Asshole Governments...

"Where are your weapons of mass destruction?"
"We don't have any."
"Well, prove it, because we can't find any."
"That's because we don't have any."
"Well why can't we find them then?"
"... You know, we really wish we did, we'd show them to you, right up close."
"Right, well, we're going to have to attack you then."

I'm sorry, but the US administration has the worst fucking excuse for going to war, ever. If Bush and the rest of his warmongering cronies had come out and said right away, "We want to depose Saddam Hussein, he's an evil tyrannt who tortures the citizens under his thumb yada yada yada," I may have felt differently. Probably not, as 1. war is the ugliest thing imaginable and 2. it's not our fucking problem. However, the current excuse of imagined banned weapons completely infuriates me.

Also the fact that the current US administration completely ignores world opinion, and the opinions of its own people, and does what ever it wants makes me embarrassed and ashamed to live here...

I've said this elsewhere, but I felt the need to say it here as well.
