I don't really want to get into this debate, because Matt and some others are handling it well for my side. All I'll add is something interesting a caller into Rush said today...he wondered if there was yet another motive to occupying Iraq...and it was possibly to open the western front against Iran. It's kind of interesting, because it appears the entire "Axis of Evil" will have to be dealt with eventually. Don't get me wrong, I don't think it's the purpose for occupying Iraq, just an added bonus.
On the French note: I've always stuck up in some way for the French because they were there for us in the Revolutionary War, but I've lost all respect or regard for them now. I've listened to a couple of their diplomats talk, and they sound like defenders of Saddam. It's ridiculous!! Much in the same way that I held respect and admiration for them for their historical support for us, they should do the same, especially with over 10,000 Americans in their soil. It's actually quite appaling and deplorable. I wonder what their real motivation is in this situation. Same thing with the Germans.
And someone has already responded to the dumbasses that say this war is for oil, so I won't give my opinion on that.
