> Helen Thomas: Cut our losses in Iraq and get out

29 July 2005, 00:43

Terrorists? How many people have the French Liberated? The Iraqi elections last year prove that idiot comments like this are well served by people that don’t know jack about the situation, and yet refuse to become inolved the global war on terror because of the pansies you. It’s sad the French don’t have the balls to stand up to the terrorists.

Let’s take a look at the record:
•The foreign and defense policies of Ronald Reagan resulted in the dissolution of the Soviet Union and the freeing of approximately 122 million people in Eastern Europe.

• The state of Israel would cease to exist if not for American protection, and about 5.5 million Jews would be in grave danger.

• Nearly 23 million Taiwanese would be denied freedom if not for American protection. More than 48 million South Koreans would be living under a dictatorship if not for American protection. USA action led to the removal of the Serbian dictator Milosevic, who was responsible for the murders of hundreds of thousands of people in the Balkans.

• The USA and Britain removed the Iraqi dictator Hussein, who was responsible for the murders of hundreds of thousands of people in the Middle East. And we have also removed the terrorist Taliban government in Afghanistan.

• America is sending $15 billion to Africa to help victims of AIDS. We were unable to find out how much France contributes, if anything.

• American action in Central America, Grenada, and Haiti has kept millions of people out of totalitarian regimes. Of course, all of this has cost every American taxpayer big. And thousands of American servicepeople have lost their lives protecting people overseas.

So tell me. What the hell has your country done? What good do your cowardly blatenly communist remarks make? Stop being part of the damn problem, and be part of the damn solution.

It’s clear you speak on behalf of the worlds morons that just don’t get it. It’s sad. Really sad... Comparing the US military to a bunch of thugs is irresponsible and studip.

BTW, if it were up to you, Saddam would still be supplying your country with illegal oil and he would still be ignoring the sanctions placed on him by the UN. Oh, and killing his own people. Get a clue.
