But, that's OK. Keep on keeping on in your twisted views of whatever the world should do so as not to inconvenience you yourself personally.


Hmm...I didn't read him saying "The UN is probably going to tell the US to disarm.". To me, it looked more like a "what if" situation.

Oh wait, it didn't only look like it......it WAS Very poor troll, NYE.

You'd know a troll.

But then, crying 'troll' is rather easy, isn't it? Try to address...

'Not to mention the UN rarely, if ever, demands any state disarms'

Go ahead. You can do it if you try hard enough.

See, but that wasn't the main troll, it was only somethin to amplify it. Your troll was saying that the UN would never do that, knowing full well that he knows it and was not saying that it would.

I don't quite see the relevance of that. Why should the UN be able to demand that ANY sovereign state disarm?

Even I admit the UN would never try to force the US to disarm. But IF the UN did, should the US have to disarm, and would the US be at fault if the UN invaded them after they refused?

No NYE, I dont. Dont put words in my mouth, its unbecoming of you.

I said that what he said is a WHAT IF situation. He knows it'll never happen, I know it'll never happen, you know that both of us know it'll never happen. You trolled.

In fact, his statement does add to his arguement, if only ever so slightly. It's not "stupid" by any means.

What do you mean? It's idiotic.

First off, the UN has demanded disarmament of a state in exactly one situation. That's right. This is unique to Saddam.

Second off, should the UN ever manage to sneak such an idiotic motion through, they would be completely justified in trying to back it up.

Back it up? Huh huh. That's a funny one.

It's nonsensical, though. The US has created and started much more war than Saddam has. The US has caused far more civilians deaths than Saddam has. The US has exported far more weapons than Saddam has. The US has created far more WMDs than Saddam has. The US has used far more WMDs than Saddam has.

So why shouldn't the UN demand that the US disarm?

Oh, possibly because the US and allies told them to demand that Iraq disarm, and because the US had the force to make it stick?

Maybe because disarming was a part of the Gulf War 1 cease fire agreement that has been violated for over 12 years?

Speaking of backing the UN up, I can't wait till the US enforces the 33 resolution violations by Israel.....Instead of focusing on the 17 by Saddam.

Do you want to speak about the Security Council or the General Assembly?

Do you want to talk about facts, or spread disinformation?

The western allies were obviously the aggressors. After all Hitler never harmed them the dirty Imperialists were just trying to stick there noses into a German-Polish dispute.

If someone wishes to find justification for failing to do the morally correct thing then they can always pull something out of their ass. That doesn't make it right but they can do it.

The U.N. didn't have the right to demand Saddam withdraw from Kuwait? On what do you base that opinion?

Dear Agathon,

Bush is the President of the United States of America.
Bush is the person who will be attacking Iraq with or without Canada's blessing.
Protesting it is pointless because he doesn't care what you think, he'll do it anyway.

Thanks for your time,
Dave

This is brilliant -- mention about how I'm in no place to snipe at people possessing better character than myself after you've thrown several insults at me (while I have thrown none at you), and to top it off you plug your ears and shriek "I can't hear you!" by putting me on your ignore list.

Of the nations opposing us, there is not a single one that does not receive significant aid from us (yes, including France and Germany). Again I ask, why do we continue this?

Or maybe the lack of response is answer enough.
