*DAMN R6 Forum

I opened this thread so people could just post their feelings about the possible war with Iraq (without a flame war please).

I think it's a shame that you have to use armed forces at all in this conflict, in my opinion it can be solved without going to war.

What do you think would be the best course of action?

war is never a good option, but in this case it seems justified. saddam hussein had a comitment to disarm himself of all WMDs in his arsenal after the gulf war and he has not yet demonstrated that has destroyed anything. ppl always claim that this is in some ways medieval justice, because we are asking him to prove his innocence instead of showing that he is guilty. this is pure bs. he was found guilty in 1991 and  now hes on "probation" or "parole". medeival would have been to chop of his head ofter the 1991 war.
the problem with saddam is that the developed world (esp. USA, USSR, France, UK and Germany) provided him with t-72 tanks, mirage fighter-jets, poison gas, bacteria etc. and in essence created him by providing the arsenal. in my opinion it is up to those same countries to do something to disarm him now that we have seen that he is capable of 'going too far' (gassing of kurds during anfal campaign, use of poison gas against Iran, invasion of kuweit etc.). the us is freinds with many dictators and unelected rulers (i.e general mushareef, al-saud family), who more often than not are bad people, but, unlike saddam hussein, they are good allies and know when not to push the limit.
does anyone remeber what ppl were saying right after 9/11 about the US having started the taliban and osama bin laden? well, if saddam hussein does somthing to harm the US or one of our allies, the reaction will be the same and there will be 1000 little bitches in this forum talking about how the US built up and used to support saddam and thats its all their own damn fault.
bush is a dumbass and a noob, yes, but he (or rather dick cheney and gang) is right about this one. theyve gone about it the wrong way by alienating european allies (..and really pissing off germany and france) and not even pretending to be looking for a diplomatic path. even worse, they're not making any sense by cutting taxes and building up military spending- in the end this will mean less schools, less roads and less public services, because the money will have to come from somewhere. nevertheless, saddam is both a danger and a source of irritation to the US and needs to be removed.

You people better watch the hell out because now that the world is distracted we Canadians are going to disarm Iceland.  There is speculation they have snow forts of mass destruction.  You bastard Scandanavians are going to get the beating of a lifetime....snooch

Iceland doesn't even have an army.

     Who needs one? They've got Scandinavian wenches. Any attacking force will be quickly seduced and rendered harmless. Hey, I think I know how to end war! Export Scandinavian girls to the world! Yay!

Loth, I think that is perhaps the best idea you've had in a long time.

/me puts up a big sign on the front of his apartment reading "THE WORLD"

Send away!

the hottest scandinavian girl i've ever seen is the assistant coach of iceland in the movie D2:The Mighty Ducks. she is smokin'??man, that Gordon Bombay you never know what his pimp ass will do next! mb a series of street show loafers for kids who want to coach!

You actually watched the D2 the mighty ducks....?.....I wouldn't admit that to anyone else if i were u......

We should go to war. We have many reasons the Oil industry, Saddam hiding weapons etc. etc. We should not bomb them because we would blow up our allies (like Turkey). We shouldnt go to war cause if Saddam really is hiding weapons we would be walking into a trap. There are many different opinions.

Nice try mattster.

What the fuck are you smoking Mattster?

As for my opinions on this, you can check out the numerous other thread's on this topic.

my opinion on the war:
fuck it. the last thing we need right now is more death. if we could just take out saddam it'd be fine, but the whole thing is beginning to look pretty messy. Plus, we really can't afford it. We need the UN, as useless as they are.

I say, go to war, it'll ruin your economy and the dollar will fall, it'll be cheaper for me to go there  ;)

LMAO FUNNIEST EVER BWAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

This war is soo political that its not funny, i did an editorial on it for the school newspaper.  I had some great lines from people close to Bush.  Lines like..."When there is a regime change, we can add millions or barrels of oil to our production, this is good for the economy." HAHAHA give me a break, Bush is such an ass. This is clearly a stepping stone...first Iraq, than Iran, than Sudia Arabia..than we own all major oil producing contries...you'll see.

Hey golo, canada better watch out!
I heard Bush put them in the new axis of evil, because real maple syrup gives him the shits. ;)

Iceland has had only 1 armed robbery in its history.

Trivial trivia from Snipe.

One armed robbery? I'm surprised they had any at all ;)

     Imagine how much more effective the guy would have been if he'd had two arms to rob with.

Hahahah Loth, you're quite the "joke-ster"  This war is inevitable, i think everyone should except it.  You don't put 100 000 yankees in a desert with shiny new guns unless u expect them to use them.
