He got his head chopped off! Oh yeah, that was Highlander!


>>>In 1935 Adolph Hitler massed two divisions of the German Army at the border of Poland. Jozef Pilsudski, the leader of Poland, sent two divisions of the Polish Army to oppose the German Army. Hitler sent a telegram to Pilsudski, apologizing for his actions and withdrew his troops.
>>>
>>>In the past a threat has been met with a threat or counter threat. Such is the story of the past. Now we want to act because of past actions of Saddam and possible future actions with no substance or substantive evidence that would warrant war.
>>
>>While past behavior is not a definitive roadmap to future behavior, it is certainly a strong indicator. As Hitler's invasions of his neighbors before Poland were an indicator, Saddam's previous 23 years are too. In effect, he has not changed his stripes.
>>
>>No substance or substantive evidence? You are not seeing the sames things I am.
>>
>>>A major contention of this argument is should we take aggressive action before we are touched by Saddam in one way or another? The rules of conduct have changed and it is difficult to absorb and accept all of this without questions and concern.
>>
>>Yes, we should take action. If I remember correctly, we tried to bomb Bin Laden during the Clinton administration. Had we taken him and the top level of Al Quida. we may have averted September 11th. I am not criticizing the Clinton administration, but let's learn from our mistakes.
