  Saying no would look like treason.
  It's the Hussein hunting season.
  Even if we have no reason,
  Bomb Iraq
  
  
  PEACE

  Xandria,

  I agree. Bombing Iraq at this time makes no sense to me at all. I suspect the real reason for wanting to bomb Iraq is different from the one told the public. I would not be surprised if it is related to the control of oil and oil prices. This would not be the first time the public was fooled by the President into doing things that made the Bush oil empire richer.

  The U.S. could have easily killed Saddam Hussein during the Gulf War, and that would have made sense. My Muslim friends tell me that Saddam Hussein was not removed after the Gulf War because the U.S. needed someone strong enough to control Iraq's surrounding Middle Eastern nations, but someone whom the U.S. could control. If this latest drum-beating is not about oil, it is about controlling the Middle East.

  BTW, you are a hell of a song writer. You should publish that one. I wonder what the public's reaction would be if you did.
