I think allot of people care. Unfortunately, not those with the power to send our troops over or bring them back.

I Think your statistics are a little off. We didn't kill 100,000 Iraqi innocents. You need to quit reading the terrorist blogs. You would be better served getting a subscription the Washington Times. They will put a liberal slant to what you are reading and pretty much give you actual real statistics.
Just in case you were busy that week, Saddam had been killing thousands of Kurds (nerve gas) for a long time. Not to mention the real torture (not water boarding) he was having done to anyone who he didn't like. Oh by the way, did you hear about the Kuwait thing.

Probably because we DIDN'T kill all those Iraqis!
Most of them were killed by INSURGENTS, who are *gasp* NOT Iraqi, AND NOT American!
Besides, the number of innocent civilians killed is actually unknown. Some place the number to be about 45,000, while others place it to be around 200,000.
As for the weapons, Hussein's own administration has admitted than Hussein had WMD's, and he shipped the majority of them into Jordan and Syria.
The rest...were FOUND.

Please by all means tell me where you got that number from. I am very interested to know that America is responsible for killing 100,000 innocent Iraqi civilians.
Did you ready this on the internet, see it on CNN, in a book? Or are you just making stuff up now?
I think there's a serious problem with people creating statistics, events, and scewing facts, or 'so called' facts that they read in fanatical books, the internet, or the all reliable, completely unbiased media.
I am aware that terrorist continue to make attacks against the western influence in Iraq, in the name of Islam. I am aware that a majority of the time more innocent Iraqis are killed, in attempt to kill or injure the armed forces and public figures in Iraq. I am aware that during initial sweep and clear operations, and other operations at the begining of any conflict or war, that collateral damage is inevitable. I am aware that some soldiers from armed forces sworn to protect and defend the innocent, have commit crimes against the innocent in every one of our nations conflicts and wars.
What I am not aware of, is where on Earth people collaborate to come up with and evangelize lies, distort facts, falsley accuse, and unjustly attack the character of an enite nation, of whom they reside in, in efforts to oppose one leaders descisions. The leader of course being the President, who is still supported by his entire cabinet, congress and his military commanders on the ground. An uncanny amount of congressional represenatives voted to send us into Iraq. Represenatives like John Kerry. Who voted to send in troops, under the confident belief that weapons of mass destruction were currently in play, that Sadam Husein was out of control, and that the nation of Iraq needed our help. Some of these represenatives have voted to send in troops, but not to supply them with water, ballistic vest and vehicles, hot meals, uniform services, ammunition, or communication services. Let's all make descisions that will impact two nations forever, and then change our minds down the road.
The problem is that we have a Texan in office, though, it doesnt help :D The problem is that our represenatives don't have a clue.

Saddam Hussein seems to have left supplies of weapons and explosives that are presently being used by the insurgency to kill their own. The world is safer with Saddam gone. As far as the numbers over there, it is the hand of God. It is hard to be upset when you hear of suicide bombers and car bombings every day.

Wrong. Wrong. Wrong. It was Saddam Hussein who killed hundreds of thousands of innocent Iraqis. The US military is fighting terrorists and jihadists, who themselves are killing innocents.
Saddam had and used wmd's. Wmds were found in Iraq after the US took over. Try to pay attention and quit looking for reasons to complain.

Many of us are in denial or too busy making a living in the U.S. for this kind of information to penetrate our minds. We'd get a clue about this sort of behavior if the tables were turned.

That's what war is ya ding-a-ling. Nothing has change since the very first war men fought, just the technology they use to kill each other. Get a clue.

Better enjoy life in America, if that's where you are, while you can. More and more people are thinking like you which will lead to America being destroyed, then we can all go live like Russians or Albanians or Arabs or whatever. Probably happen within a decade. So enjoy your internet now and your freedom to jack off here and post stupid and hostile posts without fear of retribution or police smashing your door in to take you away and be tortured.
You people have no idea how fortunate we all currently are - but you will.
