The Iraq War was illegal

So , please can someone tell me the next step. Very obviously Bush and Blair are disgusting War Criminals, but who is going to arrest them. Do you want special scaffolds erected in a gymnasium after the inevitable convictions.

Incidentally, who creates International Law ? And who cares provided the supermarket shelves are stacked and there is petrol for your 4x4 SUV.

A load of hot air, all of it.

I fume at the government responses to this dreadful Iraq war:

'We are where we are... its all their fault... they must be defeated....we will not cut and run'

How do you solve any problem when there has been a catastrophic mistake. You admit your errors, you replace the guilty with others and you change your policies.

Even murderers in prison are never released on parole until they have seen the errors of their ways. This lot keep lying through their teeth!

Kwicky - So what should we do then? And what will happen in Iraq if we do what you say we should do?

Hmmm, i dont know why everyone keeps bringing this silly Iraq debate up. It is not an illegal war and George and Tony are doing a brilliant job. i dont want our forces to leave Iraq or afghanistan. I have a car and cant afford to pay a lot more for petrol. this will also impact on everyday items too as petrol is needed to transport them. I want to change my toothbrush every few weeks and use loads of toilet paper .
We are winning the war on terror and the do-gooders cant handle it...

Maybe some of you might think the war is 'legal' and want the troops to stay in Iraq (why not join them, instead of lounging about in armchairs?) but I'm sure if you asked the troops for their opinion, most of them would rather not stay there and through direct involvement they know that they can't win the war either. Mostly because its pointless (who are the bad guys, the Iraqis??) There was never a good enough reason for it to begin with, so as for "winning" the war (Sadam's already been caught), who are Bush/Blair trying to convince??

Jump79 - Just curious though. Should we get out immediately? What will happen to Iraq if we do that?

[Ctrak]

Iraq's probably ****** either way...if someone can suggest anything other than splitting it up that will actually work I'll be amazed.
