If the United States backed Iraq when they 'gassed the Kurds'....
I know some here believe that it was in fact Iran that gassed the Kurds. But lets just play like it was Iraq for this moment. When Iraq 'gassed the Kurds' they were being backed by the United States, correct? Well, does that not mean we're guilty by association? So when Bush hypes up the gassing to justify the attack; shouldn't Bush be attacking the terrorist state known as America? Remember, Bush said he'd go after any terrorist state, or any state that was helping terrorists. Well during that time we were helping Iraq, thus WE were helping terrorists.

Mr. Bush is Mr. Hypocrite!

2. Well, thats just the beginning.
If he were truly intersted in going after those who sponsor and support terror, why in the world is Jim Baker defending Saudi Arabia against Americans citizens in a lawsuit filed by families of 9/11 victims?

3. Perhaps Dimson will bring Poppy up on charges of enabling
terrorism.

But I guarantee if it had been a Democrat who had done this shit, we'd have it drilled into our collective sub-conscious by now.

First Noreiga, now Saddam. Republicans are going to have a real hard time finding RW tyrants to do their bidding if this is the thanks that they get for promoting illegal and anti-democratic actions in their countries.
