what a bomb!

Just some quotes to ponder , who do you think said them?
"When the eagles are silent, the parrots begin to jabber."
"The Americans will always do the right thing... after they've exhausted all the alternatives."
"One ought never to turn one's back on a threatened danger and try to run away from it. If you do that, you will double the danger. But if you meet it promptly and without flinching, you will reduce the danger by half. Never run away from anything. Never!"
"You have enemies? Good. That means you've stood up for something, sometime in your life."
We have before us an ordeal of the most grievous kind. You ask, what is our policy? I say it is to wage war by land, sea and air--war with all our might and with all the strength God has given us--and to wage war against a monstrous tyranny never surpassed in the dark and lamentable catalogue of human crime. That is our policy."
"If you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not too costly, you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance for survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves."
Could quite easily be about the current scenario today?
Well they were by no other then Winston Churchill and to me seem to ring true today!
Just imagine how many more Jews would of been exterminated in WW2 if we had left Hitler go unchecked? I'm fed up with listening to the bleeding hearts and hand-wringers about how wrong this war will be, so what do you want to do? give Saddam another 12 years to kill god knows how many more of his people? I firmly believe that more innocent people will be alive after the possible war then if we carry on the way it has been. Yes there are going to be innocent people and our troops killed in the conflict but sadly that is the sacrifice that has to be made. Someone come up with the idea to get rid of Saddam and his evil regime right here right now, not months and years of trying this or that without having to resort to military means then lets hear them! Its been 12 years so far and still he is power.To all those who don't want the war, well if you succeeded in doing so, I hope the blood on your hands that comes with Saddam still torturing his own people doesn't prick your conscience too much. Nobody likes war, nobody wants war , sometimes its the only way to free an oppressed people.
Sorry had to get that off my chest!
