China wins the Iraq war

Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

China wins the Iraq war

Unread post by neoplacebo »

Saw a John Stewart peice today in which he declares China to be the winner of the Iraq war. It's because China is the top buyer of Iraqi oil. He went on to point out that the war protesters who carried the "No Blood For Oil" signs had the word "blood" in the wrong place.....should have been "No Oil For Blood." Meanwhile, Iraq continues to disintegrate at good speed.

Well at least Bush was able to kill the guy who tried to kill his deddy. So what if 300,000 other people died in the process.
Wing nuts. Not just for breakfast anymore.

bbbut they had WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION and were targeting the U.S. with nuclear and biological weapons.


Seriously, anyone that didn't participate in the Iraq war was a winner. Just look at our economy. (Oh wait, that's Obama fault.) :roll: It had nothing to do with waging wars and cutting taxes. The war would "pay for itself". :roll:

We did get a break when the Iraqis wouldn't agree to giving immunity to U.S. troops.
If they had, we might still be there, though in much reduced numbers, so Obama gets
half credit.

That's more than likely correct.

Yes, that's right. I had forgotten that Bush was the one who did negotiate the
deadline. Good job, Dumbya. I mean it man. I hope we're learning that we can't
fix every problem in the world, especially with military force.

And our Fifth Fleet and Air Force are on guard to make sure China gets that oil safely back to China.
