I am whited skinned and I am not an elitist. Such statements should not be made. If sylvester is as you say he is, it is not because of the color of his skin, it is because of who he is inside. The human preoccupation with trivial matters is what causes 99% of conflict. Skin color, religion, etc. are irrelevant in politics. Until we all move beyond such things, we will never know peace. BTW- The video of the Kurds that were gassed is the one thing that caused me the most pain. I would have killed Sadaam myself if I was able. Those people didn't deserve that and it is amazing to me that he held such little regard for those children.

You are a liar and I'm accusing you as such. Those numbers are 100% false. The fact is that most of dying took place during the Iran-Iraq war. The fact is that the Kurds at the time were supporting the Iranians and fighting against Iraq. The fact is that your right wing administration you support with Reagan, Bush and Rumsfeld being at the lead pack were the ones that supplied the chemical and biological weapons to do the killing including precise locations. The fact is that the actual criminals are sitting right here in this country in the white house. And the fact is that your right wing fascists are responsible for more that 1.2 million Iraqi children DEAD. So answer these criminal right wing facts and get your head from your... the sand.

"Saddam invaded Iran with the help of America, who saw him as a useful surrogate against Ayatollah Khomini. Reagan administration backed Saddam in his war with Iran with military intelligence, economic aid and covert supplies of munitions.

After Rumsfield’s visit to Baghdad in 1983, US intelligence began supplying him with satellite photos of the Iranian troops’ deployment. Americans also secretly arranged for tanks and other military hardware to be shipped to Iraq. Reagan also supplied Saddam with, among other items, chemical-analysis equipment for the Iraq Atomic Energy Commission (IAEC) and numerous shipments of “bacteria / fungi /protoza” to the IAEC. The bacterial cultures could be used to make biological weapons, including anthrax. Now you know the culprit who supplied Saddam with the biological weapons. The helicopters which were used to spray poison gas on the Kurds were also supplied by the Reagan Administration. State departments also knew that Saddam was using chemical weapons against Iranian troops and the Americans blamed Iran when they knew from their satellite imagery that it was their friend Saddam who bombed Kurdish rebels and civilians with a lethal cocktail of mustard gas, sarin, tabun and vx in 1988.

The US Commandos also assisted Iraq by blowing up Iranian oil platforms and attacking Iranian patrol boats. In addition, the US shot down an Iranian airbus in 1988 killing 290 civilians. Up to today, no action is taken to bring the culprits to justice. Saddam learnt how to blow up Kuwaiti oilfields from his friends, the Americans. What would happen to Iran if it had shot down an American civilian plane? Would not the Americans bomb them to the stone age as they have done to Afghanistan although none of its citizens were responsible for the September 11 incident? Has the message of the “prince of peace” gotten lost in the shuffle?"

Must be fun to play ignorant in your right wing fascist world, eh?

The real true evil criminals are in the Bush White House.
