I got this at the start of November - the UN isn't collecting signatures. Nice to see they changed
the e-mail address though, which was a unicwash.org address. See here for details:

Shame they haven't changed the first 165 names on the list though...

You can jump up and down and yell and scream about this all you want, Shaun, but come hell or high
water Duhbuya will invade Iraq. It's personal with him (Saddam took a pot shot at his daddy), and
too many cattle from the GOP (God's Own Party) are following along with the blinders on.

Right. Although I was highly dubious, since the media hadn't mentioned it, I still wanted to add my
name to that list. I just like the feeling of doing it, and would like to hope someone could make
positive use of such a list ',;~}

Aye - that's well as maybe, but it ain't gonna stop me saying how I feel about it at every given

I suppose they'd have to print it out first before throwing it in the trash?

Consider this as a good time to cancel those plans to ride with the Kurds on some great mountainous
singletrack in Northern Iraq.

A valid reason is a good start...

The US and the UK invading a country without a motive or support of the UN.

When Germany invaded Poland, and Iraq invaded Kuwait without provocation, many countries went to
defend them. Wonder who will come to the defence of Iraq if they're invaded without provocation...

If the US and the UK do invade, they'll be fighting their own terrorist war for years to come. And
they won't win.

You seem to be using the term "peace lover" as a pejorative.

Why is peace a bad thing?

Ah, yes - subtle demeaning commentary. Very effective logic skill.

Tell you what - how about showing SOME justification? Anything at all...

Desert Storm has not officially ended. There is a standing cease-fire, based upon Iraq's (Saddam's)
compliance with UN resolutions. He hasn't.

When Clinton bombs Iraq, it's justified. If Bush bombs Iraq, it's about oil and world domination.

[Gordon Bird]

Fair point. But two wrongs don't make a right. And anyway, the goalposts have totally moved since
9/11. Surely we (US & UK - I'm a Brit) should recognise that blowing the **** out of a load of
innocent Iraqis is not the solution to Bush's 'War on Terror' ********. He's an idiot, and so is the
poodle Blair trotting along in his shadow. The scariest thing is that people like this are able to
run our world... "Tristan" <[email protected]> wrote in message
