God dammit scratcher, pull your head out of your ass and put it near a text book! Obviously sarcasm is beyond you, even when my post is dripping with it. I stated that Japan deserved to be nuked as much as the US does. Actually, Japan had a good chance to avoid it and was rather stubborn, and even after one nuke they were stubborn. They deserved it more than the US, but the fact is, nobody deserves it, and you obviously can't get that from my post. Nobody deserves to be nuked. Do I have to say it again, or maybe you understand now?
Iraq dropping a nuke on the US would not give them any chance to win any war. In fact, it would almost definately lead to their country being completely obliterated, which could lead to retaliation from nearby countries, which could drag more countries into war, and ultimately end in a full fledged war. There are enough secret alliances and old partnerships around that if anyone dropped a nuke on anyone it could cause a chain reaction. It's just the way WWI started, and because the 14 points were ignored, there's still a good chance of it happening.
And I bet you'd "wish to took Bush out of command..." Way more than Saddam? Now, I won't say Bush is a great president, or a smart man..but uh.. I will say that you're not. I won't even get into how much worse Saddam is, despite everything bad about Bush...
And yes life would be boring with no wars..and meaningful..and peaceful..and would lead the human race to greater developments in science, rather than in weapons..
I'm not even going to continue with you, because either you're being sarcastic, which I wouldn't mind too much as flaming idiots is fun, or you really are one of the stupidest people I've ever talked to.
And as far as people "wanting to blow off steam"....thats just stupid. War's aren't about blowing off steam, most are about superiority, conquest, imperialism, religion, things like that, not just being bored. In a recent poll, it was the young people, 18-24, that sided with going to war, while about 70% of people 40+ are against it. Wonder why? Maybe because they've been there, know what its like, and what it accmoplishes. Why is there going to be a gulf war II? Maybe because there was a gulf war I, and afterwards it was not handled properly.
Seriously, just compare the end of WWI to the end of the Gulf War. The denial of the 14 points, the Leage of Nation, the German Reperations and War Guilt Clause, those all set up for another war. We did just the same in Iraq. We kept Saddam in power, with limitations that he broke anyway. We didn't help their economy. We kept troops stationed to do nothing but look good. We just abandoned them, and thats why they hate us. That's why there's going to be another war.
