Ostensibly, we are in Iraq to bring the people the joy and freedom of an American-style democracy, right? Then why do I read so many questions and answers here that equate Iraqis with terrorism, 9/11, radical Islam? Why do I keep reading people stating that we should just "bomb them off the map"? Why do people keep asking questions about "only" 16,000+ Iraqis dying?

Would Americans really rather that all Arabs were "gone"? Aren't we creating more and more terrorists this way?

And what does the war in Iraq have to do with keeping the US free?

People keep talking about the terrorists in Iraq. To whom are they referring?

Before you think anything about me, I'd just like to tell you guys that I hear this ALL the time and I don't understand it. Why Israel out of all countries of the world? I'm not going to deny or accept the idea because I have no idea what the reason behind it is.

There R other countries who need help like in Africa. Y does the U.S. help them? This is BCoz they are poor & the U.S. have nothing to gain. But in Iraq, they can easily steal their petrol. So, the point is that the U.S. is no angel but the worst devil.
they only go to steal innocent people in pretext of help. So, I wanna know Y do people continue to support these "......", as if, they had want their house to be destroyed.

What would you say about the war? What would you ask? Would you have any intelligent comments or questions? Would you "trust" this person? Would you be fearful? Would you think "terrorist"?

Thank You Soldier

Have you stopped to thank a Veteran today?
For the price of freedom they had to pay?

Did you gaze into those distant eyes?
Did you see the ghosts he can't deny?

Did you think a soldier's heart was made of steel?
Because he was trained to kill, he couldn't feel?

Did you see the guilt written on his face,
For the loss of life he can't replace?

Did you know he mourns the lives he couldn't save,
And walks with comrades in their grave?

Did you remember the boy with innocence lost?
Do you really know war's ultimate cost?

Have you felt the blast of artillery fire?
Do you have the courage it would require?

Have you stood in trenches consumed with fear?
Felt the enemies breath so very near?

Have you walked with God on a battleground?
Seen your brothers dead or dying all around?

Have you stopped to thank a Vet today,
Or did you just turn and walk away?

From the pain he'll carry for the rest of his life,
Did you consider his family, his children, his wife?

That watch him suffer in silence each and every day,
As he's haunted by memories that don't go away?

Did you care that the soldier is still pulling guard?
That his heart, mind, and soul will forever be scarred?

Do you know how he suffers from ptsd?
Or that our precious freedom is never free?

Do you care that he still hears the blood curdling screams?
Or that he returns to the war each night in his dreams?

Have you felt the sorrow of a combat Vet?
Or would you rather just forget?

That war has pierced his hardened heart,
And torn this soldier all apart?

Would you rather our heroes just fade away?
Or will you stop to thank a Vet today?

I don't usually go into questions that say "are conservatives this, or are liberals that"... but I thought I would dip into the mire...

but seriously... I've seen so many times where conservatives either don't believe something because it's not happening in their town or to someone they know...

the world is much larger than just you and your town... even larger than your state and country... and those things, if not dealt with, could one day affect YOU...

even when I ask a theoretical question, conservatives assume that the subject of the question is directly related to me... I ask a question about poverty, they tell me to get to work... when I have a job?

Sorry I see poor people from time to time and I stop and think about them? maybe even ask a question? but that's just one example that I've seen in many different questions...

but the true irony here is that many of them are religous and the golden rule basically directly speaks against this action?

Would it hold up in court if you were granted a patent, but it was reasonably well known that the original was created well before the patent, as well as if the original creator's name was widely known for the creation?

Hospitals across the country are imposing minimum waiting times - delaying the treatment of thousands of patients.

After years of Government targets pushing them to cut waiting lists, staff are now being warned against "over-performing" by treating patients too quickly. The Sunday Telegraph has learned that at least six trusts have imposed the minimum times.

My great grandfather owned land down in Kentucky when he was alive. According to my grandmother and aunt he had an estate. its was my grandfather's Grandfather, and my grandpa pasted away so it goes to his children and my mother pasted away so it would go to her children me and my brother. their are also other heir's to this property. The other day I get a call from my grandma saying that some people are living on the property and that I should do something about the property before we lose it. So my question is this...

What should I do? Where do I start? Who do I contact?

I am a college student and can't afford an attorney but being that it is an estate I was thinking their should be an attorney for the estate. Not really sure what to do need some help.

like I said it is in Kentucky
