. . . nothing happened in the "real" world until you were born -- looks like as far back as yesterday.
Thanx for the input, useless as it was.
Dear Davin,
Your choice of evidence was there, granted, but heavily overshadowed by far more formative sources than those you claim. That remains factual. Regardless of today (which is all you seem to care about in this thread), the history that led up to the War of Terror moving on Iraq says terror connections existed. Try all you will, the history remains intact. Play with it all you will, the past has successfully passed.
And to assume the world glide blithely along with no regard for media prejudice is to say the media has no purpose, and it clearly does. It’s the conscience of the planet, though not always (and some would say almost never) right. Yes, the AP, Reuters, UPI, APF, et al (which do get their data from such sources as "State department whitepaper, National Review, Christian Science Monitor, New Republic, BBC and etc") do guide us in our daily, oft times faulty decisions.
Today we await hard evidence one way or the other, and your shouting from the highest mountain at the top of your lungs will not speed the process--no matter how many Zhavrics you wave above your head and support. The evidence you tout remains faulty, as your sources fail to prove anything other than speculation, while mine merely dregs up WMD usage by Iraq during Desert Storm against U.S. troops, the recently found mass-graves for Husseins experiments, and terrorist (you might call them “militaryâ€, but that just turns my stomach) training camps located on Iraqi soil. Of course none of that ever happens in Bowserworld, so you can go ahead and rest your weary head.
As it stands, what really happened in Iraq might never fully be known -- well, in our lifetimes, anyway. There’s such a large influx of Middle East mercs and martyr-wannabes from Syria, Iran ands Saudi Arabia, that the mess might remain just that, a complete mess.
Put that in your hookah and take a good, long drag. We'll see if we can wake you in the morning.
Ciao-ciao, now,
Dan
