Sounds to me like the Confederates who burned their barns, crops, homes, and livestock so that the Yankees wouldn't benefit from it when they invaded the South. Candace K.

The article includes this quote: "We certainly have very serious concerns about Saddam Hussein (news - web sites) setting fire to the oil fields," another senior U.S. official said. Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this action completely legal? I mean, if a country wants to blow up their own oil fields, they are allowed to, right? Another random thought - what if Iraq went the Ghandi route. In other words, let the US and England invade but absolutely refuse to fire back. Considering all the countries that are against the war, this would be a _very_ good way to get even more countries mad at the US. -rc ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=5 This list and all House of Fusion resources hosted by CFHosting.com.
