[QUOTE="Yumi, post: 3119328, member: 91743"] No, no, no; not 'dishonest' as in 'you're a lier' but intellectually dishonest meaning you're viewpoints are inconsistent despite the similar situational circumstances and the preponderance of evidence. However, if you truly didn't know all that stuff about Saddam, I can't but help but ask: how are you sure your anti-war stance is based on facts and not anti-war propaganda? Clearly you either didn't have the information or decided to look the other way. If you don't know about the 1998 law, or the UN resolution violations, or even the 1998 bombing campaign, how do you know the conclusions you've reached about the war take into consideration all the facts? If you didn't know that other stuff, what else are you possibly ill-informed about? If you really didn't know, jumping up and down about how 'unjust' the war is makes you look like all you can do is parrot others. How can you be sure it really is 'unjust' when you clearly don't have all the facts? [/QUOTE]
