Democracy can't be established by force.

Your Views:Democracy is a basic human right which if not given should be taken, by force if necessary. Those who oppose the intervention of an outside force act like a violent alcoholic's ignorant wife who upon intervention of an outsider asks him to leave as it's their domestic matter.

Your Views:The war is more than destroying the weapons. It is obvious why the British and US are doing this, they have done this before with other nations. India was attacked for its wealth, USSR was divided, now it is the turn of countries like Iraq. This is going to continue unless the world body and other countries stop this. Why don't countries like France and China use their veto power? Will they allow the same thing if Iraq attacks America? The war is just inhuman and show the greed the two countries have!

Your Views:Saddam should go as Musharaf should go. They are bad dictators. But US has no right to interfere directly into Iraq's internal politics, particularly without UN mandate.

Your Views:All of us agree that Saddam is a threat to the world. His removal/existence is the responsibility of Iraqi people. If they cant, the international community must intervene. I am sure Bush and his administrators would have thought quite a bit before attacking but my greatest surprise is the international community not supporting a call for removing him. War was sure to happen. Lets hope that peace will prevail. The biggest danger is the whole world would start turning against U.S.A. one country cannot rule the world. I am sure Saddams case will be that he will flee iraq and go somewhere and join osama to attack u.s.

Your Views:Yes,in this case only oil seems to be the real interest and not the valuable lives (read blood) of the Iraqis or the american combat forces that could face casualties. The very nation that propositioned (remember WW-2)the creation of a unified world body (the UN) seems to be undermining its own actions.Mr Bush, show us hard evidence to substantiate your deeds, like you have done so in the past.Just do that and you will stand to gain considerable explicit support.If there is truth in what you say, make it known to the world.No one will dare to not support you.Your efforts will only be reinforced.

Your Views:A democracy with force will not stand long. Oil is thicker than blood for America and the bush team. Saddam shold go to spare Iraq people from war and also see if US is true to its word of not ivading Iraq if Saddam is left. Once saddam leaves US wouldnt have any face to attack Iraq and would be cornered from all sides by the international community. Bush has no right to interfere in Iraqs affair, whether democracy is established or not in Iraq its the Iraq peoples problem. The situation is more dangerous because tomorrow its going to be some other country US is going the way that its the worlds only police. They have taken a wrong direction.

Your Views:Yes, it will be good if some settlement comes between the parties which will end in no war, Saddam's exile AND IMPORTANTLY Iraq remaining an independant country with full ownership of its oil and other wealth. But since US and allies are eyeing mainly at Iraq's oil and not Saddam or his WoMD(?) etc., they will not be ready for any such settlement that does not give them abolute control over Iraq and its oil. So let Saddam be there in Iraq and resist US from robbing Iraq easily. Maybe if the war prolongs beyond the expected duration of 15 days, some country like Russia may broker peace, bringing in some acceptable solution.

Your Views:In principle, no one other that the people of Iraq have the right to remove Saddam. If US claims to be a democracy, they are liars, because they have ignored the fundamental principle of democracy, a definition coined by their own leader (for the people, by the people and of the people). In attacking Iraq, the US and UK are once again trying hard to legitimize their colonial ambitions. Remember, the US are descendants of the Britishers and hence have the inherent genetic makeup of their colonial predecessors. One has to strongly hope that this does not lead to a Third World War as happened befire the Second World War when the member nations undermined the authority of the League of Nations.

Your Views:Dear Sir: With reference to the above, it is clear that the fight is between Bush sr through Bush jr with Saddam. After the 1991 war Bush lost the elections whereas Saddam continues in power. There is nothing else. By Saddam's going Iraq is not going become any better as no worthwhile alterntive is in hand. It may happen the same way as Diem in South Vietnam during the early 60's when he was toppled and killed with US help and things went to worse. With such ethnic distribution in Iraq's North, Central and South there will be utter chaos for sometime. Taking into account the way Saddam has destroyed the country it is better for him to go but is there an alternative in hand.

Your Views:WAR AGAINST ALL WARS why the rest of the world remain content with mere expression of protest. it is time to recall the simlar situations in the past how the 'west 'tried to threaten world peace and how the then leaders neutalised the situation and saved the world from desaster. 1. in suez canal crisis, when us, uk and france were about to wage war on egypt to illegally claim rights on suez canal, it was the then indian prim eminister j'lal nehru intervened and prevailed upon and averted a disaster. 2. in cuba crisis, it was the then ussr prime minister krushchev sent war ships to american coast and stopped us seige on cuba. 3. it was the trio of nehru, tito (of the then yougaslavia) and nasser of egypt who stood firmly against the imperial west and also stood guarantee to world peace. 4. it was indra gandi who also stood firmly against the usa and led the non aligned world against the greedy west. also put a country in the world map. now is there anybody wotrth their name and position to carry forward this great task of providing security to world community. unipolar world cannot guarentee world peace. only bipolar world with ' cold war climate can prolong the life of u.n.o. and guarantee world peace. it is secret of creation without 'duality' no balancing achieved. i urge the world powers, say france, china, russia and germany on behalf of u.n.o. to unleash threat to danger to washigton, n'york, las angels, london, spain portugal and avert war. what us / bush wanto to do is: is not a war against sadam or al qaida or terroroism. it is war to establish monopoly on oil wealth. it is war to cover failure of bush to stand against al qaida or to question pakistan who is giving shelter to bin laden and his al qaida movement and other terrorists but only to divert world attention. the leader who shouts 'god bless america' cannot act for world peace. let god punish america and save the world

Your Views:Bush is the biggest threat to peace today and the biggest terrorist himself.Who is he to control Iraq.If iraqis are not happy with Saddam, its their internal matter.Bush has all the rights in this world to use any force, any weapon (of civilian destruction) bypass UNSC and wage a war only because his father could not remove saddam from his position. Bush is only interested in getting control on oil fields.Hes nothing but a LUNATIC.He cannot see the millions around the world who are asking for peace.He has absolutely no regards for democracy, for UNSC and for Humanity.He needs to go to an asylum.Ask Bush to leave America and goto UK (Tony blairs house)in exile.He will do all the innocent civilians aound the wolrd a big favour.

Your Views:US & UK demand is ridiculous and most illogical . These people doesnt have any moral/legal rights to ask a ruler of a soverign country to step down and go in exile. will he do it if saddam ask him to do so. this war is purely for taking control of the oil resources available at iraq than disarming iraq. I think even UN is covetly supporting US in this issue. Its high time all right minded nations boycott US and even UN for failing to do its duty in preventing US from its attack against iraq. Innocent civilians of iraq suffer due to the hegemonistic attitude of US. Definitely this action of US is only going to breed more terrorists and terrorist attacks across the world. US should reap for its actions.

But there are not many Iraqis who can pull it off. The Americans are called to do this favour to the Iraqi people. I hope they do not forget the favour.

Your Views:A strong dictator and a determined heart is the only thing that should complement a country like Iraq and its people. Saddam SHOULD NOT be overthrown. He has proven himself to be a worthy leader of state. He keeps his people alive with hopes and is always by the side of his people and it is by no means the business of Americans to interfere in another country's defence property. Bush is an absolute menace to the humanity... He is man who lacks the dignity of a President. And above all he is below all when it comes to leadership.

Your Views:Yes, the Saddam should go. Just for the sake of so many innocent people of his country. If he is really concerned about the people of his country, his single sacrifice can save the life lot of people. Although it is not fair on US part to attack Iraq without any solid reason. The worst thing is war. All the political people of the world think only about themselves may it be Bush, Saddam or Osama. Nobody think about the pain human beings get during the war.

Your Views:Lets keep the oil angle apart, I feel the US has a genuine reason to be concerned about Saddam handing over something terrible to Osama's gang. Northern Iraq is today a haven for Islamic thugs of various groups incl the Al Qaeda, and the US has every right to save its ass from further erosion. India may not have had the guts to do something to Pakistan before it became a nuclear power but does not mean that the US needs to sit and watch when it CAN do something about it. Look at N Korea and Pak. They are totally out of reach today. The point I am getting to is that if you look beyond the oil angle there are many many genuine reasons to go in for a war. To quote Krishna in the Gita, the Lord says to Arjuna 'It is an illusion to think that our hands should remain clean and our souls unstained for the law of strife and destruction to die out from the world. On the contrary, abstention from strife and concomitant destruction may help one's moral being, but leaves the slayer of creatures unabolished.' France and Germany are against it due to high Muslim populations. Look at these figures France - 8% Germany - 25%! Russia - 30%! Hope what starts with Iraq ends with Pakistan!!!!

But Americans do not have a right to decide about his existence. It is the people that he is ruling that should be more worried about him as their leader. After all people should be given a fare chance to express their likes and dislikes

Your Views:Saddam and his sons have to give a fight till the last drop of their blood. Mr. Bush thinks that Mr. Kofi Annan is his Vice President and Mr. Blinx and his team are the peons of the White House. Whatever he is doing in Iraq is contrary to and against the world opinion. This is nothing but an international piracy. The word "rogue" state emanated most probably from the US. As a matter of fact, the US herself is proving by her deeds that she is the biggest rogue on this planet Earth.

I being a Hindu I support Saddam Hussain and request all the nations of the world and the muslims who are fighting nonsense proxywars to move to Bagdad and fight with americans ... Bush has violated the UN and he should be punished by the world and If I was the primeminister of India I will learn a lesson from the attack on the world that India is no safe on this earth so India need to grow as a super power... today Iraq is attacked tomorrow may be our turn so I call upon people who are corrupt and lazy in India to think of India and fight against the monopoly power of usa and defend the land and support Iraq,,, saddam I am with u ,,, i support u.

I am not aware of ground realities out there but I am sure about one thing that whatever Mr.Bush is doing is absolutely wrong. He is trying to be the king of this world. What makes him think that way. He is not ready to listen to UN. Today this is happening with Iraq, tomorrow it may happen to any other country. And what i feel is this war will increase feeling of hatred by a substantial amount which is not going to help this world to its final motive, peace. In the end i just wanna say, US will face its consequences sooner or later.

Your Views:Should Saddam Go? It is impertinent trying to answer this one when you are not an Iraqi. Saddam did act foolishly 12 years ago but didn't or couldn't stick to his misadventure. I have not seen any reports of evidence of Iraq having WMD or they having threatened any country - Kuwait or KSA or even USA - unprovoked. Iraq is not Afghanistan and don't try to make it one. Let every one realise the innocent lives that will perish under the name of protecting them. Also, with all the technology, US is known for ite friendly fires damaging their own allies. No, I don't think Saddam can go now under the present circumstances. He will be a hero when he dies and US and their allies shall expect to live under fear of retalliation by Saddam's followers for ever. Let sanity prevail.

Oil, madness of Bush and eggheadness of Saddam, created this hardship for the people of Iraq and world. Shame on us all for failing to prevent this.

Its a pity that an Opportunist like the US is in the game! But Kuwait had no other choice but to seek their help...and the fact remains...they came to their help when they most needed it!

Your Views:Yes, Saddam should go, but not by force like what US is doing. US is doing all this for their own economy and not for the world on a whole. US wants their own economy to grow, which would incidently grow, when they get the contracts of re-building Iraq. At the same time Saddam is also showing defiance and he should also be held accountable for human rights abuses and countless number of crimes created by him. But what US is doing is not correct, and without the support of UN no one can just go and attack a country. US has made the UN body redundant. If India would have done such a thing with our neighbour, we would have to face the world's ire. Democracy can't be established by force.

Yes!! personally I feel the UN cease to exist and India should go ahead with their war on Pakistan because when the US can defy the United Nations, why can't India defy the US or the non-existant UN, to protect their borders and prevent infiltration of terrorists. US went at war with Iraq because it was in their interest. They don't want India to go at war with Pakistan because it is not in their interest. In short, they want the whole world to move at their whims and Fancies. Hope the US war on Iraq ends all terrorism in this world, because all those responsible for terrorism in Pakistan, Afganistan and other countries will be now called "Freedom Fighters", because as per US, defeating Saddam Hussein is defeating Terrorism in this world, atleast that is what they are trying to tell the world.

But Robert Mugabe is no Saddam as he has no weapons of mass destruction like Saddam.Just FYI,the country with highest number of weapons of mass destruction is USA. what about them?? You cant touch them, they are so powerful. Well, so all talks of equality and just causes are restircted to non-super powers. Coming to resolution 1441. What does the USA has to say about resolution 242.It is more than 30 years since resolution 242 called on Israel to withdraw from the occupied territories.But Israel is pro-US so let them be. I have not spoken about UK as I feel their stance is of mere follower. I can say this now having stayed in London for past 7 months & seen them acting as a US echo. About the UN.US & UK are destroying what they had created.If Germany and allies would have won we would have been fed a different history and would have seen it from their pt of view & would have made sence.You see what are allowed to.

Why are they not targeting countries like N.Korea or Pakisthan who breed terriorists and are known to be possesing weapons of mass destruction. US is now talking about reconstruction of Iraq, and as we all know UK who is a puppet of US is also eyeing post war interests in that country, as both the US and the UK economy is going to benifit post war as most of the major contracts would be shared by these two countries. How do you think the US weapon manafacuturing and the aircraft manafacturing industries are going to perform if there is no war.These industries are funded by the state and thus they are directly affecting te economy if they do well which is only possible when there is a consumption of the arms and ammunition already produced. The US expects the UN to play an active role in the distrubution of food supplies at the outbreak of war, when the US themselves do not have the mandate of the UN to act upon IRAQ. It is so sad that in spite of world being against the US for waging a war we are mute spectators.

Your Views:There is no doubt that U.S is interested in oil more than Saddam's blood. Oil is one of the precious and most sought after products . The availability of oil with US is fast declining. With OPEC controlling most of the world oil prices US is afraid that oil is becoming dearer and it had to look for sources of supplies which is the control over middle east . Further US also understands that its powers will be threatened so do its allies like UK and Australia. This is another reason why France,Germany and China the other permanent members of the UN Security Council are not approving use of force against Iraq. US wants to dictate terms since it is the only superpower . The only country that can challenge its powers is China . But since there are mutual trade interests Chinese do not want to indulge in this situation. Bush has always had double standards in cases like terrorism one for its own country and other for international community. Here too why is he not attacking Pakistan which also is a non democratic country with neuclear weapons if his main fears are that they can be misused in a non democratic set up? Natures rules above all you reap what you sow & so shall it be for US.

And should impose sanction on them . no matter how powerful they are. Other wise they should disolve the UN as an organition. it should not have different set of rules or one country and some other for 3rd world country. If the US wants to disarm other countries then they should lead by example.1st disarm your self then talk of other countries. It is try to establish supramcy over the world by doing such deeds.The world should be aware of this as today it is Iraq THen it can be your country or even mine.

Even if he had weapons of mass destruction he was no harm to the US or UK and many other countries like Pakistan, India, Norht Korea, Japan, Taiwan, Israil have much more deadly and technically superior weapons so why just Iraq. And the way Bush is talking "Saddam and his sons should go", makes us feel that there is something personal between him and Saddam. And anyone who could take such a drastic step for his personal issues is not fit to hold such a responsible post as the President of the US. Bush and Blair are been reckless and unfair in doing so and there definately is some hidden agenda behind all this. Saddam should stay and should be supported. Otherwise, US will be like a bully and no other country will be able to say no to any demand put forward by the US.

El Baradi, Hans Blix etc. have categorically said that Iraq doesn't possess any WMD. The rest of world including Europe (minus Britain) have clearly opposed the war. Now there is no meaning for a body like UN or its resolutions when permanent members themselves bypass the body. Saddam, with almost all his weapons distroyed , can't do any harm to US or for any other country. And if it is terrorism then there is no proof that, he is supporting any terrorist group. Also there is enough proof that Pak is doing that. So if the war is against terrorism,(as claimed by Uncle Sam)then US should attack Pak, not Iraq.

Already there are signs that our politicians have bowed their heads in front of Lord Bush. The efforts of Gandhi, Nehru and Indira seem to be be going down the drain. Its not a matter of Saddam Hussein, but a matter of kiski dadagiri chalegi. It is another form of exhortion. If the world leaders can do this than what message goes to the common man. The rule of the jungle is going to prevail.

Your Views:I totally disagree to taking the extreme step of a war to get back at Saddam. This is a war for revenge which Pres.Bush is fighting on no reasonable basis. Ofcourse there is oil which he and his father before him are trying their best to lay hands on. What is most amazing is they go to war without a UN mandate, this only proves that UN has no powers and the USA is the most powerful country. Then there is also a civilian population which is effected to a large extent in this war - which the US and their allies have totally no regard for. The Iraqi people have suffered enough with the sancions for over 10 yrs.They surely deserve some respite. This war is something that we as a civilised?? world should be ashamed of.

Your Views:I donn think its necessary nor we r the right person to think about this. So it applies to even Bush also that he is not the right person to decide about if president of iraq should be or should leave, so it the people of iraq to decide about that. Such being a case. In this regards i strongly support Iraq stand on this issue and Saddam.

Your Views:sub : whether saddam has to go on exile i think it is not fair that saddam has leave the country for the sake of US and UK. in the blix report it has not been confirmed that iraq is holding weapons for mass distructions. the UN drama is over and the action has began and no body know the extract trivality of this war. the entire global economy will come down drastically and already every body is facing lot of problems after sept 11. we can pray only god to finish issue at the earliest. laxmi narayanan
