I think they're on equal terms, as the queen can shut the country down if she wanted to.
Ok, comparing George Bush's regime to the Nazi regime is a little over the top. Granted, the Bush administration started the Iraq war for unjust reasons, but Saddam's regime still needed to be overthrown. If you're going to compare anyone to the Nazis, it should be Saddam and his government. They were the ones killing innocent people by the thousands. =\
Saddam has being out of office in Iraq for over a year now, yet Bush is requesting MORE troops are sent in. There's also the amazing fact no other country is allowed nuclear defense missiles, like N.Korea for instance, they weren't any real threat, but they've being forced to shut down all their nuclear testing facilities under the threat of war with the USA.
Saddam and Bush are both control freaks, they both share attributes with Adolf Hitler.
I won't get involved in this too deeply, but going back to the initial invasion, I believe Bush began with good intentions, and alot of the mistakes that people will try to pin on him came from his administration.
But after a while, the news just gets really old...y'know, like, enough-is-enough; It feels like everyone here at this point accomplished what they had set themselfs up for, so why send more people in? There may be influences from Saddam, but the whole idea behind the invasion was to "pull a tyrant out from power," not to infultrate, destroy, and rebuild a country all together based on another single mans preference
Puffy? said:Here's something I bet some of you wouldn't expect from me, an apology, in my two months away I started to see the world from a better perspective, and realised just how mean I have being to some of you, I was an elitist and a bully, and for that I am truly sorry, I'm not asking for forgiveness, merely trying to build some bridges.
Hope y'all doing well, sorry again
Matt~
Britain's main reason was to remove Saddam from power, Blair constantly mentions it.
Oh, how long has this been up here? Huhu, honestly I don't think you've been an elitest, and probably more yip-yappy than a bully. Or, from my perspective that is. How thoughtful though, Drummershuff :3
Might have been his and Britain's main reason, but Bush and the US openly stated in the early stages of the war that their main reason was because Iraq was considered a threat (WMD). Of course, they're not going to be very vocal about that now, seeing as they didn't find any mass weapons.
I have no problem with Britain pulling their troops from Iraq because this wasn't really their war to start with. I don't really understand the logic in it though. If the main objective was getting Saddam and his regime out of power, that should go hand in hand with instating a new, solid government. Like I said earlier, just because Saddam himself is gone, doesn't mean his influence is gone. His supporters are just licking their chops at the idea of troops leaving, waiting for their chance to take over again.
Umm...that isn't Drummershuff. =X
What reason would -I- have? I don't have any regrets about how I've acted on this forum. Everything I've done has made me realise what I needed to change, and I've done so. I certainly would never make an apology of that sort.Then what other Matt is thar that would have a reason to say such? ;<

Kaku is talking about himself. It seems pretty obvious that his name is Matt, hmm?
And by saying thank you for the apology means that you thought it was needed in some sort of way... or so I see it.
I haven't even really noticed him actually being a member since...this month to be exactly. I don't even see him being the slightest bit elitist. Just a Brit who likes guns alot.
Hmm, if you haven't seem him around I guess that could be why you would question it. Although, it appears at the beginning of his signature it says "you wouldn't expect from me," so therefore one would assume the signature was talking about the member that had it in their signature.
It was pretty clear to me, but what do I know, right? XD
