How is this better than the so called imperialist power now, which has relaunched the Iraqi dinar, set up public companies, and the first Iraqi stock exchange,as well as investors from many countries to help build the new infrasttructure. You call this American imperialism? Alot of the investors are from England, Europe, the Middle East.

The United Nations imposed 13 years of sanctions on Iraq, for it’s invasion of Kuwait, and considered several times how to remove Saddam Hussein from power, as a condition of restoring trade.

You call this freedom of movement by China and Latin America, etc…? China and Latin America supported any sanctions that were imposed on Saddam. The entire international community did. If anything we wanted them to revert to sustenance living, not enjoy the rewards of participating in capitalism and selling oil for goods, until we could replace Saddam.
That’s why oil for food was introduced.

In less than one hour, a nuclear warhead could be launched from a country who can afford to manufacture, buy and launch one, and we can’t detect them on our radars. These things go 10,000 miles an hour now, and hit their targets.

You wanted Saddam to have money so he could buy one, or enrich uranium?

I do not see how Hamas has benefited from Iraq. Palestine was given the Gaza Strip and parts of the West Bank as part of the PEACE process, for a roadmap to peace, which restores a greater balance of power, and two state solution potential for Palestine and Israel, or at least provides land.
Hamas took the peace offering and sincerity of the international community in returning land, and
have their own government independent of the Palestinian Authority which they tried to overthrow, and now the west and everyone arms Fatah, fueling even less chance of people dying sad deaths in Palestine, from infighting as much as from Israel.

You call this benefiting from Iraq?

This is a ridiculous description of events.

The ceasefire of the Mahdi Army and Sadr was the biggest display of negotiating skills on behalf of the two warring parties of the new government, coalition and us forces,multinational forces and the mahdi army who is still under ceasefire, and progress is hopefully being made to benefit both parties equally, as negotiations demand this.
