Actually quite relevant when grasped in proper context. Quite relevant indeed. Its funny that dismiss outright any chance at all the war is what it is. Instead you seek conspiracy theaory after conspiracy theory to explain things away.
If the only thing you see is arrogance than your quite blind to the concept of hating war but still understanding the concept of being the best at it as possible. Blind to the concept of "If you want peace prepare for war", and disturbingly content to follow along with the popular opinion of those in power around the world.
Yeah us too, we debated away for 14 months before we took action, 14 months in which Iraq had plenty of time to comply with international law and let the UN inspectors in unfettered.
Well you'd be wrong again. I know you don't think Iraq was a threat to anyone, nor did it pose a danger to anyone, but we did. So we laid down a set of ground rules for Iraq to follow. As had been their pattern for 12 some odd years they agreed to these rules and then did everything they could to weasel out of them. Counting on being able to exploit the weakness inherant in the international community you seem to have so much faith in, to bale them out, as they had been doing for 12 years. (You know those bastions of morality in Russia and France) So when time ran out we acted despite the wrangling of these supposed allies (for their own benefit) and despite the fact that they had signed resolution 1441 into law a little over a yeaar before. That is why I said what I said.
The international community thinks what it's news sourses tell it to think. Don't tell me how their US biased. That's a crock of shiiiiiiite!! If they were so damn biased you would think like I do. Plain and simple. They are very anti-US biased and it is wuite disturbing how many people blindly follow such news sourses.

Its also funny how these people, who often say America is wrong to be friendly with numerous Dictators, turn around and suggest doing the exact same. Its really quite funny.Agreed!
Irrelevant point, but your arrogance amazes me.
I think that the point you are trying to make is that you think what the US is doing is right, and therefore it must continue on it's course, even though the US is generally opposed internationally.
Most countries have a process whereby the decisions their government makes are, to a greater or lesser extent, debated and thought out.
The only reason I can think of for your opinion that the US must export war, globalise slave-wage labour, and ignore international bodies like the UN, is arrogance.

Little kids don't seem to be the most rational thinkers, so your point appears non-existant.Which EXACTLY proves my point.

There appears to be no shortage of that in the Republican party.And their appears to be no shortage of arrogance and self-interested greed in the international community, its no wonder we get fed up and begin to say things as they are, deciding we are not getting anywhere by keeping the kid gloves on.
