Is war the answer?

[EvilBread]

I happened to be watching MTV for some mysterious reason and I noticed the title of the show currently on was "Is war the answer?" and it basically consisted of different people from all of the world from countries like norway, china, IRAQ, UK, ect. All people in their 20s it looked, and they would sit around and talk and ask Tony Blair(british prime minister) questions.

Now at first I thought this was just going to be ignorant questions yelling "this is a war for oil"(which did come up). But it wasnt, infact british prime minister tony blair explained deeply that this is not a war for oil under any circumstances, he explained that there are hundreds of other places we could go for oil and if we wanted iraqi oil we could simply make a deal. Oh well, onto my point here.

The show continued with people from UK and china and so on just totally against the war in anyway shape or form. Then I thought to myself, what do the Iraqi's think?? Then they asked an iraqi girl and she aswell was against the thought of war(cant go into details at the moment). But then an iraqi man who lived in bagdhad(cannot spell) for many years and he was very very much for this war, he wanted sadam hussein dead for everything he had done to his people, you could see in his eyes almost how much he was terrified of sadam hussein and how much he has done, he was begging tony blair to please overthrow sadam hussein. This left the other people asking questions speechless.

Did anyone else see this show? It was very interesting.

I saw a little bit of it. I saw the Iraqi-girl and she didnt seem totaly against the war. Maybe she was afraid that Saddam may see it and she may still have relatives in Iraq so she was cautious with what she was saying. You're right, the Iraqi-guy was begging that Saddam and his regime be takin out of power and to please liberate Iraq. I think today or tomorrow Iraqi born Americans are having a pro war march so hopefully that will sway some anti-war or atleast neutral people into thinking that maybe this war is justified afterallsince these people know first hand what its like to live under Saddam.

We're trying to steer clear of interviewing any Iraqi's with relevant opinions on the subject. We're content to talk to three of them, one on MSNBC who had never been to Iraq but had Iraqi grandparents and a force-fed pro-war view. As long as we get "Go Bush" from them, we're good.

*sigh*

I believe that war is NEVER teh answer to anything. From war all that you will get in a continued hate between countries that will only grow bigger and stronger until someday someone presses the button. when that day comes everyone on earth especially americans will think back to why all this started and they will wish they would ahve done different.

Shit it posted it... but is that what Bush wants?? He thinks that this is teh solution to everyones problems and he got this idear from his pops. He acts like it is Saddams fault that he is starting a war. Itw as not Saddams fault, he did not ask bush to get in his business. America thinks they are something better tehn everyone else and tehy think they are something special and that they can go and interfere in other peoples business for "the good of both nations", whjat a heap of bullshit, they do that to make them look good and to benefit america and no one else. FUCK AMERICAN PIGS!! Egotistical bastards!

If history has taught us anything, it's war is ALWAYS the answer. No conflict is ever solved positively without war.

India's independence from Great Britain. i'd say that's a great example.

So to resolve the Cold War you think it should have been a direct conflict?

No conflict is ever solved positively without war.

Like WW1 was solved positively....making World War 2!

I don't think that war is always the answer. If possible, a diplomatic solution should be pursued. However, as I have already said many times, it is my opinion that a diplomatic solution is NOT possible in the case of Iraq.

Yeah, it's not like India is at war with Pakistan, and both definitely aren't third world countries....that sure worked out great. India/Pakistan is SO important...

Important for the wrong reasons. They're both on the brink of blowing the hell out of each other with nuclear weapons. Remember the big scare awhile ago? On the front page of every newspaper.

Funny, we don't seem to be addressing Pakistan at all. They're more terrorist as a whole than Iraq. That's just one crazy guy with an itchy trigger finger.
