Sorry to hear of your grandmother's passing away Reverend. Hope all is well other wise.
When a 92 year old woman who hasn't recognised anybody for two years passes on, it's kind of like a weight being lifted. Other than that all is...interesting.
Your trying to play the victim now eh. Americans badmouthing you. C,mon , I maybe crazy but I'm not stupid.
Apparently you have blinded yourself to fact then. Kennedy and Diefenbaker, Pearson and LBJ, Nixon and Trudeau. They never got along. LBJ grabbed Pearson by the lapels. That's known as assault in legal circles.
Our major media figures don't go on TV or write in magazines that Washington is like Berlin in 1939, but major media personalities in the US have no trouble bashing us.
Oh, btw, Canada and the US had an excellent relationship for most of Chretien's time in power. The problems started when Bush became prez. That points to it being his fault that relations have suffered, not Canada's, not Chretien's.
Not playing at being the victim, just stating facts, little buddy.
How many lives have been lost in the 20 years or so that Saddam was there ?
It was the US that put him there and helped him solidify his power base. It was the US who protected him after he gassed the Kurds. US bombs killed a lot of Iraqis during Desert Storm. US depleted uranium has been killing them ever since. The sanctions the US insisted on killed many, many more.
When the UN oil for food was in place?
Oil for Food was largely successful at fulfilling its goals, providing the Iraqi people with the basics of life. Even the Bush administration does not try to deny that...60% of Iraqis were fed by that program every day. It was brought in because of those US-backed sanctions that were killing Iraqi civilians.
How many lives were lost in Rwanda ?
It was the US and France that prevented further intervention there.
You mean from DU munitions used by US forces?
Yeah sit and watch people die while throwing those beer bottles at Americans dying to rid of your Idol Saddam . Is the picture of those happy iraqis voting make you sick ?? You sick..........
Throwing beer bottles would be wrong, Canadian Observer...they are recyclable. Saying that Saddam is the idol of everybody here is a brutal bald-faced lie.
The US went into Iraq under false pretenses. They said, very clearly, that Saddam had WMD and presented a threat. Nobody believed them so they couldn't get a UN sanction. That makes the invasion illegal. The blood of up to 100,000 dead Iraqis is on George Bush's hands.
Iraqis voting would make me happy if the election wasn't just a sham designed to install a puppet government that will keep the illegal laws that Paul Bremer passed in place.
Have a nice day, little CO buddy. You obviously hate Canada and Canadians. You should move someplace where there aren't so many. I hear the US military is looking for a few mercenaries. Maybe you should sign up.
