The blunt truth, is that this pending war is all about oil. No matter where you go, left or right of the argument, it all ends up going back to one place.
Saddam, controller of the second largest oil reserve on the planet, converted his oil transaction currency standard to the Euro in Nov. 2000. This will lower the US dollar against the Euro and this will allow a lot more control over OPEC to the Europeans. At the moment there are no Europeans in OPEC as members.
This is about money, what you need to do, is research before making outrageous sweeping comments about obvious facts you have no right churning. The idea that Saddam would even be able to get hundreds of millions of people in every major capital city in the world to march, is ludicrous.
The people are marching because they know, something is wrong here, something about these wars, is fucked up. There has never been anything positive about war. The connection between Osama Bin Laden and Saddam Hussein is so far that it's a stretch of the truth at best.
You're forgetting that the US government funded Saddam to do what he has done in his country against Iran, which ultimately put him in the position he is in. You forget that the US funded the Afghans against the impending doom the Russians which ultimately put the Taliban in control over there.
You know what the worst part of this is? that if this is about terror and if it's about paying back the people responsible for things like the WTC attack and preventing it from happening again, how can killing US soldiers and ruining their families in years to come, be positive? how can you weigh these 110,000 + soldiers in the balance like that?
You already pay the lowest fuel prices in the world, and yet saving another penny on the dollar is so important. You'd think that a country with an economic stand point that is nine times greater than it's nearest rival, would have more sense than to let one man control the destiny for a whole world.
