Saddam was getting ready to attack us don’t you remember the mobile biological labs (the only reason we’ve not found them yet is cos they are on the move). Can’t you remember watching all this on Fox news. god bless america Poor Dappa. <laughing Your obvious suffering from the Dumbing Down of America has you reeling.  Take a few deep breaths, stick your head down between your legs.  Then, when you’re batter, I’ll send you the cash to go and see the movie.  That’s right, cash for you and a date/friend to go and see it so you won’t stick your foot in your mouth again in front of all these fine people here.

Miles, Dappa was being sarcastic. Read some of his/her other posts. – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – Miles "Never Had A Taker Yet, Ignorance Apparently IS Bliss" Long [Things Michael Moore left out but could have easily included such as] Article VI of the Nuremberg Charter defines "Crimes Against Peace" as "planning, preparation, initiation or waging of war of aggression or war in violation of international treaties . . . or participation in a common plan or conspiracy . . . to wage an aggressive war." The Bush doctrine of "pre-emption" really had nothing to do with pre-empting an Iraqi attack on the U.S. It is simply the widely discredited Nazi doctrine of "preventive war" established by Hitler to claim the right to attack any country that may pose some possible threat at an unspecific time in the future. July 20th, 2004 12:52 pm Fahrenheit 911 is Fair and Balanced by Bob Fitrakis and Harvey Wasserman / Common Dreams We’ve come to expect poisonous and unbalanced attacks from the paid far right propagandists denouncing Michael Moore’s documentary "Fahrenheit 911."  But more disturbing are the scolds from tepid moderate mainstream journalists who often fail to read their own newspapers. New York Times columnist Nicholas D. Kristof attacks the film because "Moore hints that the real reason Bush invaded Afghanistan was to give his cronies a chance to profit by building an oil pipeline there." Kristof attacks Moore for even raising this issue,.  But he conveniently ignores volumes of information readily available to back up Moore’s claim. Perhaps Kristof, like President Bush, refuses to read. At least that would explain why he missed the raging international debate surrounding the Bush administration’s well-documented, then-secret oil negotiations with the Taliban in the summer of 2001. The book FORBIDDEN TRUTH:  U.S.-TALIBAN SECRET OIL DIPLOMACY AND THE FAILED HUNT FOR BIN LADEN was an international bestseller. Written by French Intelligence experts Jean-Charles Brisard and Guillaume Dasqui
