The Real Reason why France, Russia, and China opposed the war in Iraq!

[1stdeadeye]

A congressional report is about to be released. It was not about right and wrong. It was all about the $$$!

Well what do you think?

Ownt.

wow what a shock. Well time to go to the store for some coffee. thats how little the article suprises me. Imagine that a government corruption, you need to find more shocking news than that to link about.

You ever hear of world war 1, or how about WW2. France always surrrenders when attacked how do you expect that country to go pro war? The country motto is practically "WE SURRENDER".
And Russia is just pissed off at the USA because it got ownt and owned itself in the cold war. Besides that these terriosts probably got most of there weapons from Russia.
When I see the name China I just laugh, China is going to take over the world someday, or atleast destroy it

These are all the worst countries to rely on, and history proves that. If you want and I'm bored enough I can prove the facts by supporting them from quoting history books I could probably find on the google search.

not really suprising. check into the iranian nuke program, you will find russia deep in that too. when we have to roll iran too, dont look for help from them.

the best way to end this whole mid-east situation is to have some iraqi insurgants kidnap a few israelis and behead them in iran. all we would have to do at that point is get the hell out of the way.

though i agree about isreal the funny thing is the arabs tel us to stop supporting isreal, and the only reason isreal doesnt take out the arabs is because they have to listen to us so we will keep giving them aid. the moment we stop helping them, theyr gunna start world war 3

[Konigballer]

the only reason Israel does NOT start another middle east war is because we ARE supporting them.

All of the military technology we supply them is for their defense, not offense. Israel knows that without our support, they would be screwed up a creek. If we abandoned Israel, an entire Arab coalition would probably mount up to destroy them if they knew they had nothing to fear from US reprisals or military aid. Thats why Israel is carefull to maintain our support, not so they can start a war against they're neighbors, but so they won't be destroyed in one.

Of course, should the day come when Israel does find itself alone and under attack from all it's neighbors, it will be a dark day for all involved. Israel is the only army in the middle east trained and supplied anywhere near western standards so they would take more than they're share of enemies before they fell. I'm shure they would rack up quite a kill ratio.

back in the days before the us was pumping billions into israels military they took on jordan, syria, and egypt at the same time and whipped their collective arses in less than 6 days. israel is not hell bent on the destruction of all arabs, cant say that vice versa, but they wouldnt need much help from us to do it if they wanted to.

Israel has received our monetary and military equipment/training support since 1949.

Uh, are you refering to the old Israel that was run into the sea?

But I don't think we were pumping in billions of dollars...

[Kevmaster]

Isreal would do just fine right now even if we didn't support them any further. They could handle matters without problems. The US is the only reason ISREAL hasn't started another war in the Middle East. Isreal has already threatened to take out Iranian nuclear facilities and DID take out Iraqi facilities. I don't doubt that if it were not for US restraint they would have struck against Iran.
