a psychopath gets into power and starts with the genocide of murders.
So I hoped that the UN would go into Iraq right after the genocide of Kurdish villages. I was very happy the UN (or Nato..anyone really) went in after Milosevic.
I wished that the the UN had go into Iraq after the first war. Instead the genocides continued.
I would have been for an invasion of Iraq if the UN had voted for it and gone in for human rights reasons (thousands of kids were starving during Oil for Food). But the UN never faced that. They never did anything about that.
I am against the war that was fought on the basis of a new precedent that Bush wanted to be created (this country could be a threat to us some day). And it was a war that Rumsfield planned horribly. He keeps blaming the Turks but in reality Rumsfield took the Iraq war plan and pared it down from 400,000 soldiers needed to 150,000 soldiers needed. So they did not win the peace. Rumsfield was vain and thought America could win it using minimal troops and smart bombs. And he forgot about terrorism. He is a monster and an asshole. His assumptions were wrong. They would have had the 400,000 troops if they had pushed the UN equally hard to go after Saddam on his continued human rights violations and genocides.
I think the UN should go into Darfur. I think the UN should have gone into Rwanda. They should have gone after Pol Pot sooner.
I am for war if a genocide is occurring.
In fact, I think that a body like the UN should have world judicial authority to go in and MRI any new leader/strongman and kick them out if they do not pass the humanity test. Especially if they start with the tribal wars and persecution. As soon as the early stage of genocides start.. the clock should start ticking. The clock should also start ticking on Utopians who get into power and start using coercion to make their dreamy dreams come true. They are drinking their own ****. After the 20th Century, both Utopians and sociopaths should be coerced into not seeking power.
I am very glad Saddam is gone. I am very upset that the Bushites did it in a way that was vain, a lie, utopian, delusional, badly planned, selfish, creepy, incompetent, heartless for civilians, didn't allow for UN procurement laws (which would have seen markets develop left right and centre among Iraqis themselves with Oil Companies the world over rushing in a throwing money all over the place.. and trust me.. the bad guys would be following the money now or hiring people to follow the money rather than car-bombing) and didn't set a proper precedent for going in for human rights violations and take 200,000 extra international troops with them and shut the insurgency down at the get go.
I am glad that there seems to be a chance at peace in Palestine & Israel. I am glad that the Lebanese have taken the mantle away from the Syrians. Bush was responsible for none of this (unless he wants to take responsibility for the deaths of two leaders).
I am glad that the Taliban lost power in Afghanistan. That was a justified war.
I wish we (UN) would go into Darfur.
