bad idea to make such gratuitously off-topic posts.

> WE GOT HIM

who is this "we" you are talking about?

that traitor Howard may have sold out Australia, the Australian people, and the
Australian Army by choosing to commit war crimes in this illegal war, but that
doesn't mean that I, or anyone else with a functioning brain and open eyes, has
to agree with or identify with it.

it was a crime when the war started, and it's still a crime today.

the capture of hussein means nothing.  he's irrelevant, and has been for over
six months.  the invasion of iraq made it possible for the real loonies to get
a foothold in the country.  the iraqi resistance aren't fighting for the return
of saddam hussein, there's dozens of different groups all with different and
even conflicting agendas.  the only thing they have in common is a desire to
kill the invading americans.

convenient timing, though.  the trial (if he lives that long) should be just in
time for the US election next year.


the irony is that the worst thing that the americans could do now would be to
pull out - which they will want to do more and more as the bodycount increases.
if they do that then there'll be a bloodbath, followed by a brutal theocracry
like in Iran.

what's happened in iraq since the war was obvious, all of it was predicted
before the war started - but lunatic ideologues like Bush, Blair, and Howard
refused to listen to reason.  they were going to have a war no matter what.
malevolent fools.
