my lack of world travel only shows that i am not rich and that i haven't come across the opportunity to travel. it has nothing to do with my ability to read about and comprehend what is going on in the world. using it as a basis for being an expert on the world woudl go further to show that you are narrow minded and don't believe that anyone can thik for themselves.
i certainly do remember the gulf war. i can tell you for a fact that when it started i was at a shooting range in flemington(Hunterdon Rifle and Pistol Club, Junior Club Weekly Meet). it was a normal night and i was 15 years old, at least it was normal until i mom came to pick me up and told my brother and i that we were at war. with a cousin on the ground and older friends enlisted, it was hardly a comfortable feeling and definately not one i will ever forget.
also, all of the elements of WMD's were found in Iraq by the UN inspection teams in Iraq. they found things even after Iraq went through every possible tactic to stall and delay inspections too. do you think they were workin on baking a cake and jsut happened to stumble across this stuff? maybe, or maybe they were trying to assemble a nuclear warhead and delivery system.
i do not understand why you are pointing at me for this. am i above the law? no, never said that i was. i also was never in the military and never acted as a military adviser to a president. so it doesn't look like i am the one to hold accountable for that.
information about radioactive tipped weapons has been out since long before the first gulf war. some sources say that it is enough to kill millions, others say that the area that it is spread out over and the conditions under which it is used make it harmless. you can find information from either side of that argument if you care to look around a little.
i don't agree with the use of any nuclear based weapon personally. i know what it does in large part though, how it effects the enviroment, how it effects birth rates, how it effects mental and physical development in children, how it effects life expectancy, and what it can do to the human body. why would i know that? cause i went to college and had to write a paper on it for a chemistry class.
