This war is not necessary and is "dumb":

I've never really understood this view point. There has been an abundance of evidence over the past few months and even during the war, to justify military action.

Quote:
- you can't fight terrorism with conventional weapons. Terrorism is caused by injustice. Is it justice to free the Iraqis from Hussein by killing them?

It is Saddam's regime they are fighting, not terrorists, although terrorists have been targetted in Iraq. As for freeing Iraqi's by killing them, in order to remove an evil dictator a certian amount of force has to be used. So far I think under 50 Iraqi's have been killed. It is unfortunate, but if the end result is that Saddam's regime is toppled and the lives if thousands and thousands of Iraqi's are saved from Saddams clutches, then yes, it is justice.

If you lose your father, killed by a American bomb, I sware you, you would fight your whole life against America.

Well that depends how he was killed and why.

Quote:
- you just can fight against terrorism by supporting poor people and giving them justice. This war is the biggest gift for Osama: Tousands, millions of arabics are now ready to fight against the western countries. A fight we can't win. I'm afraid of it.

I very much doubt there are millinos ready to fight. I'm sure a lot are very resentful but they only voice their opinions and would never take the matter further. It is a relatively small number of people wishing to partake in terrorism. Unfortunately as was seen on 9/11 only a small number of people are needed to kill thousands.

Quote:
- Saddam has NOTHING to do with 9-11. He is neither a fanatic moslem nor a friend of Ibn Laden (by the way: you still have no evidence that Osama has something to to with 9-11, your "free press" only repeated it so often that the world believed it).

Who is linking Saddam with 9/11?....no-one I know, this is about WMD.

Quote:
Why don't you attac them? Cause you need the Saudi-Arabic oil.

It always boils down to oil when people opposing war are struggling to come up with a solid argument :)

Quote:
Do you really think that Saddam has the possibilitys to reach your country, when your government says that he has in comparison with 1991 only 1/3 of his military power.

It's more a case of saving Israeli's and Kuwaities (amongst others). thankfully the US/British have the balls to defend defenseless countries.

Quote:
I'm praying for more than 3000 dead civilian in NYC and over 6000 dead civilian in Afganistan

Mmm I'm tempted to say something in response to that but maybe you could clarify what you mean first incase you made a typo?

By the way, is "Bender Unit" the military unit you belong to? Cool
