LOL sorry for the sarcasm....I simply could not help myself

No you are right so far we have found a couple of hand grenades....and a half chewed pack of juicy fruit.

Otherwise known in the covert world as contraband commonly known to be used in the manufacturing of WMD's

Way to divert from what Greenspan stated. :clap

no it was funny.

99% of Danny's post that you were responding to was quoting Greesnspan. All Danny did was agree with him.

And don't call me dear ... we aren't that close yet.

 

[BadBoy@TheWheel]

Bullshit, I knew that saddam had only what was given him.....By us.

They were no closer to having a nuclear device than Africa for crying out loud.

Personally I think this whole thing is was a diversion, to distract us from Iran and China, you only think we have issues in the middle east, wait until those little bastards build a bomb, you want to talk about somebody that has motivation to kick our ass into the stone age?

Oh and guees who is going to supply them oil to do it?

Remember Russia? Let's keep throwing rocks at folks in their bathrobes and see who jams a real bomb up our ass.

Yeah, Bad@thewheel has some pretty good one liners.

I am truly sorry. I don't totally disagree with Greenspan, an intelligent man he has always been.

But he knows where all the bones are buried also. He knows the only three letters we were going there for was OIL.

Are you implying that the Russian Federation is going to attack us?

 

[BadBoy@TheWheel]

No I am telling you that Russia is doctoring up a deal to pipe oil to China.

And you can bet on that one.

 

[DannyK]

Are you saying they want to bomb us over the whole crashed spyplane thing?

 

[BadBoy@TheWheel]

No China has a major thirst for Oil, and enriched uranium, Russia has oil it needs to sell and FRANCE produces enriched uranium from spent fuel rods.

See a pattern?

 

[GraceAbounds]

Are you implying that the Russian Federation is going to attack us?

I don't trust Russia.

 

[BadBoy@TheWheel]

I don't trust Russia.

They no longer have the military muscle, but they have a ton of missing nuclear scientists, and a lot of oil and gas.

 

[DannyK]

It isn't even the same country anymore!:confused

 

[antilos]

Cold war, territorial allotment...

Iraq is about oil. its just that we're not tapping its oil resources right now. its for reserve.

Brilliant argument. The proof that we went there for oil is that we don't have the oil we supposedly went there for.

Even if he did have them, he wasn't stupid enough to launched them towards a western country.

He wasn't crazy as in "insanity". He was just a megalomaniac/jerkoff


Why wouldn't he? Because his entire country would be obliterated in a second in response. He didn't want to lose his power, and risk that. He loved his power.

He really wouldn't.

This is the second time you've proclaimed to know exactly what an insane dictator would or would not do. I called bullshit last time, and I'm doing it again. You're making assumptions based on what you logically see as the consequences of those actions. Then you're assuming that Saddam saw the situation the same way. You don't know that.

Ok, you knew what the entire global intelligence community did not know? Not buying it.

[All Else Failed]

"I was not saying that that's the administration's motive," Greenspan said in an interview Saturday, "I'm just saying that if somebody asked me, 'Are we fortunate in taking out Saddam?' I would say it was essential."

that the war was "largely about oil"

But, he added, "I know the same allegation was made about the Gulf War in 1991, and I just don't believe it's true."

Publicly, little evidence has emerged to support that view, although a top-secret National Security Presidential Directive, titled "Iraq: Goals, Objectives and Strategy" and signed by Bush in August 2002 -- seven months before the invasion -- listed as one of many objectives "
to minimize disruption in international oil markets."

As for Iraq, Greenspan said that at the time of the invasion, he believed, like Bush, that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction "because Saddam was acting so guiltily trying to protect something." While he was "reasonably sure he did not have an atomic weapon," he added, "my view was that if we do nothing, eventually he would gain control of a weapon."

I dunno man, sounds like he wasnt there only for oil to me.

The other reason being to establish a permanant military base of operations in the middle east.
