Is the United States in a state of Denial over Iraq?

Question

I say Bush and company have not "AND" will not admit the truth.

Answer 1

You can say and believe what you will. But neither I, the military, other logical thinkers, or the President are in denial. We understand what we are doing there. Iraq understands what we are doing there. You and your kind can't seem to grasp the concept. I suspect it may be just over your head.

Answer 2

Yup! The fight is Actually in Afghanistan and will be in Iran soon! I guess Iraq is just the Preseason Warmup! The US needs to sign more players to get killed in these new fights coming up. I'm actually use to hearing that 1 or 2 Hundred people a day are dying in Iraq now! Joke: Someone told Bush that "Three Brazillian Men Had Died In Iraq" Bush said how many is a Brazillion!

Answer 3

The United States isn't in denial. Just the politicians.

Answer 4

You are correct. Mistakes were made. But the western world is locked in mortal combat with a group of religious extremist. These people are going to fight us to the death. They do not value life and death as we do. These people can take a defeat and spin it into a win, in they eyes of their followers.

This is an extremely dangerous situation for us to be in. Admitting mistakes only encourages the enemy. We all know mistakes were made but admitting them only adds fuel to the fire.

If you look at the facts, since 9/11 there has not been another terror attack preformed by Islamic Radicals on American soil. "Bush and co." are keeping us safe.

Answer 5

Fortunately not the whole United States but definitely the folks in the White House.

Answer 6

A LOT of us are saying that - some of us have been saying that since he was in office the FIRST time, but apparently, not enough people listened - Voters were more concerned that gay people not get married and that no woman should be allowed to consider having an abortion - that's what got him elected - and now we're all paying for it - the most of whom are those in Iraq, Afghanastan, etc. getting KILLED because of his ego.
