Cheney '94: Invading Baghdad Would Create Quagmire C-SPAN

Back

In this interview from April 15th, 1994 Dick Cheney reveals the reasons why invading Baghdad and toppling Saddam Hussein's regime wouldn't be a great idea. He also stipulates that "not very many" American soldiers' lives were worth losing to take out Saddam during the Gulf War.

This answer was a precise reflection of the advise that came out of the CFR during the first gulf war. Guess who belongs to the CFR? Hmmmm ... Fuck you Dick.

Wow, what an insightful answer. This guy sounds smart. I bet he's just furious about this whole Iraq war debacle!

Kathleen Christison wrote about this in 2002 in an article entitled "A Rose by Another Name
The Bush Administrations Dual Loyalties" -- we placed it on our If Americans Knew website. This is a must-read. It was never a "war for oil it was always a war for Israel. And now the same groups are pushing for us to attack Iran...

I love Obama's CABINET member picks so far. When BUSH was asked to pick his CABINET, he couldn't decide between Maple, Oak or Pine. Dumb-shit! ~Joe Voter

Obama ties with Ayers - 0 KILLED.
Bush ties w/Iraq (after lies) - 4200+ KILLED.

pmango...what the hell are you talking about? The entire world watched the Bush cronies sell the WMD story to the United Nations and the world...it's the REASON we invaded. None found. All their backpedaling and changing of agenda didn't change the fact...there were NO WMD's in Iraq when we invaded, and there haven't been for years. Let's not forget that they NEVER would have had them, had the U.S. not SUPPLIED them in the first place.

ninetygnyc:9-11 happened does that answer your question? Whether Saddam played a part in 9-11 or not is not the debate...the debate is after a 9-11, is it wise to let Saddam stay in power since he has funded terrorists before, he was known to work with terrorists, and he used WMD on his own people.

pmango1000. "9-11 happened does that answer your question" i do realize 9-11 happened, i went to pace university, i was one block away when the towers fell. saddam using wmd's against the kurds,,,ok, are you willing to die because of that as an american, cause im not. and what is your definition of a terrorist? what terrorist did saddam fund? its been proven that saddam couldnt stand al qaeda.

don't argue with pmango, he's a dumbfuck. he can't comprehend logically stuff right before his eyes.

Saddam and Bin Laden are/were natural enemies. Each was a threat to the other, and each would have killed the other given the chance.
