Why must so many of our men and women die in this Iraq war???

Answer 1

That is what happens in war. Why did we send them there to die for an unjust reason in the first place is the real question.

Answer 2

The main reason is to rewrite the history of the Vietnamese war.
Kissinger, Rumsfeld, and Cheney all wanted an imperial presidency restored and a vindication of the outtcome of the Vietnam war.
This war in Iraq is political and bogus. We are being preyed on by political predeators. Bush is just as much cheerleader now as he was in college.

Answer 3

That's how wars are fought. Its no different than radical socialists, Nazis, that take over a large region and must be put down. Its no different than the Japanese striking preemptively to try toweaken or frighten us and an atom bomb being used to end a war much earlier than it was expected to last.

When people are willing to blow themselves up to kill even just a few or just one American, you must have the Americans that were targeted anyways to have weapons to protect themselves. thousands upon thousands of radical Muslims have killed themselves for what they believe in all just to kill some of us. IS THAT REGISTERING??

Any time you hear about a few americans dieing you get heart broken but you dont see how unafraid they are to destroy us.

Answer 4

I'll sum that up in two reasons:
1) Thousands of our troops have died needlessly in this illegal war because of Bush's little white lie about Saddam's alleged acquisition of WMD's from the African country of Niger, none of which was proven true; and
2) Bush's buddies at the oil companies want to get all of the black gold out of Iraqi soil at the expense of over 2,700 slain soldiers, and none of them realized they have the dead soldiers' blood in their hands!!!!

Answer 5

Because the last time we ran away after invading a country 10 of millions of people died. We can't let that happen again. My mother always told me that if you make a mess you clean it up. Right or wrong we went in. If we leave the good people of Iraq now millions will be slaughtered by extremists from and funded by Iran.

Answer 6

Because they volunteered to join the Armed forces knowing that there was a good chance that they could be killed combined with a fool as a commander and chief and that means a lot of needless American deaths.

Answer 7

So worthless scum, that have no life, and shouldn't even be alive today, can live without worrying about the Iraqis coming over here and killing you. also, so you won't have to go over there, so you better be GD'D THANKFUL YOU STUPID DONKEY

Answer 8

because nobody wins a war without someone getting killed,america was basically founded on kicking but for a greater good,love it or leave it

Answer 9

So many? Look up the death toll in the wars of the 20th century.

Answer 10

So that the oil will start flowing and Bush and his Big Oil buddies can get richer. And, Bush can crow about how he brought democracy to those poor, suffering Iraqis - even though they didn't want it.
