I has been brought to my attention by someone who I have a great amount of respect for that I was rude and insensitive to you regarding my post to you on Hitler. Upon re-reading that post, I would agree. You have my apologies for that. Please don't misinterpret this as being in agreement with you on ANY other post or issue that you have submitted. I find many of your posts as equally insulting and arrogant. But right is right. Sorry. Now, where were we? Oh yeah, I'm right...you're wrong! Let's just take it from there, lol.

Any chance at all that some of the decisions being made by your government might be based on faulty intelligence reports? It seems with what’s been reported in the press so far in North America and England, that the weapons of mass destruction charges have been pumped up in order to make going into Iraq more palatable. Not that I disagree with the US going into Iraq. No matter how you cut it, Saddam was an evil SOB who deserved to go. I just think that at the very least, Senior officials might have been misled by the faulty data they were receiving.

ScottishCLK Sep 15, 2003 04:12 PM

Maybe, maybe not. Who cares? Not me. I believe we did what needed to be done. By the way, why would you ask a question of someone you regard as an "inbred, redneck, fanatical wingnut, as you so politely stated on July 25th. Am I wrong in thinking that you have zero respect for any opinion I have to offer based on that comment? Perhaps you are an instigator like the other two stooges. Or perhaps you're sincere. If you are sincere, please accept my apologies. If not...time will tell.

kanuck Sep 16, 2003 08:01 AM

As far as I can tell you weren't involved in the debate on the 25th, unless of course you're one of those multiple user names people. As for whether or not the WMD claim is accurate, I think that's very important as it was the justification for invading Iraq in the first place. If we were misled about that claim, why not other things as well.

ScottishCLK Sep 16, 2003 06:58 PM

Who is this "we" you refer to? Do you live in the U.S.? What do you gain or lose either way? How exactly does the fact that YOU may or may not have been misled affect YOU personally? Do you think the U.S. was misled by Saddam as Judy stated below? Are you even reading any of the posts below? How do you know that "we" were misled. The fact that we haven't found them (WMD) yet does not mean that they don't or didn't exist. In any case, you condoned our actions toward Iraq. On July 25th you stated, and I quote, "As far as invading Iraq goes, I applaud the move. Saddam was a tyrant who deserved to be overthrown". Very strong words for someone who has a problem with such a pesky little detail which has not yet been disproven, don't ya' think? Or perhaps I'm wrong and you and Herpesconsoltants have proof that WMD in fact never existed. Care to share that evidence? The simple fact of the matter is that unless you live in this country, then "YOU" are not part of the "WE" that need to be concerned about whether or not Georgy boy lied to us. The people here will decide if he should stay in office or not by doing a little thing we like to refer to as "voting". Do you vote in the U.S.? I'll be voting for Georgy boy myself, in case you were interested.

kanuck Sep 17, 2003 09:01 AM

So you’re attacking me using semantics now. My apologies for accidentily using “we” in the wrong context. As for the claim that I’m anti American, that’s getting old. I think, at least the last time I checked, that you can question a governments actions without being against that country. I don’t agree with everything the Israeli government does, but I’m not anti-Israeli. All those kind of attacks show, is how weak your arguments are. As I’ve stated numerous times, I think the war was a good thing no matter how it came about. But I would like to know if the information that was offered to the world, not just the US people, since they were trying to persuade all of us to join them in this war, was factual. Aren’t you the least bit curious whether the information was distorted or manufactured in any way.
An awful lot of people, including a fair number in your government are questioning the facts as they were presented.
And by the way, are you poosphere and a host of other user ID’s. Why do you keep changing your name????

ScottishCLK Sep 17, 2003 04:14 PM

No Kanuk, I'm not curious. I could care less and this argument has grown old and futile. I understand you not wanting to answer the questions I posed. In any case, yes, I was Poosphere and at one time Terdball. I was trying to keep the theme going. Get it? Terd=Poo, ball= sphere. I might have kept it going, but fecalorb just didn't sound humorous enough. Anyway, there have been times when I was booted and other times when I forgot or lost my password. In any case, don't confuse my abrasiveness with dislike. While I don't agree with you on certain things, I do like your sarcastic and witty attitude. Kinda reminds me of someone. I can't think of who at the moment, but it'll come to me. Make sure you print this out and frame it cause I'll never admit that again. At least I didn't call you Kanucklehead again, lol. Oops...sorry.

Snakefeller Sep 18, 2003 10:32 PM

third socialist stooge! You're that great catch that married the American, yet you have a problem with Americans who are proud of their country. I hope your wife isn't proud of America, that might piss you off!. You are the great guy that agreed with the invasion of Iraq, yet trashed the Americans on this forum who defended the actions of our government when Iraq was invaded. Boy aren't you just a walking contradiction, and a jackass! I see the other two stooges (Stroeckl & Herpes) are also making fools of themselves. Dumb, Dumber & Dumbest! Keep the entertainment coming!

Always a pleasure to talk to someone with the intellectual capacity of dead flounder(thats a fish in case you didn't know. My wife is quite happy with me as I'm sure your husband is happy with you. Glad we could have this

Glad we could have this little chat. If you have anything to add that might actually be considered coherent thought let us know

Here's a coherent thought: You suck.

kanuck Sep 19, 2003 01:52 PM

WOW!!!!!!! What a brilliant reply. I can see why debating societies are lining up trying to get you to join them. That's almost on the same level as "Me Tarzan you Jane" or in your case "Me snake Feller you, blow up doll".

Snakefeller Sep 19, 2003 02:41 PM

Even a blow up doll could out wit the the combination of air and wood that sits between your ears. You think that you are more clever that the the two other stooges, because you claim that you agree with the result while you disagree with everything else. You try to mask your contempt for Americans just like your cowardly friends. I guess that if you had the guts to be honest and state that contempt, your wife wouldn't be too happy with ya. I might have a shred of respect for you if you did the US a favor and disagreed COMPLETELY with everything we do, including eliminating Saddam. At least I could give you some points for consistency. But don't think that you have any credibility here because you claim to agree with Saddam's removal. You anti-American agenda is plain to see. You bash our every move just like your Euro-trash buddies. Why can't any of the three stooges admit their hatred of the US. You certainly won't offend us for stating something that we already know. Now go play in your fishing hole.

P.S.
You're saying that there are weapons of mass destruction in Iraq without any proof is the same as claiming that the tooth fairy exists. No ones ever seen her but she must be real. Why, because my Mom said so.

ScottishCLK Sep 17, 2003 04:28 PM

A ridiculous and irrelevant analogy. Childish too. You're smarter than that.

Snakefeller Sep 19, 2003 01:53 PM

"You're saying that there are weapons of mass destruction in Iraq without any proof is the same as claiming that the tooth fairy exists. No ones ever seen her but she must be real. Why, because my Mom said so."

Ok you little juvenile delinquent, the victims of 9/11 never saw those planes before they smashed into their buildings, killing them. Just because they didn't "SEE" them, does that mean the planes never existed? What would "Mom" say to that?

Do you think the victims of "Chemical Ali" needed to "SEE" the weapons in order to know that they were going to die?

Grow up moron!

AS FOR THE YET UNFOUND WMD BEING OUR EXCUSE FOR ENTERING INTO THE WAR WITH IRAQ, I AGREE.......IT WAS PROBABLY A PHONY EXCUSE. MAYBE THE REAL REASON WAS A PHOTO..SEVERAL PHOTOS...AND A VIDEO.
ANYONE SEE IT? PEOPLE IN RAGS (THAT'S ALL THEY HAD TO WEAR UNDER SADDAM'S REGIME) HUGGING THE WALLS OF THE HOUSES AND BUILDINGS. PEOPLE LYING IN THE STREETS DRAPED PROTECTIVELY OVER THE BODIES OF THEIR CHILDREN AND BABIES. NO PEACEFUL OR SMILING FACES HERE GUYS. ONLY A LOOK OF HORROR AND BETRAYAL AND HOPELESSNESS THAT THIS WAS THE END TO AN ALREADY HELLISH EXSISTANCE. YEP, PARENTS, BABIES, TODDLERS, KIDS, GRANDPARENTS WITH DROOL AND VOMIT SURROUNDING THEIR HEADS. FLIES LANDING ON THEIR CADAVER-LIKE GRIMACING FACES TO FEAST ON THAT FROTHY STUFF SITTING ON THE LIPS OF THESE INNOCENT PEOPLE WHO, BY THE THOUSANDS, HAD JUST BEEN GASSED BY THEIR FEARLESS LEADER. ALL HERE WHO AGREE "THE HECK WITH WMD....LET'S GET HIM AND HIS SONS AND CRONIES"...PLEASE HOLLAR "AYE"

ScottishCLK Sep 17, 2003 05:01 AM

Aye!

ScottishCLK Sep 17, 2003 05:09 AM

For the record, Kanuk really could care less why we went over there. He or she has the same agenda as Herpco. Just another "non-wantin' to admit he's an Anti-American". Any excuse to row against the waves will do.

herpconsultants2 Sep 18, 2003 12:08 AM

Jesus, look, I am not anti-frigging American. I disagree with the fact that 3,000 plus innocent Iraqi's have died because of the US and UK forces, and that hundreds more of our own soldiers continue to die. I do not disagree with the ousting of Saddam. I disagree with the techniques used, and the bullsh*t fed to the voters in order to win their approval. Lies are never good for a government, whatever the reason. If you trust this sort of regime then that's fine. They have their own interests, more than yours, in mind. If you fail to see this well what can I say.

There have been 6,000 plus killed in Iraq in the last decade. Half caused by Saddam, half caused by our forces. I just think it is total hipocrasy to think that one is better than the other! You don't, and that's fine. You have the right to have an opinion.

ScottishCLK Sep 18, 2003 12:18 AM

Are too! And my name's not Jesus.

Snakefeller Sep 19, 2003 12:27 PM

I suppose that you also hold contempt for the surgeon who cuts open the cancer victim to remove a malignent tumor? The pain that the victim felt from the cancer (before the surgery) is only compounded by the pain caused by the surgeon. How dare he cut that patient open in order to save his life!

You are a sorry excuse for a PHD!

Snake Feller

PS Your hatred of America (for destroying the world) will forever remain intact as long as you keep those blinders on. You are a jackass!

Snakefeller Sep 19, 2003 02:21 PM

Sooooooooooooooooooo Whhhhhhaaaaaaaaaaatttttttttttttt!
Get over it loser! Even IF they were being misled, if you agree with the end result, what difference does it make. You must come from the land of Make Believe if you think that your stainless-steel puritan politicians in sweet-pants, pot-smoking Canada have never misled anyone. Again Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Whhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaatttttttttttttttttttt!!!!!!! What's it too you anyway, unless your agenda is to bash America?

I love the fact that Bush took Saddam out. If he lied to anyone in order to get the job done, then GOOD FOR GEORGIE!! I Love it. Ha Ha Big Boy! We're better than you! Ha Ha!

ScottishCLK Sep 19, 2003 02:35 PM

LMAO! Bravo.

kanuck Sep 15, 2003 03:20 PM

This is from CNN's website. It's in regards to Iraq having had weapons of mass destruction.

Former National Security Adviser Zbigniew Brzezinski said Sunday on CNN's "Late Edition," "It's clear that they weren't armed with these weapons. They didn't use them. We defeated their army in the field. We have control over their arsenals. We haven't found them."

Brzezinski had been a hawk on the war but now dismisses the notion the Iraqis hid the weapons -- calling that comical.

"If they had them, and they were armed to the teeth with them, why didn't they use them?" Brzezinski went on to say. "If they didn't use them and hid them, that means they were deterred. And how do you hide all of these hundreds and hundreds of weapons with which they're armed?"

ScottishCLK Sep 15, 2003 04:04 PM

Easy, just keep moving them. Perhaps to another country even. Also there are probably many reasons why they could not use them. For one, they would have been affected by them as well. After all, we were fighting on the same turf. They also may have compromised certain "escape routes" (tunnels, bunkers, etc.) by using WMD. I could be wrong, but I could be right.

ScottishCLK Sep 15, 2003 07:27 PM

I'm not so sure I'd put too much stock in what Boozerinski says.

H+E Stoeckl Sep 15, 2003 04:48 PM

The tone in discussions here in Europe is often much more harsher than in the U.S.

Due to the different mentality our language and the way we utter an issue is often sensed as rude by people in the U.S.
What I want to say is that it is very kind of you to apologize and it shows your well upbringing, but I was not offended by your lines so far and I think someone who can dish out must also be able to swallow.

I also get sometimes carried away in such heated discussions and sometimes I should have thought better of it before hitting the enter - button.

So I understand you perfectly.

But now I must finish before I fall in love with you and lose the ability to bash you with my valid arguments *LOL
