Bastage:
Unlike the far larger number of Iraqis who disagreed with Saddam.
They would have just been tortured and put to death.

Alternatively. It's far more likely that since the invasion his wife could have been murdered by fellow Muslims. His brother could have been arrested innocently and sexually molested by fellow Muslims. His in-laws could have been killed/assaulted by those fellow Muslims.

You use of the bolded is open to debate but we dont need to debate that. You should find out how many Iraqis were killed in all of saddam's years as leader and how many Iraqis were killed in the period of Bush's invasion. I dont think Saddam directly destroyed nearly as many lives as Bush has destroyed with his drugged american soldiers.

Perhaps Saddam did well in keeping the extremists under rein while he was there and Bush's hatred caused him to spread all ill-news about saddam without ackowledging the good job Saddam did by controlling and keeping the islamists in check.

If bumbling Bush did not invade Iraq, perhaps the man's relative will still live in a safer environment, although ruled by a dictator.

i'd rather be ruled by a dictator and have my family alive than have a lunatic invade claim to want to give me freedom and wiping out my family in the process.

Bastage:
If he was courageous, he would have thrown his shoes at Saddam when he was in power.
He didn't. That makes him either a coward, a hypocrite or a fan of Saddam. Certainly not someone who is "courageous".

he doesn't have to be a saddam fan to feel so much contempt for Bush. his wife could have been murdered by bombing drugged american soldiers. his brother could have been arrested innocently and sexually molested by drugged american soldiers. his in-laws could have been killed/assaulted by those drugged, hippie american soldiers.
during saddam, he probably could go to the market and buy things without fear of being killed by a suicide bomber - he cant do that now. During saddam's time, he probably could recieve medication in hospitals and there was probably electricity to run medical equipment.

besides, it's not fun seeing foreigners acting like Lords in your own country when you are suffering- you can ask poor Nigerians in Lagos what they feel about Lebanese nationals in lagos. How do you expect Iraqis to feel when they see Americans living large in places that they can only dream about and they are suffering in their own country?

sorry I have not read every post here but. . .

To say that America decided to wreak havoc on millions of people because of the actions of a few misguided elements is probably worse than what those elements did. How do you justify attacking and killing hundreds of thousands of people because a few misguided isalamists killed some people?

Besides, Iraq had absolutely no link to the terrorist attacks on 9/11 so please dont try linking the attacks with Iraq.

George Bush deserves more than shoes. he deserves to be dragged through a street

granted, the man who did it could not have thrown shoes at Saddam when saddam was in government. But then, it still doesn't mean the man has no personal justification for it. Some people did not love any relative until drugged American soldiers arrived in iraq.  Do you think such people are going to rejoice when they see george bush? Do you think all those who were incacerated and whose lives were destroyed for nothing will be happy to see George Bush?

size zero is boring and unsexy

However excess fat is a big turn off for me.

Some flesh is always good. How can you hold a girl's thighs without flesh?

I no fit dey romance bony structure oh. Instead, make person go carry skeleton for lab dey romance

I don whip my first born in the past but I never had to do it again because I did it early on in his life and, since then, he realised that daddy is not one to be meesed about with. His younger one also realised that from watching him. I dont have any need to use any strong hand again because I only tell my children something once.

My kids dont jump around in the supermarket or store because as soon as i tell them to stay beside me, they do so. It makes my life more peaceful

fantacie:
lol ur not ugly, i guess ur just seeking for attention

Do you know how to look at pictures on nairaland? Go and check her pic out

This is a very serious problem o.

We need to act before things completely fall apart. I have actually seen some graduates and I wondered how they ever passed JAMB. People who would never have smelt university in my days go around waving degrees these days.

I am really afraid for Nigeria oooooooooooooooooo

I'm glad she has finally admitted her ugliness.

You need to learn to behave well as an ugly girl in order to get good men who appreciate inner qualities in a woman.

Some people are considered physically ugly but they are well behaved with good manners and they will still get loved because their manners pave the way for them to be loved. Their beauty is the inner type.

texazzpete:
Apart from the fact that both Kobojunkie and myself have vastly differing writing styles, there's the very real obstacle that i'm based in Port Harcourt while Kobo is in the US.

Naturally you're too stupid to spot such obvious differences.

I've never said there was 'nothing good in Nigeria'. And being eager to frown on flaws in our makeup is an attempt tio find the faults and fix them. There is far more damage done to Nigeria's cause by you people who claim there's nothing wrong, than by those always criticizing.

Seeing as you're not only self hating and daft but also always abusive, I chose to ignore that abuse. Otherwise, I'll send you home to your family.

Tell me

1. where you have ever said or seen anything good about Nigeria.
2. where you have not abused anyone just because you want to disagree with their opinion.

bye bye

Is kobojunkie a Nigerian?

I see a person who would rather be anything else but Nigerian and who is willing to see any good in Nigeria even if the good stares him in the face. He seems to be the same person as texazpete.

If you find Nigeria and Nigerians so disgusting, please move on to American forums where you can be happier.

bye bye

Thankfully we dont watch CNN or any American station for that matter in our family. We prefer to watch BBC news. Why did CNN not talk about oil being a curse several years ago when the oil was funding lots of things in America? Now that there is a disruption to the whole system and American oil companies dont find Nigeria as attractive as it used to be, CNN's eyes have opened to see the curse of oil.

Allow me rest jare.

Promiscuity dey Britain no be small.
If you leave London and Birmingham and mix more with oyibo, you go sabi say these britico people dey sexually horrible. Married dey yansh colleagues for work. Thats why young men love work nights out on Britain. If you play your game right, you'll definitely end up with some colleague for the night.

I think it obtains in white America as well. . . I have experienced it twice in America

wavemasta:
And that, my friend is why you exchange pictures! I wouldnt waste time blindly dating a chick, hoping shes orobo, when shes actually

segzi cres:
if i was a woman i would probably be sleeping with anybody that cares to Bleep. i wonder what you guys think?

Are you thinking that way because you cant get any?

Perhaps if women start dishing it out thoughtlessly, you'll be able to get some

I'm sure many of those foreign women wont mind you after a few drinks, have u tried them?

ojubi:
bring all nigerian leaders together in one house, past and pressent then bomb the house let start all over again. i bet u this country will be good.

do you see many decent Nigerians in public?
everyone who gets to public position only thinks of stealing.

Perhaps we should bring all Nigerians into the house to be bombed
