in the '80s? I guess they hated our freedoms then.

Oh, and if you didn't know, Osama Bin Laden's little Fatwa, said in 1998 that we would invade Iraq. I guess the dumb shits in the Bush administration didn't pay attention to the fact they have helped Osama Bin Laden with his propagandizing of the Muslim world.

And that Saddam fella, who Donald Rumsfeld calls a "brutal dictator", yeah this is Mr. Rumsfeld shaking hands with that brutal dictator, and I'll say that brutal dictator looks pretty appeased:

1. The Neocons like "creating reality"
by creating and building up their own enemies. They get more war profits that way.

Of course none of them ever see combat, that's left to the "fungible" Americans.
