Why did the west encourage the split up of the Middle East???why in the old testament book of Ezekiel chapter 28 verses 24-25 it refers to Israel as a people and not a country??? Why dont people listen to the truth and get their heads out of their crotch?

Absolutely nothing(as the song goes) I would not consider myself to be politically informed so I suppose I cant really make an educated comment on the topic. The wars in the middle east just seem so pointless to me. People will die as a result and not much will be achieved. What are your opinions?

He had two war supporter decals on his vehicle. One for "I love Bush" and the other "I support the troops". All I did was ask him to send his two sons ( 20 and 22 years old ) to the war to make Bush proud. The father looked at me like he had crap in his mouth. Why did he look at me like that? I thought he supported the war? Why the hard looks?

I didn't see any recruits standing in line begging to go to Iraq and fight as I passed the Army/Marine recruiting station. Why?

This website cites between 43,000 and 48,000 civilian deaths so far in the war.

If more civilians are killed in the war than by Saddam Hussein, can the U.S. call themselves liberators?

No matter the time, place, or mood my boyfriend can always make me laugh and smile. He always jokes around and makes whoever he is around feel good. Being in such a serious environment will that change? I know it makes them bigger and stronger men withe different respects than before, but will he still goof around and be the same man he was when he left?

If you are a war supporter will you feel shame for sending men/women to their death? Remember, Iraq did not do 9-11.

If two factions are continually at odds, killing each other daily, would the answer be for one faction to completely wipe out the opposing faction; thus creating peace?

please tell us your happy story of a grand life full of bliss and no worries as a military brat

would like great detail of how you kept all your friends and adjusted well in school, overcame those odds and are socially adaptable to this day, a mindless bot who has forgotten what it was like to not have a parent or both around and be raised by community

just like Vietnam and WWII, all should be part of a conflict, if this war of choice is legit why don't we stop piddling around and start with the Bush twins...war would be over by Friday

for you war hawks, already did my time, 3 combat rotations, 3 expeditions to middle east, life spent mech. inf and cavalry

actually with Iran and Venezuela getting all cozy, looks like we spent our forces energy in a place that didn't threaten us and let these guys (also world leaders in oil production) become strong enough to threaten oil to be sold in Euros and jack up our oil prices again. Notice the price went down recently....see how high oil prices bankrupts the US..and you wonder what the strategy is here..

not that hidden...not at all Hegemony. what a concept

Enlistment age is 42 now, there's no reason for you to get drunk and post numerous misspellings on Yahoo when you could go fight.

It is with Arnold Schwarzenegger endorsing President Bush. One of the captions in this commercial is there are 130,000 US troops in Iraq. Which made me wonder how many people are in a troop. Would that be People in a troop x Troops in Iraq = Total US Soldiers in Iraq? Or is a troop considered on single soldier?

I am unsure here.

After the seizure of the US embassy in Tehran, in November 1979, Iran was public enemy number one; only a few years later, emissaries of Washington were selling arms to the Iranian mullahs and using the proceeds to finance a guerrilla war against the new adversary, the Sandanistas of Nicaragua - while both Britain and the USA were helping Saddam Hussein prosecute his own battles against the Iranians.

Washington applauded Saddams invasion of Iran in September 1980, which precipitated a decade of war, yet when he tried the same trick in Kuwait then years later, the full might of Nato was mobilised against `the Hitler of the Gulf`.

The declared purpose of GW Bushs Afghan war was to destroy Al Qaeda and the Taleban and to install a regime repecting womens rights and promote secular education. Yet throughout the 1980s Reagan offered financial and political support to fundamentalists whose sole wish was to unseat such a Govt.

Who is our countrys main enemy?
