I someone flies an iraqi painted plane over a no fly zone in the US, we are going to shoot the shit out of it...in fact, it wouldn't even make it far enough to reach our fly zone skies, and it would be shot down over the ocean and no one would even hear about it.
It was a plan to provoke an individual that was already intimidated by an individual/individuals that disagree with him.
Tony Blair and George Bush knew what would happen, and they basically poked the stick at the slow kid, knowing that he's gonna rebutle. They took advantage of something that should never have even been an issue...was it just convenient? We were just...well...in the area? "Hey, I was in the neighborhood so I thought I'd just drop a visit!"....
:eh: US Planes were regularly shot at during the Clinton administration too, and we bombed the piss out of Iraq quite a few times from 96-04. Now rephrase your argument without the Bush/Blair bashing please, I don't understand your point at all unless you're just trying to be funny.
