Did anyone just watch the monster (Saddam) speak?

I missed it. What did he have to say? (As if it will do any good now).

Not much, infact they are saying it wasent even live, but just a tape.

bleh, war is pointless, it never solves anything in the end

all those mothers and kids dying just because one's
election was due to oil companies :(.....

don't get me wrong i'm a peacefull frenchie, but i'm ashamed
of chirac's position.

but everyone knows that war never solved anything :(...
remember vietnam, algeria (for us frenchies), mogadiscio,
kossovo, afghanistan.... what is the benefit of war ? look
more closely and you will understand that the sole benefit
of those wars is geostrategic and economical.

And us, the people, we are just here to watch on tv or if
we are not lucky enough to live in the right country, to receive
the bombs on our house...

I am very very sad. And i hate all those mediatic lies that we
are given by the big companys which owns the medias :(.


ps:sorry to be so french on that one :p

War is never pointless. It is always a last resort. We have all that we have because of war and what it accomplishes. Wars have been around since the beginning or time and they will always be around. Agree with them or not, that's the way it is. You can only talk things out so long and as long as both sides are willing. Saddam gave that up a long time ago. I'm surprised we waited this long to go after him. We are the only chance the Iraqi people have now. It is either us or continuing genocide from Saddam.

For myself i think that war in our history is what has
made us progress so slowly on the path of being
a united humanity...

Look at all those knowledges destroyed by wars in our history !!

Know that bagdad is the first city of all human history, that
bagdad has seen the first laws in all human history.

I think that the real last resort is peace and friendship
between people :)...

Anyway, i'm not against that war precisely, i'm against all
kind of violence. And i'll never admit that war has a point.
War destroys, even if it frees a people from a monster,
but are there no other monsters on earth as we are talking ?
come on dont be blind on the sole reason for that war : OIL !

the 'genocide' saddam perpetrated against the kurd people
has been perpetrated because of the first gulf war... So on
that one too war had no point... ah yes i know the point
of that one, koweiti were liberated... koweit a nice democracy
where philippin girls get raped in prisons !!

once again dont get me wrong, i'm not on the side of chirac,
he is only adopting that opinion out of interests. I'm on my
side, the side of democracy... and i'm sad to say that, but
bush represents my side. And what makes my side better is
that people like me can be on that side and still say that
war is wrong.

One day, we will all live in peace and harmony ;) and that day
you'll know that nothing ever came out of war but destruction ;)

We had the Australian PM on an Adress to the nation too, he's trying to hard to convince Australia what he's doing with supporting American is correct, and frankly I think it's not working.

You missed WWI, WW2, where we saved thousands of lives.

@Keptic: well saving thousands of liefe by killing othere thousands of lives....

Well i knew that day would come, so i'm really not surprised, it's just intresting to see how people react on this theme, and even see changings of my owns opinion ...

As Boofo said, without war, the humanity would be in the stone age. War is the father of all things, you know that quote.
It's sad but it's true. Without the WWI we wouldn't be able to flight to america on one day and to japan the other day, at least not that fast.
