I've forgotten, why did we go to war in Iraq?

Answer 1

Basically you went for oil...and more oil

Answer 2

Iraq violated UN Resolutions, WMD? Saddam brutality,Terrorism, an offset to 9/11; Freedom for Iraq... and Oil issue?

Answer 3

This week or do you want the other 18 reasons that changed over 3 1/2 years? Do you want thme in the order they changed!

By the way, where is Osama bin Laden?

In fact, Bush doesn't even know why we attacked Iraq!

I think he is saying we were there to "give them HOPE!!" Now that is a great reason given the number of dead and the civil war! I am sure they are full of hope as they die of starvation and lack of water, are killed by religious factions and by us! The only thing they hope is that we leave!

It was still illegal. I don't care how many idiots voted for it! We needed a Resolution from the UN Security Council and they were never going to give us one. It is agains't international law to attack someone when you weren't attacked by them first! That is what the law said!

I am sure the ones who voted for it were sons of those who voted for the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution to put troops in South Vietnam! It took the Republicans 2 tries and almost 2 decades to get their names REMOVED from it!! Talk about sissy's!!

Answer 4

Here's why:

Breyer Brand French Silk Ice Cream: 1/2 gal. tub.

Pour into large bowl.

Add 10oz pack Oreo cookies, crumbled, but not too finely crumbled.

Add two jiggers of Strega or Galliano.

Stir just enough to mix, do not overmix.

Friends to share with, optional but not essential.

It will allay some of the pain on Tue. nite.

I only wannna help.

Answer 5

because Iraq was supposed to have WMD. none were ever found but George Bush used WMD as an excuse to try to finish what his daddy couldn't even though it was his daddies friends that sold Saddam the weapons of mass destruction in the first place

Answer 6

At first to get back the weapons that America had sold Iraq and various reasons after that

Answer 7

Untold to us this war has always been with Iran...the battleground just happens to be in Iraq. For the most part the war has gone as expected to most strategists that actually view the world in larger time span than just a few years. Those in power and those who seek it know what is actually going on too. It is too deep for those who seek immediate gratification to contemplate. Like it or not we have been defending ourselves against an enemy that is far to complicated for the American population and the world for that matter to comprehend amidst a river of propaganda perpetuated by the left. This has been carried out the only way it could be and it is justice at work and for our own good.

Answer 8

1.Sadam failed to abide by the UN resolution
2.Sadam kept shooting at our planes in the no fly zone
3.Congress and Senate vote FOR the war in Iraq,thats including Hillary Clinton,John Kerry,Ted Kennedy,Nancy Pelosi,only one that didnt vote for it was Howard Dean.
4.Bill Clinton also attacked Iraq and said that Sadam was a threat.

Are those enough reasons?

Answer 9

Money to a mercenary government. And popularity. Remember Thatcher?

Answer 10

to steal and loot the oil from iraq.

Answer 11

It has changed so often I can hardly remember, there was wmd, and deposing a dictator who gassed his own people (while he was our friend), and keeping the terrorists Over There instead of the streets of (name any US city), and helping the Iraquis because they would welcome us with flowers (apparently the kind of flowers that fire bullets or explode at the side of the road..)

Sorry to be so cynical but we have never had any straight answers on this.
