Military - January 2007

Killing civilians? Might want to ask those 120,000 dead Iraqis what they think of American terrorism.

Political use of fear? Pretty much American foreign policy

Guerrilla wars? More or less like the US has done in Iran, Iraq, Venezuela and a handful of other countries.

The sad reality is that by its own definition the American government is a terrorist state. We are in a war our government is controlling both sides of. Al-qaeda is a department of the CIA, and in the war on ourselves we're losing. This war only exists to justify permanent military bases around the world and to create a sense of fear, chaos and despair at home and abroad for the consolidation of power.

Welcome to imperialist America

This is an aircraft that is able to put a bullet on every inch of a football field. Somali Islamists are fighting their survival now against Somali troops and Ethiopian forces. My question is, why didn't the U.S. intervene and fight them when Islamists were in control in Somalia?

a military recruiter told me if i joined, i'd get all my student loans paid for, I'd be able to attend grad school of my course, i won't be sent to iraq, and I will probably get high paying jobs when i get back and I can retire early. Is all this true? its not in the contract but he says the military keeps their word?

My fiance is in the military. He just opened a bank account. Besides that, he has no credit at all. Taking into consideration that he's in the Army, what are the chances he can get approved for a personal loan of $5,000 - $6,500? Is it easy for you guys in the military to get approved for things like this?

On the one hand-
Saddam was an evil man, guilty of mass murder, rape and thievery. He was the supreme dictator of Iraq, and stole money intended to feed his people to build palaces. He directed his people to make nuclear weapons and was led to believe that he was succeeding in that endeavor, while his people gave us reasons to believe that he was making nuclear weapons as well. By invading we could give the Iraqis freedom and democracy.

On the other hand-
Bush may have over-stated our case for believing Saddam actually did have weapons. We knew it would likely be a long and difficult battle. Mistakes have been made in the execution and in restoring peace to Iraq. Perhaps the Iraqi people didn't really deserve freedom and democracy, and can't appreciate it because they didn't earn it.

Did we do the right thing by invading Iraq and deposing Saddam?
