If the goal of war in Iraq was to prevent possible attack of Iraq on the USA then?

Question

that goal could be achieved by just destroing the military forces of Iraq. Why to spend so much money and human lives and invade the country? Does it all mean that the real reason was OIL and other long-term interests of the USA in Iraq?

Answer 1

Sodom funded and hid terrorists. Any country aiding and hiding Al Qaeda was warned. Pakistan's Government cooperated with us but Sodom is a murdering freak.

Answer 2

Please stop saying we did it for oil. If we did then why am I paying $2.25 gal instead of $1.65? Ok now that, that's ruled out. We actually did it for more than one reason. WoW! what a concept! Let's see.
1)He used Chemical weapons against Iraq and his own people. Therefore WMD's a identified by the world intelliengence officers of Germany,France,Brit's,USA, & Russia.
2)Saddam was a Mass murder. Please see the BIO channel show on Saddam and his gain to power
3) Iraq Continually shot at our aircraft in the No-fly zone which in the Geneva convention ruled that any aircraft shot at constituted war. Clinton never did anything about this. Bush did!
4)Iraq continually threatened Neighboring countries. Unfortuantly Iran doesn't have to worry anymore (We neeed to send a message to them Like we did Russia during the Regan years)
5) Iraq backed via $$ Hamas,& Hizbullah terrorist groups. Everyone knows this. Intelligence show Al-quida operatives meeting with Iraqi officals. Again we know this and it's proven. I'm sure Saddam knew it too even though he denies it. (Like a criminal saying "I didn't do it". )
6) After 9/11 The US congress and President warned any nation that supported terrorist groups was against the US. Iraq was one among others who supports terrorism. Afghanistan was another. We'll get to the rest later. Bush gave them a choice. They both made bad decisions.
7) We really didn't loose a lot human lives. HELLO.. We are in a war. We were attacked. We lost 7,000 in the 1st month of WWII We currently only lost 3000

Answer 3

Wow. Nettel is a freaking idiot.

THERE IS NO CONNECTION BETWEEN 9/11, AL QAEDA, AND IRAQ. Get it through your thick little head. NO CONNECTION. The empty set. None. Nothing. So that's not the reason.

A lot of the facts that "everybody knows" are patently false. Stop listening to Fox News. Open your eyes.

"Bush did something" is funny. Bush sent 3000 troops to die in a quagmire. Bush invaded without the hint of exit strategy. Bush has tried to keep this country in the thrall of fear for the last 6 years. Finally, in November, this country said, "enough."

"Only 3000!?!?!?!" Really. Well, jackass, 9/11 took "only 3000" lives, too. How about if you send one soldier to die for a mistake, it's still a mistake.

"Yeah let's go kick their asses!! I'll hold your coat," right?
