    ... but of course, they are "ours" and used by "us". Ironic isn't it that such a fuss was made about Saddam possible having / using them and how terrible that would be. Seems ok for us to use chemical weapons though.

    Such sickening hypocrisy.

    Oddly enough much of the stockpiled WMD that Saddam stashed and WILL someday be found will show to be US made as well since at one time he was considered a friendly.

    Personally, and I know it will not be a popular opinion....the problem I have is nerve agents...used on his own people and at one time available for him to use on others. A little white phosphorus between friends and enemies to shed a little light on the fight or motivate hostiles to leave their positions of cover..not so much of a problem personally.

    Just my opinion - not about to change it so I don't intent to get involved in a debate on the topic.

    Hey, I'm sure the thousands horribly killed or mutiliated by US chemicals will understand completely and sypathise with your position. Serves 'em right for being foreign and having the cheek to live in their own country. Those bastards deserve all they get.

    I didn't see that in the article? Could you prove that, please?

    How is this connected to JWs?

    erm, did you not learn anything from Vietnam? Apparently not ...

    Because I feel strongly about it and I also used to be a JW. There's a connection for you.

    How about that it proves that America is the "King of the North" according to WTS interpretation of the bible ...

    Thank you for the "proof" and "connection." (Some habits are, evidently, hard to let go....as there was no proof offered or real connection given ...kinda' like at the KH.)

    Now tell me something I can use (instead of the very tired drivel above) how does one insert a previous poster's comments in the box?

    Sadly, JWism isn't the only place of double standards.... The world and it's governments and militaries are full of such standards.

    Gunpowder is a chemical, too. Nobody seems to have a problem with that tho'...

    Oh, yeah. I forgot...gunpowder doesn't kill people...bullets kill people.

    Dead is dead, right ?

    Trace, a word to the wise: you might want to be careful what you say to the board administrator. To put text in quote boxes copy and paste it from the original post or the list of posts underneath the posting box, highlight it like you're going to copy it again, and hit the little quote balloon located to the right of the smiley emoticon above and between italics and underline ( I U ). I'll demonstrate.

    Well, that's not exactly a very good argument.

    KINGS

    IN DANIEL 11:20-26

    The King of the North

    Daniel 11:20 Augustus

    Daniel 11:21-24 Tiberius

    Daniel 11:25, 26 Aurelian. The foretold breakdown of the Roman Empire leads to the formation of The Germanic Empire

    The King of the South

    Daniel 11:25, 26 Queen Zenobia. Britain, followed by the Anglo-American Empire World Power

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (red mine, for clarity to indicate that the WTS teaches the current and last king of the SOUTH is Britain/America)

    Or, put more simply.......

    So who is the king of the north now? Is he to be identified with one of the countries that were part of the old Soviet Union? Or is he changing identity completely, as he has a number of times before? We cannot say.
