Who thinks Saddam is dead

Ishbar who are you to talk about military stupidity, your canadian military is soooo stupid... oh wait!!! you don't have a military, and on top of that you don't have helicopters TO crash in style with do you?

I don't think he's dead, but does it matter. The country was rubble to begin with, now it's just been bombed into smaller rubble. The cost of war may be worth it, but was a lot higher than it should have been due to military stupidity. Americain shooting allies left and right and Helicopters crashing all over the place. I'm not saying helicopter crashes don't happen, but at least Canadian troops know how to crash with style and grace so noone gets hurt. My guess is "So-Damn" never had weapons but when he got threaten my outnumbering troops and bombs he walked out of the country. Shave the mustach and wear a hat and no one will reackonize him.

Give me a break Ishbar. This is a war not an easter egg hunt, of course helicopters are going to crash. By the way what was the last war your country fought in and was there any friendly fire incidents ? Im sure if you look it up you will find some. The campaign that has just been waged is one of the most successful in all our history, and we have many successes. I do know that we hit some of your guys in Afghanistan and i extend my apologies, but you have to realize it is a war and these things will and do happen.

A few weeks ago of the French journalists said that Saddam suffered from a cancer. Imagine worst scenarios: Saddam died well before the beginning of the conflict and its government continued the play the game of terror on the people. Always in the worst, imagine that what one believes Saddam being is in fact a double and vice versa. Let us hope that this is only a fiction.

I have to disagree with you about that one bballad, chemical and biological weapons could very easily kill many people. Maybe not on the battlefield but if they sent someone to the U.S. and dropped some of the stuff that they own in the water supply or set them off in a place with a high concentration of people then there would most definitley be many deaths from it. I'm not trying to be paraniod or anything or say that they would ever have the balls to try it, but I'm just saying that it could hurt many people.

There are no evidence of this being possable and a lot shoing that chemical waepons used on civilian targets cause terror but not much else. In the 90's cerain(sp?) gas was released in the japanese subway system during rush hour. Out of the tens of thousands of people there the death toal was in the single digites...chemicals are not a WMD. As for biologicals, well one person on a plane with ebola would do a lot more damage then all the man made smallpox and ebola in the world.

He's probably living in France or Russia, I think we all know why France made a vito on 2nd resolution because they were supplying weapons to Iraq. After all the sacrifices made by alliance troops in WW2 (I know it was 50 odd years ago) But you would expect some sort of gratitude from the frogs (French). Maybe not just a knife in the back instead.

I think that is very shortsighted thinking. Just because the French disagreed with America and were vocal about their opposition to the war, now many Americans complain about them being ungrateful for the sacrifices made by American servicemen and women during WWII. So by that thinking are they meant to be subservient to the US's wishes for all eternity? A true friend will tell their friend what their opinion is on important issues. Even if they have different views. And besides which, if you want to follow that logic didn't the French fight for the US against the British (Bush's No. 1 buddy of the moment) way back in the beginning?

I don't know. I am sure there are many many people within the US security and intelligence apparatus that are trying very hard. But reports of the Saudi charted jet flying around the US in the week after Sep 11 collecting the Bin Laden family add to peoples reservations (conspiracy theory banks etc) about how hard they're trying. I sure would like to see those FBI files on the Kennedy assassination...
