What is this 'MISSION' that the US army is suppose to do in Iraq?

Question

This is a follow up to my previous question of should we bring our troops back. Some answered YES but after the 'MISSION' is completed. What mission? Saddam's captured, no WMDs were found, a govt is already installed. Again, what 'MISSION' are we talking about here??

Answer 1

When will you realise that the MISSION will NEVER end! This is not another NAM. NAM was for the economy, this is for something far worse, world domination. Terrorism is just an EXCUSE to be used to invade other nations. Watch out Europe and Asia, you guys are next on the list!!

Answer 2

Yes the main mission has been accomplished, we are now just trying to make the government there solid so that when we do leave it doesnt just break down and bring about a new dictatorship. What most people forget is that we have had this same problem with all our wars where we introduced a new government. It takes a long time to set it up. We have almost forgotten that after WW2 there was huge resentment towards Germany,Italy,and Japan because the troops were still there. But if you look at the countries now, you can now appreciate the governments that we helped to set up. Just give it time, even though we are struggling with the fact that Americans are dying there, this is for a good cause that will benefit us in the future as well as the next generations.

Answer 3

Marines are ur go in and guard men untill the the military arrives. imagine the marines are u and u go camping out with a tent and the guard element is the tent without help to carry it up so u have a tent yet its not held jointly it has no purpose so as that's wen the military is accessible in and they are the poles to carry it.. so marines get the decision first to infiltrate and they do artwork with the army I evaluate the U. S. military all militia branches yet its genuinely called america militia yet u'd imagine oh ok the military besides they are there for an same reason to guard the U. S. yet marines have a diverse funds that's why u do not see all of an same stuff as u do in the military.. What they love to do is jus positioned the front strains and strive against zone personel from the military into the marines get rid of all confusion and militia preparation is extremely just about as troublesome as marine preparation marines are harder notwithstanding that's the call that makes em sound extra valuable that's the image they portray that provides em the understand they recieve.

Answer 4

The military leaders and the rank and file are most likely asking the same question. The mission I think is a moving target that seems to change daily when Bush get up in the morning and learns what he said the day before is no longer going to fly with the public

Answer 5

Missions

1. To get rid of Saddam Hussein. All of the intel from a lot of different places showed that he was trying to get WMD to use against us. It wasn't until later that we discovered that all his scientists and generals were lying to him about what they had. He thought and we thought he had the WMD.

2. Form a democratic government. We were able to form Germany and Japan into functioning democratic governments who are now good friends and allies. We hope to do the same in Iraq.

3. Fight terrorism. The terrorists find it easier to attack Americans there, than coming here. I for one, would rather fight them there than here. Russia decided to not help us, and they have had to fight the terrorists on thier own land (Opera, Beslan, etc.) If we do nothing else but keep the child killing nutcases fighting us over there, then I am all for it. I have to many loved ones here to see them dead because we were too scared to go over there.

Answer 6

God I'm so tierd of answering these quesitons. People seem to have no interest in educating themselves with the vast resources at their disposal & then expect others to spend their time leading them to the answers. I don't mind debate (that's why I come here), or helping people out, but lazy isn't a quality that motivates me much.

Alright replying to your msg then:
I've done my part & I sympathize with your concern for your brother & I'll answer your question. I'm smplly tierd of saying the same thing over & over again to people that are trying to make political points or who are unwilling to do the research for themselves.

It's very simple why we're in Iraq. We're standing btwn the parties that would otherwise be in a civil war that would divide the country. Fine you're saying? The problem is that civil war is between sunni & shite & would be btwn those religious grps across the entire mid-east. In teh background, the Kurds with populations in Iraq, Turkey, Iran, Syria, & Jordan will try to take territory away from each of those countries to est a nation. Such a massive regional civil war will force the US to send 5 times the number of troops back there for much longer with 10times as many killed. We'd have to do it to save the world economy & prevent mass genocide of millions. ON THE OTHER HAND, if we win we'll have est democracy there that inspires neighboring populations to reform their govts, demand modern education, & freedom. Only with those things in place will future generations reject the cult teaching of those like bin Laden. In short, we can win or be destroyed as a country.

I'm sure your bro is good at his job & doing his best to stay safe, so try not to worry too much. The only thing you can do is help him keep his spirts up & mind on his work. Msg me if you have concerns in the future.

Answer 8

Basically, just watch Fahrenheit 9/11. That's a lot of info right there.

All about how Bush's "Friends" give Bush oil and money. He needed an excuse to get into Iraq, *cuz of his dad*, 9/11 was the perfect excuse.

Remember: What ever happened to Afghanistan? Weren't we fighting them first? Yeah. Then somehow it got linked to Iraq. *WMD*

Then you ask:

What WMDs....?

Answer 9

1 Control the oil

2 Get rich at the expense of American tax payers and thousands of US. and Iraqi deaths

3 Build up military bases in the region

4 Suppress the people (let them fight amongst themselves).

Mission accomplished

Answer 10
