Greenpeace does a lot of good, but they are still guilty of trying to shock people by over emphasizing threats. Is this the only source you've seen for information on this town?

AAAH! Okay that is bad...

"Iraqi troops guarding the site fled at the start of the war, leaving looters free to steal uranium storage barrels, which locals later used as drinking water containers."

Iraqi water = Mexican water?

I say let the Iraqis poison themselves. If they're too stupid to keep a Ba'ath party member like Saddam from taking control, let their citizenry be tortured and killed by a fascist regime, and demand we, a nation who has taken nothing from them, to come in and help as though we owe them, then they deserve to die.

Those who did not evacuate to Lebannon before the war are not innocent. They intended to stay and fight a guerrilla war, and to date they are succeeding by slowly taking out our troops. We should just ditch the U.N., kick them out of New York, and conquer the Middle East, spare Israel.

I call it natural selection, and I support it 100%.
