I totally agree with rb. Canada has always been a peace keeping country and for us to follow George Bush in a war with Iraq is totally unethical.
George Bush keeps on saying that Saddam Husein should disaram and has weapons of mass destruction. What do you call 200,000 troops with tanks and bombers? Tinker toys.

George Bush is a god damn hyprocrite and Canada should not follow in his footsteps.

Bush should know where Saddams weapons of mass destruction are. He sold them to him during the Iran-Iraq war and his scientists showed Iraq how to make biological weapons.

As for a regime change. It should be George Bush who goes.

One thing which is important to note, peace keeping is useless when there is no enforcment with use of force. Please take a look at the Rwanda and Srebrenica massacred. Canada should continue its peace keeping role, but only when this role is clear, and when there is actually a chance of success.

I do not agree at all with Bush's stance, and i agree with you, but you should review your definition of weapons of mass destruction... To be saying regular troops as well as biological weapons are both weapons of mass destruction is a little bit wrong.
