Comments on: Fmr. Saddam General, Georges Sada, on WMDs (VIDEO) http://www.msunderestimated.com/2006/01/fmr-saddam-general-georges-sada-on-wmds-video/ Reality Bytes Thu, 09 Feb 2012 16:41:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Texocrat http://www.msunderestimated.com/2006/01/fmr-saddam-general-georges-sada-on-wmds-video/comment-page-1/#comment-46 Texocrat Wed, 22 Mar 2006 20:38:30 +0000 http://www.msunderestimated.com/?p=28#comment-46 I'm not convinced that Sada knows what he's talking about, but at the same time, I never really doubted that Saddam had WMDs when this fiasco started. The fact of the matter is, it's irrelevant. Saddam was no threat to us. If what Sada says is true, just the threat of sending in inspectors was enough for Saddam to ship all his WMDs accross the boarder. The inspections worked! He had no ties with Al Qaida! Maybe he was violating the UN orders. He definitely was an evil tyrant that the Iraqi people, along with the rest of the world, are better off with out. No doubt. But, at the time we invaded Iraq, we had bigger fish to fry. People need to get out of this narrow thinking that says, "Saddam deserved what he got," or that "We had the right to invade because he had weapons he wasn't supposed to have." Maybe that's all true, but that's not the criteria that should be considered. The question should be, "Is invading Iraq, right now, at this moment, the best thing for the US, first, and for the rest of the world, second?" The answer was, is, and will always be, NO. When we waged an unlawful war against Iraq, with out support from the UN, we diverted our attention from the real terrorists, and inflamed hatred for America. This hatred is what drives them. We played directly into the hands of Al Qaida recruiting. They don't live in any single place. They live everywhere. No matter where you fight them, there will be more. Bush is absolutely right when he says everything changed on 9/11. So, why didn't he take a new approach, instead of repeating the exact behavior that created the enemy? The more innocent people are killed or harmed in this process, the more terrorists there will be. We have only begun to see the ill effects of this war. There will be suicide bombers in our streets before long. All because our leaders would rather use our military than our brains. We must be precise in this war. We must be accurate and just. We can not risk being sloppy, greedy, arrogant, or imperialistic. They think we want to take over the middle east. They think it's a Christian war against Islam. You can pretend it doesn't matter what they think, but it does. It matters more than whether or not they have weapons. Weapons are everywhere. If they don't have them, they'll get them. We have to change their minds. It's the only way.

My father also served in Viet Nam, and I know how the war was "lost." It was in the media - not over in theatre. In fact, UBL's #2 Zawahiri has SAID that this would be won like Viet Nam was - in the media! I just had a friend in town this weekend who was in the first Gulf war. He was in Kuwait and said that one of the Iraqi Republican Guard's Generals who was fleeing Iraq to Kuwait, surrendered to him and his troops. Why? Because the tank that was going ahead of his convoy was blown up by one of our guys in a humvee. When they asked the General why they surrendered to them, he said that all of their tanks had been destroyed by the American forces, and that a vehicle with rubber wheels was able to even take HIS tank out! He was shocked! Again, thanks for your service. It's because of people like you that I have the freedoms to have this blog and speak my mind. Ms. U Vet:
