DaHappa, please, I know you and many others would LOVE to pick this article apart but DON'T have the time...I ask you or any other member to please argue the facts.
Someone, please prove to me that Ramsey Clark, a former
U.S. Attorney General in the administration of Lyndon Johnson. Who is the convener of the Commission of Inquiry and a human rights lawyer of world-wide respect is wrong...Anyone???
I, and am sure many others await your enlightenment!

Isn't all media biased one way or the other?
It's not worth arguing what's going on. The fact is, we're at war. It will be quick and we will win. We will lose some of our boys over there. Then again, we lost 3000 a few years ago in New York. Anyone think saddam is innocent in helping Al-Queda?

Marines looking like fools huh? The only fool is the one sitting on the bar stool instead of volunteering your services to your country. I'd rather you just said thank you and went on your way. Innocent human beings loosing there lives, what channel were you watching? I am willing to bet the ammount of innocent civilians if any that are killed during this war will be far fewer than the people dying under Sadam's power right now.
What you think CNN is going to televise the civillians loosing their lives. I for one believe that i have never heard a 'compelling' reason for war.
Oh and volunteering my services to my country.... you should check my profile. I was offered a scholarship by the US Army in return for my service as a physician upon graduation, unfortunately i have some medical conditions that would prevent me from participating. Don't question my patriotism.
I only asked for respect from people as we cannot control the lives that are lost in any war. Standing up and cheering in public when news comes of an attack is a sick sick thing. I am all for our troops and support them one hundred percent. Show a little respect for the loss of human life... Iraqi or American
Your weighing of the loss of life from our own forces and that of Saddam smacks of ignorance and arrogance.

If it comes time that the US needs more troops and asks for volunteers, I'll be first in line. This war is going to be like fighting a 5 year old with a wiffle bat. We're not going to intentially kill innocent people, but freedom has it's costs.
