As we all know President Bush wants to eliminate Saddam Hussein and many people especially here in Europe are afraid that he will start another gulf war because of that. What do you think would be the best solution?

i think we need to destroy everyhting in iraq that threatens the world. the man is crazy, and at anyminuit he could point a chemical waepon at mine or your country, and launch them. the us needs to do what they did to afghanistan, overthrow the gov't and set up a new one.

I don't think we should do anything, but hope for a revolution and let his own people throw him out of power. Saddam is a two-bit dictator, and not worthy of our time and effort. Plus we don't need to give the US government more need to start wars that we can't win.

I think we should do something about it. We started at least two conflicts with Saadam, we might as well finish the job. Saadam could pose quite a threat if we left him alone.

we barely have any support to begin with we basically just have a few true allies like you guys and then we have some guys that are, our allies because they don't want to get on america's bad side. We are the most hated country in the world so i don't think losing support is much of a problem.

True, but the EU is putting pressure on Blair to stop supporting it. A lot of european countries don't see war as the answer. It leaves him with a difficult choice. Anyway, the main reason for not losing support and not been too war happy is that you want to look like you are doing it for the right reasons.you want to be seen as the good guys. He is a madman but you don't want to upset half the world getting rid of him - it needs to be done carefully.

Can't the US for once just keep their noses out of other country's buisness? It seems that they have to put their foot in the door of everyone's problems. For once can't we worry about our own problems in our own country??

[/B][/QUOTE]Well Sadam supported and some of the men who crashed the planes in the WTC were trained in Iraq, so yes it is our problem. How can we let something like that happen again, he posses a threat to us and our interests aborad and we're not so dependent on Iraqi oil as people think. Its our allies UK and Japan which our so depenedent on their oil. As long as he is in power, he will remain a threat.

All we need to do is take care of him. Like in GTAIII, In the misson 'Sayonara Salvatore' you don't have to destroy the LF Mafia to kill the Don.

Our special ops teams nowadays are the best in the world, with the exception of maybe the British SAS. We could easily get the job done.

I'm going to say just kill him and leave the country out of it. The only bad thing is is that they have some many phscos over there that another person might come into office and he could be even worse lol. If that would happen, then I just say nuke the whole country lol jk, that's a little harsh.

Ok, it's been a whiule since this thread's been brought up, but I figure it's time again. Bush reall wants Saddam out, as well as most Americans, except myself. I personally feel no need for us to go in there and waste the place. Europe doesn't want us to, Arabs don't wan us to, Asia doesn't want us to, why do we want to? I was reading a report today and it read "but a top Arab diplomat cautioned that a war to oust the Iraqi leader would 'open the gates of hell.'" Now, I pose this question, is this man worth the loss of thousands more civilian deaths on both sides? No. He's not. Just send a massive team of inspectors in there, enough where he can't hide anything. It seems logical to me. None of our Allies want to help us, so why should we rush in? Anyways. Just to clear some things up about my political stance: I'm neither republican, nor a democrat. I'm actually a libertarian and I believe in staying out of other countries buisness. With that said, everyone give feedback. Oh ya, It would be nice if the people from other places on the globe would reply too, I want to get a feel of what everyone's thinking.

Thought weapons inspector's would be ideal, it would be impossiblem to find all weapons development locations without, essentially, taking control of Iraq. If we do attack Iraq, however, I doubt it will be the massive invasion depicted in the news papers.


To say this is "not our buisness" is ridiculus. He's developing nuclear weapons. That is our buisness.

i agree with the people that say its our buisness. for those of you who say its not our buisness: before the 9/11 attacks, how many of you said that getting the taliban out of afghanistan wasnt our buisness? probably most of us. now after they showed that they have the courage and power to attack the united states, people now say to get them out. should we wait for iraq to attack us? no. we all know husain is a bad man and he is very dangerous with very very powerful weapons. now what if Bush waits a little longer and the sum of all fears happens and takes out the whole new york city and the surrounding areas? i say get him out of there.

Let's see, a bratty little neighbor kid has a BB gun. He shoots people with this BB gun until you take it away from him. He vows to get the world back someday, including you. Now this kid is trying to get a bazooka. Do you: A. Sit it out and not pay attention to him until he does get a bazooka, B. Listen to his crappy parents and let him try to get the bazooka, C. See if the toy soldiers in the room come alive and make sure he doesn't get his bazooka or, D. Make sure that kid doesn't get a bazooka EVER, take away all of his other little "toys" away, and basically stop him from terrorizing the entire neighborhood. Hmmm....this is a toughy. We (the US) represent the big, bad, burly, filthy rich neighbor who always is disciplining the kids who are starting trouble in the neighborhood because A. He can, B. It's the right thing to do, and C. No one else had the courage to do it. He may not be the most popular guy, but stands up for what's right.

Well, my opinions are:

1. Saddam is a bad guy, he should be dealt with long long time ago. Many actually think the reason he was kept in place by Bush senior in 1991 because America wanted him to remain a threat to Iran, another American enemy.

Also, guess who's the one that put Saddam in his place in the beginning? Who provided his teeth? Who armed Saddam so strong in the first place to counter Iran?

2. It may not be as easy as it was in Afghanista, you bring in special forces to help local rebel and overthrow the bad guys. Both the Kurdish and Shiite rebels in Iraq have lots of troops, but not enough artillery and armor equipment to face with Saddam's iron column. In Afghanista, the Northern Alliance was already pretty strong (considering they have their own air force and helicopter gunships plus some Russian armor), and Taliban has little air power to pound them.

By the way, I am not sure whether the Kurds and Shiite will trust American either, since America was the one that left them to be massarced by Saddam during thier failed rebellion after the Gulf War.

3. My guess, it can be done, provided there is money to do it. Last time, the Saudis and Japanese were paying the bill, now is American taxpayers going to pay alone?

4. Another cheaper alternative, it's called "encouraging the tiger to swallow the wolf". That tiger would be Saddam's nemesis for the last 2 decades, the Iranians and the Shiite minority in southern Iraq.

Either way, US is going to go to Russia to buy some obsolete (but valuable to some) Russian stuffs for whomever that's going to overthrow Saddam (as US had done in Afghanistan).
