what was President George's reason for invading Iraq?

Answer 1

Weapons of Mass Destructions in Iraq...he said that they should give it up or he will attack

Answer 2

Heard it was to finish what his Dad started with the Kuwait. invasion.
Georgie used 9/11 to the hilt! Those terrorists were all Saudi Arabians.. their funding came from there . Not Iraq. Bush is very close to the Saudi Royal Family..and big oil, of course.
Saddam was a monster..but the people did not request an invasion. Perhaps because about 30% of their population 'was' children. Lot of them gone now..not to mention US losses.

There were no WMDs.. just "faulty intelligence".

Bush wants to keep a US military presence in Iraq to maintain a military threat to other countries in the gulf. IT'S OIL AND No BID CONTRACTS (Halliburton) . period!

Answer 3

Lies or the truth?

My raised eyebrows made him shake his head, and he went on: "I don't know what's worse. Killing people over political philosophy, like in my time, or for oil. Hey, at least this time we might get something for our blood. Like ol' Tecumseh Sherman said, 'Nations go to war when there is something to be got by it'. Now oil can be got by it. After a great start, we're gonna be no different than any other empire that came down the historical pike.

"And I know what you're gonna say next. 'He sponsors terrorism'. Where's the proof? I thought we were going after bin Laden for that. But wait, Afghanistan ain't got any oil. So we need another monster, who's got something worth taking. And Saddam is so damn convenient. Yeah, he's an evil sonovabitch who deserves to be taken out, but are we the ones who should do it? Are our kids the ones who should die for it? Is he worth another Wall like this?

Answer 4

The reason that he gave publicly was because he believed that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction, which was against UN rules. However, in my opinion, he had alterior motives- perhaps oil, perhaps to avenge his father...who knows?!

Answer 5

If you want to believe any of the lies that come out of his mouth go for it but remember he speaks with a forked tongue like any other serpents in his family do.
Now, what promises has he fulfilled since he took office that would be beneficial to "We the People?"
See, his forked tongue has spoken and those dumb bas**rds still reelection that serpent for another 4 miserable years.
He does what he wants to please his dad, no matter who gets killed in the process, another act of the serpent with a forked tongue.
The longer he stays in office the more chances we have of being killed by terrorists so why is congress sitting on their hands other then keeping their hands warm?
People, stand up and demand that he is taken out of office now before it's to late for all of us.
