Defoe Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 Someone once said that war was a situation where one countries idiots fought another countries idiots for the benefit of the ruling classes. I would however totally disagree that the war in Iraq is anything to do with racism. Saddam did invade Kuwait once upon a time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harleyman Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 He's obviously not the sharpest tool in the tool shed. What did he expect to be doing when he signed up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waldo Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 Seems very astute to me, and it's good that people are becoming more aware of these kind of dynamics. As the masses become more and more aware of the ways in which they're being manipulated for the benefit of the few; perhaps things will start to change for the better (for humanity).

Invading a country and dragging the rest of us with them leading to the deaths of hundreds of thousands using such words as shock and awe all because they don't like the idea of walking. Yes, that is dramatic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
