7. Q: What percent of US military spending would ensure the essentials of life to everyone in the world, according the UN?
A: 10% (that's about$40 billion, the amount of funding initially requested to fund the US retaliatory attack on Afghanistan). |
40 Billion na d all the world's problems are solved.... right...
We can't even rebuild Iraq for 40 billion..

A: No, the materials and technology were supplied by the US government, along with Britain and private corporations. |
Gee, awfully convenient to forget Iraq's #1 Chem/bio supplier, Germany. And Iraq's #1 nuclear supplier France, and Iraq's #1 delivery vehicle (for WMD) supplier, Russia...
| quote: | 13. Q: How many western countries condemned this action at the time?
A:0 |
I guess the "Prevention of Genocide Act of 1988" that was unanimously passed when we found out about Halabja doesn't count...

Great, only WMD [oops EDIT: DU] can't be shown to cause increased cancer rates. In fact, the most likely reason why Iraqis had increased cancer rates are from Saddam using his chem weapons in the Shiite areas of Iraq...
| quote: | 22. Q: Is there any proof that Iraq plans to use its weapons for anything other than deterrence and self defence?
A: No |
You mean besides the two prior wars of aggression?

Yeah, it's criminal that UN oficials, as well as several European officials greased their palms with oil-for-food money. Every single death rests on their shoulders if these allegations are true.
