I like how you convieniently forget that the countries against are are on our bad side for a reason. But no, Saddam is a good guy after all right? His history of civil rights is just dandy
We supported Saddam against Iran
AFTER he used chemical weapons against the Kurds.
And as for human rights... why don't you do some research into how wonderful things are in Nigeria? What, haven't heard anything about it on the news? Maybe that's because Shell is making billions of dollars a year from the oil it's pumping out of Nigeria?
Hmmm......
Big government doesn't care about human rights violations, dictatorship, any of that bullshit. They'll prattle on about democracy but the bottom line is this:
As long as the country opens its borders to free trade, there's no problem. We'll turn a blind eye. But if they don't allow US-based multinationals in, all of a sudden they're the bad guy.

Care to indulge me as to what Bush did to aggrevate psycho ass Kim Jong-Il? Because its easy to say that Bush caused all of this, but not so easy to explain why.
By calling him part of the "Axis of Evil" and equating North Korea with Iraq, and then stating his intention to invade Iraq? Does any of this ring a bell? :slap:
