But in this day and age, E5C4P3, that's not enough. You want to know what this all comes down to? It all comes down to the control of information. Information warfare.

During the Gulf Conflict (I won't call it a war cause it was anything but that) both sides let the other know what was going on throught the media. i.e. The U.S. had correspondents from the media show amphibious assaults taking place in south Iraq, so Saddam sent troops to try to squash the newly developed front. Were there any U.S. troops there, no. It was developed to fool him, and it did. Saddam on the other hand controlled what came from Iraq...Not only when correspondents delivered their news but also what the news was about and of course that only meant reporting how the U.S bombed schoools and churches, hospitals, etc. etc. Right now Saddam is telling his people that the U.S. president won't debate with him on International T.V. because he is afraid and totally unreasonable. He's telling his people this evil white imperialist is going to invade them no matter what. So the whole world is up in arms about this "war"... This is no war. The media makes it out to be one because they have possible financial gain.

The entire world's emotions is controlled by what it reads or sees or hears in the media.

Not just CNN and Fox my, oh so, enlightened neg antipoint givers, but every media from the Washington Post to Al Jahzeera, from Time magazine to the most unpronounceable Russian news program, every one without exception. All of them are in control not you, you puny lil' person. They control the vertical, the horizontal, and all of you bow to them as often as you can, knowing that YOU are the only ones with the REAL information, the only HONEST information.

12 years have gone by since the world passed judgement on this man, and now that the time has come, you all want to turn your back on your responsiblility and your only argument is "no war for oil". Pathetic

P.S. War does suck. But the U.S. isn't the one that brought this on. So blame the U.S. for everything you want, but always know that we will prevail and if any of your nations get into trouble, we will be the first to bail our asses out.
