Can someone remind me how Mr Bush's 10,000 seriously injured soldiers and over 2000 dead have helped America

[dahunan]

Why did we go there again?

and.. please.. please .. do not lie and say it was a Humanitarian Mission - Thank you

I do truly respect their service but I feel Mr. bush wasted their lives.

Also, is there any accountability regarding the $300,000,000,000+ that has been taken from Americans to give away to Iraq and Haliburton and our paid for coalition of the willing?

Yay, another positive thread from an equally positive man!

If you respect their service, you must also respect their stance on the war which is overwhelmingly in favor of it.

Why'd we go attack Germany unprovoked?

 

[Screech]

You do realize Germany declared war on us first, right?

I'm far from perfect. We attacked Germany "uprovoked". We attacked Iraq "unprovoked".

Germany declared war on us before we attacked them. IIRC, didn't they also sink some of our boats in the Atlantic?

Ok.. say it was completely unprovoked.. I wonder which was more easily justifiable? Weren't they putting human beings inside of big ovens on a daily basis and wanting to take over the whole world?

^^^^^^ Yes.. Saddam was surely as powerful as Hitler and the Nazis and was incinerating humans at a staggering rate.. That is why he murdered all of those inspectors that Bush kicked out ... right?

 

[BlancoNino]

Well Saddam certainly didn't let the inspections go well. He kept violating U.N. rules and we kept drawing another line in the dirt for him to cross. He invaded kuwait which was of huge oil interest that our country heavily depended on not only for consumption, but for investment purposes as well, hmmm I could think of a few others, but those are good enough reasons.

The 1991 war was for Kuwait. He didn't invade Kuwait after that. Invalid reason for 2003 war.

Yeah, and we crushed his military, placed comprehensive international sanctions on Iraq and placed large no-fly zones around it, all while making a profit on that war.

Libya has killed hundreds through their support for terrorism, but now we're sending Exxon back in; make much sense?

Boats with war supplies on them.

Why is it every week; you or others seem to start this same type of thread.

Either you can not get an answer that satisfies you. or you just like to have your opinions re-enforced by the others.

We went there and casualites mounted because of false theories and flawed preparation.
If you are going into battle, you go in with overwhelming force and a clean objective.
Neither happened this time.
To appease the naysayers, everyone had to pussyfoot around.

In 2004, you had a chance to have such questions asked and answered. Apparently, that was not done.

Next redundant question; or do we have to wait until next week.

Exactly.. War is = to INVESTMENT.. Thank you ..

30,000+ dead is needed to steal oil.. is that what you are saying?

 

[dahunan]

flawed preparations = dead americans.. and = re-election for both Bush and Rumsfeld

The only thing that would satisfy me is bush gone and rumsfeld gone and kicked out of the service for ineptitude.

 

[tommywishbone]

Did someone compare Iraq to Germany? Oh Taunabaum:roll:

Edit: If anybody cares it's, Tanenbaum.

I fail to see an answer to the original quesion in all that. Just curious what your answer to the 'why' question is.

 

[Darkhawk28]

The reasons to go to war need to be crystal clear. And with the lack of answers to the OP, the "supporters" of this bs war don't have a clue either. They've been told to put their magnet ribbon on their car and to obey. That's all that matters to them.

 

[nergee]

it was to find the WMD's but they were not to be found then it became a Humanitarian Mission...
so lets say we wrap this up and get the Hell out........

Did you see one republican in here admit it was to get WMD? No, of course not.

You either get it or you dont.
If you do you need no explanation. If you dont, you will never understand (Or choose not to accept the reason).

No but bitching about it on the internet will!
