@Richy240:
Sounds like an interesting article re. why the Iraqis hate the US!
And you do have to wonder about the impartiality of the government that the US will leave behind - will it be one chosen by the iraqi people? or will it just be a 'puppet' government doing everything the US says? Maybe this is so the US can get a toehold into OPEC, who have a tendency to put oil prices up and disrupt the natural supply and demand and keep prices at an artificial level. This has implications in the uk, where a litre of petrol costs nigh on 80p, which I think is something like $1.20-$1.30, but I digress. If all this is just so the US can get itself into OPEC, it's rather an extreme step to take! Although I do think that all this is to do with more than just simply oil....

Actually, the article I sited makes mention of that also: The newly formed government in Iraq is made up of APPOINTED leaders. These leaders are appointed by the US Government... Surely there isn't a conflict of interest there, eh?
Of course, you'll never hear any of this shit I am saying on/in major news sources. CNN, MSNBC, etc. all have political agendas. (That is why The Nation and other like-minded, privately-owned publications are good to have around.) They filter/alter information as they see fit to mold the minds of the American public (I never saw so many people ready to overthrow a government and kill a national identity; as I stated before, Americans are blood-thirsty) and to please the politicians who give them tax breaks and other related benefits. It is all about money and power. (At this day in age, what isn't? Sad, isn't it?)
Oh well... Until there are more people who can bring themselves think, rather than have their government/television do it for them, this will continue. And until George W. Bush and the like are either elected or impeached from office, we'll have a bunch of evil bastards ruling the US and f**king shit up in other countries around the world.
"KILL FOR OIL! KILL FOR OIL! REELECT GEORGE W. BUSH AND KILL FOR OIL!"

I think it is also very important to mention that the information that the large news networks obtain from the US government is already very altered. Americans are only as informed as the American politicians allow them to be, which makes every argument of mine only somewhat valid.
Of course, I have the capacity to think for myself. Unlike many Americans (or people in general), I have MY OWN opinion. I do not let CNN/MSNBC/CNBC/FOX NEWS tell me what to think.

I dont know why i bother to reply but this will be my last,unless you call me an evil bastard again
These appointed leaders wont be there forever! If you had bothered to watch Bush's speech last night you would have heard him say that there would be an entire Iraqi goverment by the end of 2005.
These things take time,and in time the UN will be in Iraq,thats where the majority of Americans will be leaving it for us Europeans to deal with,security issues,etc.
America's next mission will be North Korea,the country that does'nt allow 99% of the population to own a mobile phone
(i saw a documentary about it on the BBC).

You're right, I didn't watch the press conference, but I did see some clips on the news this morning. I wanted to punch that bastard in the face. He always has a shitty grin on his face, as if he is mocking the American public. I truely dislike that man.
Did Pres. Bush mention that the US government is building 12 military bases throughout Iraq that will endure the next 10 to 20 years? Are those going to be given to the Iraqi people at the end of 2005? I think not. I think the American military will keep a presence there for years to come.
Don't even get me started on Korea. Isn't it strange that Bush went after Iraq first, on SUSPICION of possession of nuclear and biological weapons when Korea ADMITTED that they were engaged in weapons testing and ACTUALLY TESTED one of these weapons off the coast of Japan? Don't you find it odd that Bush went after an oil-rich state before he went after a poorer state which has no large oil reserves, therefore nothing to benefit the US? Don't you find it strange that Bush is an oil man? His business is oil, as is his father's! Isn't this strange to you, or do you choose to ignore the obvious cooincidence (
You're as bad as any and every ignorant American preaching about nuclear weapons in Iraq... Let me tell you something: THEY WERE NEVER FOUND. NEVER! THERE ARE NO NUCLEAR OR BIOLOGICAL WEAPONS IN IRAQ (unless the US brought them). YOU WERE LIED TO!!! Can't you accept the fact that our leaders lie to get their way? Can't you understand that Bush is stealing the resources and lives of the American people for his own benefit?
I can't believe you are so blind. Really.

Apparently someone agrees with me. Here's a picture of a Stop sign I saw earlier today:

Things are getting out of control there. Chaos is worse than war on some way.
