    Coalition in breach of geneva convention

    By not ensuring law and order and stopping the looting, they are in breach of the geneva convention.

    Probably better than shooting the looters, or arresting them and keeping them in prisoner of war camps. They are just taking back that which was stolen from them in the first place.

    Coalition has no right to moan about the geneva convention themselves so

    The geneva convention is a bit like the universal declaration of human rights or the European court - only a good thing when you use it to your advantage

    plender... now that we have toppled Iraq's government AND we have uncovered some of the weapons material for the WMDs, I guess this is the best you can come at us with huh??

    No you haven't found any weapons or materials for use with WMDs.
    Everything the US has found is either just a rumour, or not actual illegal stuff

    Its only a matter of time before something is found. Only someone who is naive actually still believes there are no WMD's in Iraq.

    Ohhh and let me make your next post for you plenderj.

    The Coalition forces tanks were seen today riding on the wrong side of the road down the streets of Baghdad with total disregard for traffic laws!!! Coalition troops have also been seen jaywalking and littering. Such lawlessness and brutal disregard for traffic laws can't go unpunished! Tanks commanders and coalition troops have to be brought to justice. I mean why should Iraqi's obey the traffic laws if the coalition forces don’t?

    Actually I would say that only some naive would think that there are WMDs still actually inside of Iraq.
    Anyone in their right mind would have shipped them out ages ago.

    But of course, like the US always does, it won't admit it was wrong.
    And like you've already done you've badged this war as an act to save the Iraqi people.

    Interesting how there was no mention of them in Bush's initial terror speechs.
    Ahhh the wonders of spin-doctoring.

    David Blunkett who is in the British government said that he hope no WMDs were found.
    Now the goverment of which he is a part says that there are weapons.
    So, does he just want the coalition to fail to find them or does he not really believe that there are any even though he is telling the public that they exist.
    Surely the latter is more likely.

    If WMDs are found, David Blunket would probably be the last to know about it ...his dog, on the other hand, can smell that stuff a mile off.

    And kind of like you were wrong about the Iraqi people not wanting to be liberated right?
