I am a major history buff and to go into detail about the 80`s Including  how, why, when, where ,would be to long of a post.  But if you would like I could email you the details including sources.
 Unfortunately British news is based on how they feel at the time and not facts..

  Now look at all the NEW equipment That Iraq has(less then 20yr`s old) and who there from.  

::Russian::Chinese::German::French::

Now who are the main Countries against the War??
 
  Test will be due on Monday..

One little thing you forgot there in your logic

The french, germans and russians where all in support for the UN inspections, now if France where in fact objecting to teh war to stop people from finding out that the weapons saddam might have where french supplied (im in no way sticking up for teh french, i know perfectly well that they and many other countries which also include teh USA have companies that supplie and build arms and sell them to who ever pays them the dosh)... Why were the the french there fore behind the UN inspectors?... who would have found the weapons anyway if they where there????.. had they been given the time.

As for British media such as ITV and BBC1, its alot more open minded than the openly unashamedly biased CNN  and ABC, after watching teh last 4 days of international media coverage its amazing just how pathetic teh american news stations realy are. No wonder you still have people supporting the war in america when there sources of news are so damned biased.

my only beef is that my own country has quickly stoped the BBC live coverage and gone back to its usual TV schedual.

Europe isn\'t so scotch free (is that the right phrase?) from what I\'ve heard, Back in the late 1910s and early 1920s the bigger European countries were trying to get middle eastern lands.  They often promised lands to 2 people, or set waring arab factions against each other for their own benefit. Iraq had a few revoloutions due to British Treaties and ruling in the early-mid 20th century.  America wasn\'t really big into the middle east then.  I think that if Europe had a bit of foresight we MIGHT not be in this little mess.


EDIT: Whoops, forgot the Crusades too, I mean what better way to form a realtionship with an area than to kill its people for some land that was holy 1000 years ago?  What if the descendants of the mayans, or the aztecs, or the incas, or whoever controled Mexico City marched back into modern day Mexico City and tried to claim it for themselves because it was thier Holy Home Land ~500 years ago?

ITV is faily decent as far as the 5 w`s(who,what,why,when,where) go at least on there website that ive seen. not sure about the TV news

http://www.itv.com/news/

  As far as BBC goes it looks more like babble.  Lets keep the facts out and see how many protester`s we can put on the website or on telly.
How deep do I have to go to find the 5w`s

http://www.bbc.co.uk/london/


  Although I did find a post of an Iraqi born Brit that supported the fight against Sadam but I think its allready been burried..

  test: WHO does Iraq(Sadam) owe 61 BILLION dallors since 1993 WHAT  did they buy and WHY do they not support the war??

A Hint::Russia::China::Germany::France::
Test due on monday
