you cant just fight then leave....that happened in desert storm 1....that lead us to this one...if the job was finished right the first time things might be different. the world only relies on the states for weapons...they have almost no resources left...

Yep I know my cousin died in vain during desert storm

I say in vain because more people had to die to complete what he started.........or at least came to an arrangment of ongoing peace. Well, I guess I cannot say that as we really are not fighting an actual country and too many innocents are caught in between. Not saying all are innocent or visa versa. The whole situation is disheartening and sad actually.

I agree with that. But it does take a lot of courage and patriotism to fight to clean up someone elses mess.

Anyone who says this War is illegal needs to do some reasearch.Not only was this War voted and passed anonymously by the United nations it was also passed by the House and the Senate.Furthermore both the House and the Senate has voted several times to keep prolonging and funding the War year after year.No matter what you document you are using concerning Wars including international laws there is no way it could have been more legal.

I rest most of the problems dealing with Iraq on Clintons shoulders.Had he executed Saddam like everyone was telling him he should.I don't believe we would be in this Iraq mess we are in today.

I believe this War was and still is justified.We had several nations directly threatening us over the years and the attacks were only increasing.Furthermore I don't think we need any excuse at all to start killing terrorist no matter what country they are living in.They only cause grief,misery,and destruction and there is no justification to let them live or to keep those people in power that allow them to live.

For the lot of you "it" doesn't even need a definition. You just follow the media anyway, like a bunch of brainwashed susceptible children would follow Candyman regardless of him being a killer.

Really kind of funny actually.

Works like this: Major news station twists the story (here we will use Fox since they are good at it); after that a few people catch wind of the story and eventually they **** it up as well; so then we come to Joe 'Whatshisface' Doh, and by the time he catches the story it is so horrible ****ed that he doesn't even know what the hell he is talking about.

Ala - We get most of you.

You have some awfully rude things to say for someone who hasn't stepped up. I dont follow the media, I follow my senses. And since ive been there, served there, and aided there, I see and know things that you couldnt fatham....

I think any country that wants this world a better and safer place should be behind this war 100%.We could argue that because we are taking out the terrorist network,their leaders,and their followers that we are coming closer to achieving world peace.I am also surprised that the women are against this War considering how these countries treat women like some cockroach that isn't worth two dimes in a gutter.If I was a woman the last thing I would be doing is protesting this war.If for some reason we lost and they won I'm sure the idea of wearing a burqa from head to toe out in public places wouldn't go too well with them.People are always bitching about human rights and equality.Yet you have nothing but women in slavery,genocide,and some of the worst human rights violations in the world over there.We have a chance to change that and you have all these people protesting that change.


This War is taking out a world full of bad garbage to the dump.It is long overdue.If these other countries had any guts they would get behind us,overtake those countries,and give anyone who supports those parasites called terrorist a swift execution.

That's such typical liberal BS.You are going to sit and blame the United states for invading a country that is attacking us and threatening us with destruction?You ever stop to think that had they not attacked us and threatened us then we wouldn't be there right now?They can stop this war at any time by surrendering to the United states.

This is going to be the same SOB story when Iran is getting carpet bombed to kingdom come.Blame it all on the US.Never mind that we have been telling Iran for well over 5 years to stop their nuclear program.Yet what do they keep doing?More threats,more production.Death to Israel death to America.

The majority of the people agree with our views.Those who disagree have mental disorders.The far left media has warped their brains into submission.Luckily for us all that left wing media garbage is dying off faster than we can type the news of it's demise.
