Politic-Juridical view
According to the US president, George W. Bush, Saddam Hussein, the Iraqis president, is a dictator. In Bush's opinion the parliament of Iraq has no real influence. It does not matter if the cabinet agrees with the resolution or not, because finally it is Saddam who decides; an action that Washington calls ‘political theater’. America stated that if Saddam doesn't agree with the resolution this will have serious consequences. Meanwhile America and Great-Britain launched 200.000 soldiers for an attack on Iraq. Comparable view The Iraqis government is characterized by a dictatorial structure with a strong military regime. The opinion of the people does not count. For example, the Iraqis population does no longer tolerate the insert of biological/chemical weapons, which undoubtedly causes a lot of victims, not only on the enemies' side. But this does not have any influence on the policy of the government, it leads only to oppression of the population. Iraq has a parliament, but the problem for the people is that during the elections there is only one party eligible. As they don't have the option to choose, it is not a real democracy. Also the members of the parliament have little influence on the policy of Iraq. There are suspicions that Saddam put pressure on the members and threatened them so that they only proclaim his points of view. Compared to the Iragis government, the Dutch governement -which is characterized by democracy and free expression of opinion for everyone - the votes of the people are important enough to have influence on political decisions. For decisions as launching weapons a wide area (draagvlak) within own country will be required. (deze zin snap ik niet helemaal in deze context- misschien kun je die weglaten...) All taken decisions will be checked before they are put into action, first by the Second Chamber and after that by the First Chamber. In this way the interests of the population will be pursued in the best way. My opinion: · Is it justifiable that the USA, as the only remaining world-power, is trying to police the world? · Do you think it is justifiable that the Dutch government supports the USA without a referendum thus risking having to participate in the war? 1. I think that the USA is allowed to take actions against terroristic organisations only with the support of the UN, because the safety of more countries than that of the USA is involved. Violent actions should only be taken with unanimous support of the other countries in the world, only then a war should be started. 2. I think the government is not allowed to make decisions that could endanger the safety of the Dutch citizens, because there was no threat of war during the elections. According to me, we should have a national advisory referendum when the government is on the verge of making an important decision. The judgement of the referendum is also something that should be taken into account. |

Ik wil nog even een verandering aanbrengen:

Ik moet vrijdag een essay inleveren in het Engels over de politiek. Ik heb al een deel geschreven. (2e helft moet ik nog doen). Ben niet erg goed in Engels, dus zou iemand voor mij even willen kijken of er fouten in zitten (ongetwijfeld) en die mij even laten weten. Alvast onwijs bedankt! Heb je geen echte vrienden ofzo?? dat je over zoiets lomps een forum claimt om het door mensen na te laten kijken..
