we all just might die!!!!!
if everthing ive heard is true (and im pretty sure it is!)then we are most likely going to nuke Iraq. First of all if saddam does have all those weapons......so far saddam hasnt done anything to us......yet. If we go and nuke him hes just not going to sit there and do nothing.So far he doesnt have a good excuse to do anything to us, but if we nuke him, then hes gonna have a pretty damn good excuse to nuke us i mean think about it. Also even if hes only got 3 nukes thats still going to do a lot of damage. Modern nukes are hundreds of times more dangerous and effective than the ones we used in WW2. If we nuke him its just going to be a contest of who can keep on pressing the red button the fastest. Also if we nuke them its not just going to affect Iraq, its going to effect the whole middle east and the whole world. Maybe bush and some of u should go and research the explosion of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant and how it affected the whole world and research the suitability of the land Chernobyl once sat on, and think about how many people would die from the explosion, radiation, and cancer it would cause. Dont get me wrong im a republican and a very conservatist one at that but i just think what we are going to do is wrong and should be thought through more. feel free to comment but im not going to be able to read them till next saturday. but if u email me at [email protected] ill do my best to reply to u within that day. But please do not flame me just because u do not agree w/me everybody has the freedom to free speech (least in the US) and im just taking advantage of it. But do feel free to Email me and please post and grade it accordingly.
maybe we will all just die
What is true and untrue is ambiguous at times and everyone has a different train of thought upon this subject( as you can see by reading these posts and by also watching the news on TV. One argument after the other. I do not like the idea of war so many innocents will die. I had a Muslim woman for a patient once, she told me that jihad (or holy war) is allowed only if someone if trying to take your home or land or trying to force you to change your religion. The Koran teaches much the same as our Bible. As she said many people will use their religion as an excuse to destroy. However, if war does come I would definitly support our cause with all my effort. I thank God that I don't live in Afganistan or any other third world country(my husband says I would be dead within the week for opening my mouth. LOL) I am thankful to be free and would fight for that priviledge Auntie

Correction for you, Jihad does NOT translate as "holy war". But I can understand why we would choose to refer to it as that. What with so many muslim loonies declaring Jihad left, right and center :D . But Jihad means "(to) struggle".
Also a question for you...what "third" World countries have you been to? Or your husband?
Thx in advance for replying :)
