How many of you think that America has taken a good decision by attacking Iraq?what do u think about this ?

Question

due to war more than 120000 Iraqi,s and nearly 2200 American soldiers had died...a huge human destruction....How do u think the situation should have been handled with out war ? whom do u think are responsible to this..?

Answer 1

We should have never invaded Iraq. We never had a valid reason and I have no clue why the world has not demanded Bush's head on a platter for crimes against humanity for it.

Answer 2

I don't think attacking Iraq was a very good decision. I respect all people in our troops put there, but I think the US should have just stayed out of the whole situation with Saddam Hussein. This sentiment of dislike from the Middle East to the US wasn't ther until the US began to strike Iraq and Afghanistan. As for fighting terrorism, why fight it when it can be prevented. In fighting, only more people have been angered, and thus given them a motive to kill. It's kinda like you wanna piss someone off so you have a reason to be mean to them. Saddam is down an the people have been liberated and appointed leaders. i think it would be best to end this war as soon as possible, as there are too many people back here missing their mothers, fathers, uncles, aunts, bothers sisters etc.

Answer 3

I don't think attacking Iraq was a good idea. First Bush never had a legitamete reason and convinced the U.N. on a hunch. And he never really got U.N. permission anyway. He kept on pushing the invasion because he wanted to finish what his father started. He accused Iraq of having nuclear weapons which they never really did have and then got enough support to attack Iraq and I still have no idea why we are there. Iraq now has a democratic government and elections have taken place there several times. I think that we should send our troops home and the U.N. should give power back to Iraq. The Bush administration and the countries that gave the administration are responsible for the invasion of Iraq. I dont think there is an actual plan in Iraq currenly. I think that the soliders are just carrying out what they are told with no real goal in mind.

Answer 4

We did have a valid reason. We were attacked by terrorist. Terrorist in which Iraq is harboring. Whats the best way to stop something? Stop it at its source.

People think the terrorist are all gone and we are just sitting over there doing nothing now. If this was the case then why is it troops can not drive down the road without an IED blowing up in there face.

Another thing to point out is that Iraqi civilians are glad that we are there. That is one reason we have not left. Its not only on Bush its the fact that the people over there feel safer that we are around to stop the people that threatened there life in the past.

Answer 5

America created this mess by supplying saddam with weapons to attack the iranians in the Iran-Iraq war. America did not like the idea of an Islamic revolution and wanted saddam to destroy the islamic government of iran.

Because of the war in Iraq there is HUGE amount of anti-american sentiment in the middle-east as most muslims (even seculars) believe that this is a war on Islam rather than a war on terror.

Answer 6

Without war, nothing would have been accomplished. We had been negotiating with Iraq for over a decade with nothing useful to speak of for it.

While I was in Iraq I got to see the Kurds in the northern part of their country celebrate a cultural tradition for the first time in over 30 years. Saddam outlawed it in one of his many attempts to erase an entire people.

To say we are worse off or no better than before is a cause of uninformed people shouting their opinions to the masses. I've been there, I've talked to the people. If only public opinion could be formed from actual experience rather than a random news reporter reading from a prepared script.

Answer 7

If we had not invaded Iraq, our national debt would be 300 billion dollars less, and we might have been able to take out Saddam with a single smart bomb. Then we could have handed power over to the first Iraqi general who came forward and agreed not to do bad things, without occupying Iraq and getting into the huge mess we're in.

Answer 8

We could have continued to spend billions on a no fly zone and tried to impose sanctions against Saddam while he killed even more of his people. We could have waited for him to die of natural causes but we knew his sons were by far worse. We could have ignored that al queda groups fled Afghanistan after we invaded and landed in Iraq (al zarkarwi ring a bell)? We could have ignored Saddams support for Hamas and suicide bombers in Israel and assumed that might never happen to us.

Who is responsible - Saddam. Had he set aside his hatreds and power quest there would not have been a war. Even the mans own generals thought they had WMD's as did the world. That was a wrong answer; but the right answer is in the questions above.

Answer 9

i believe war was inevitable but it should have been in iran ... we should have went into iran first think after the deal in afghanistan there was not a big enough reason to go into iraq but at one point or another we wou;d need to do something with sadam.... my fear is that if there ever were any WMD they are now in pakistn or iranbut in the axis of "evil" there was iraq iran and north korea and we are never going into north korea because it will spark world war three but iran is the second biggest power of the three iraq had little or no powercompared to the two and now iran has al the refugees and othe insurgents from iraq that left....i believe as most people do that war isn't the way things should be solved but as long as there is uneducated religously motivated people people will fight and until poverty is fixed and religion is proven wrong there is no way to stop terrorism but with brute force

Answer 10

Saddam Hussein!! I hate what's going on over there,but if it works and I hope it does it will be better than things the way they were before.The lost of life is something we cannot do anything about.They are dead.To prevent futher lost the terrorist need to stop what they are doing,then the loss would have been for a just cause.
