here in madrid at 6:00 pm I will go this is the only way I have of making my opinion count to spanish governors: please dont let this war happen I am ashamed of my governors |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
is this happening in other countries? |
||||||||
|
|

it's amazing how the people of this mb cares about politics and war....... |
||||||||
|
|

I think there's a demonstration in Brussels every week or so. The Belgian government is against a war, does that mean it worked? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
There's a demonstration here in London....its on TV now! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
sounds very good. it's not that often so many people all around the world express their opinion with such a volume. there really can't be too many demonstrations on this subjects. Every demonstration, no matter how small, makes a difference because small streams make up a big one and that is exactly the power of the peace movement. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The demonstrations will have no effect on the decisions. Those decisions have already been made.....they are just waiting for the fleet of warships to arrive in the region I think! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
the governors have to listen to the citizens of the world |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
even if bush can't give a fuck about the people of the world i think we all must express our opinions. everyone is against that war,i don't know anyone that wants this war. |
||||||||
|

Do you not think Sadam Hussein needs to be stopped? And do you think so many of you are against it because here on the message board are of the age where they could be conscripted into the war (worst case scenario). |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

i think the us is not far from a political suicide if the strike iraq without the UN:s permission. The rest of the world has the power to stop the us government from fucking around. It just demands more radical actions we've seen so far. I'm talking something in the lines of boycott and other financial pressure... |

The US 'will' go this alone regardless....George Bush is gonna get them. Tony Blaire will always side with the US as well. Both of our countries have deployed troops there.... A friend of mine, her son is in the army and is going to Kuiwait on Monday. |

|
bush needs some proofs(prove.....i don't know the english word)a preventive war is totally wrong. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
sadam hussein must be stopped, but bush too. war is not the way |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
How do you think it should be dealt with? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
war must never be the solution, so we must try any other way. ok: more power to international laws, so that this crazy governors (sadam, pinochet, milosevic....... bush) can be put in prison if they break those international laws international agreement |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
diplomacy.saddam must disarm but war creates a lot of problems. |
||||||||
|

I think the UN should send a team of inspectors to the us. They've got the largest amount of weapons of mass destruction in the world and i doubt they would hesitate to use them too. And then the UN could give Iraq, Al Qaida, North-Korea etc. permission to attack the us. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
more power and independence for inspectors (uno) |
||||||||
|
|

that second part of your post is not even funny |

i might hit up Hollywood tomarrow, theres another march, but Ive already been to so many. Sometimes I feel like its redundant. But I should try to go and not be such a lazy ass. |

a recent poll given to various european nations asking which nation, during this time of great tumult, was the greatest global threat. the poll resulted as follows: 3. North Korea 2. Iraq 1. USA hmm.. I was doing a bit of anti-war protesting a few months ago.. I realize the futility of it though. I love that people are protesting this war.. but there is no chance for peace.. bush is going to get his way |

Idd Supreme, this afternoon is the big one in Brussels. Their were already some smaller demonstrations the past week. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well but we cannot and must not stay quiet |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I don't think Bush is breaking any laws. I see your point and sympathise, but we have to defend ourselves. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if bush attack without UN permission that will be breaking laws and he is threatening the world with doing it |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
he is threatening the world with doing it so lets star a preventive war against USA?? you see my point? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Its not an unprovoked attack though! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
For what reason would you send UN inspectors to the US? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

Diplomacy has doen nothing to change the Iraqi regime over the past 12 years. You can strengthen international law all you like, but Saddam Hussein will just ignore, like he has done for 12 years. Seriously, when do we say enough is enough? When his family have ruled Iraq for a hundred years and killed literally millions of their own people and consigned the rest to perpetual poverty and suffering? |

hussein is an aging dictator, attacking the US and conquering the world are not items on his agenda. he has no ties to bin Laden or al-qaeda. he's an arab nationalist , bin Laden is a fundamentalist muslim. they have , and wish to share nothing in common. all "evidence" that contradicts this is propaganda. yes, hussein killed his own people.. in the mid-80's.. let's get off that, esp. considering bush has put more people to death than any governor in the history of texas. .. this is just a grudge match, W is restarting what daddy couldn't finish.. a lot of people forget that George H. W. Bush (or King George I) is the president of the US right now. |

i never seem to remember sarcasm is never a good idea on the internet. i was merely pointing out the us is the most dangerous country in the world. they are much bigger a threat to the world than iraq or any other country for that matter. if iraq isn't going to be allowed to defend itself, why should us be? |
||||||||
|

dont agree here |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
yes.. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
from what?? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think jedi chris is mistakenly linking hussein and iraq to the 9/11 attacks |
||||||||
|

If the Iraqi military want to defend Iraq, then I'm sure they will have a go. We may well find that in the interests of self-preservation very few of them do though. |

Saddam has killed plenty of his own people since the mid-80s, just ask the marsh Arabs and Kurds. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Maybe.... ..our Prime Minister was on TV a while ago, saying that force was indeed a last resort! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and the US let him kill the Kurds..after egging the Kurds on to revolt.. American planes were hovering overhead as the Iraqi helicopters wiped out village after village.. Turkey is exterminating Kurds with no less exuberence and they are getting more and more weapons and millitary aid from the US and UK... so it doesnt prove jack..daddio.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ok.. I'll go ask the kurds now |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
your prime minister is a hopeless case..I wouldnt trust him as far as I could throw him and would advise you to do the same.. after all his dossier that was his biggest case for war on Iraq was a plagerism of a research paper written 10 years ago by an Iraqi American student... your own Intelligence agencies are going around negating his line on the presumed links between iraq and Al Qaeda... |

Is everyones concern that something like this could errupt in WWIII? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
err.. YESss.. now you gettin it mate... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I don't think it would come to that! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that won't happen though.. it's not like anyone is actually AGAINST the US.. they're just against the US going to war for no good reason |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that being WW3 |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
im totally agains war but iraqi-if they really have that mas destruction weapons-present a danger to world peace, and something should be done-certanly not war though when people compare US and their weapons to iraqi situation: its not nearly as dangerous that something might go wrong, since it is a democratic country with ellected governament on the other hand-saddam is a dictator, a very unpredictable one, and someone should do something about it... if iraqi really have these weapons, it should be destroyed, but certanly not with starting a war... |
