#3 #3 and #7 are hard to ask with a straight face aren't they. If he had and used them before (established at 3) and we don't know what he did with the ones we know he had not used yet (established by Hans Brix), we must assume he still has them and will use them again..no?

#7 The Iranians should show a little respect to the country that helped Saddam kill a couple of million Iranians during the 80-88 war. We might just be back there to finish the job in a few months/years. They should think about the future, I don't want us to play the nice guy, I'm happy enough to take credit where credit is due.

Kidnap our consular staff, lose a couple of million to our beast in Baghdad. Hell, we can always find another monster.

#12 #6) Why does the US administration support the Mujahedin Khalq Organization (MKO) despite the fact that the group has officially and openly accepted the responsibility for numerous deadly bombings and massacres in Iran and Iraq? Why does the US refuse to allow Iran 's current government to act against the MKO's main base in Iraq?

OK I'll take the bait, part of it anyway....

HUH? WTF? Did some A$$atolla fail to get the memo!

/heh, including me! es posible.

#7) - Was the US invasion of Iraq based on international consensus and did international institutions support it? What was the real purpose behind the invasion which has claimed hundreds of thousands of Iraqi lives? Where are the weapons of mass destruction that the US claimed were being stockpiled in Iraq?

(We did it for all the Kicks, For the Fun of it.)
