Mr B. Let it go.
Why is it on us to go to the Sudan? There has been conflict for how many years here? 20+ years? I have heard figures that push the toll of 2+ million deaths here. I remember in the mid 90's my own mother talking about the Sudan about Salvary and Christian persuction by the Karatorum gov. which funds and aids the Arab militia's perpetuating this conflict.Not only is it a largely religious conflict, it is an ethnic conflict.
Furthermore one thing I have learned about the UN as a whole it does not infringe on sovereignty... rightfully so. This is an internal conflict, even though it is most abhorrent.
Iraq is about oil... do yourself a favor and read the Wolfowitz doctrine, then come back to this thread and tell me how Iraq relates to oil. You'll learn something, Iraq is bigger then Bush, and it's beyond Clinton (who btw I'm not trying to put this on).
Tell me one reason, why is it on us?
Edit 1: Iraq violated 17 U.N. resolutions over the course of 12 years. : Violated Cease Fire accords with U.S. between 92'-02': Responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of state sanctioned killings: responsible for the genocide of Shiite's in the southern marsh lands and Kurds in the north by the thousands: Several acts of war vs. Kuwait, Bahrain, Israel, UAE: responsible for the deaths of nearly 1 million (give or take) Iran- Iraq War 82-88': Saddam largely responsible for the death of 1+million (conservative number) fellow Iraqi's in light of sanctions.
