get rid of him was bad too.

Nobody is right.

Put a Glide in your Stride, and Dip in your Hip,

Ever thought that he may stay in power because the people of this country don't have anybody better to vote for?
