It's not surprising so many people are indeed against the conflict and invasion of Iraq by US-led coalition force when the real reason for the B/S in the first place WAS.. and indeed IS Afghanistan and it's surrounding border countries... who (allegedly) train and harbour Mr Bin Laden and his scallywags who (allegedly) are responsible for the attrocity to innocent people in the Twin Towers on 9th September 2001.

We can be respectful and agree that Saddam was a raving tyrant and needed to be dealt with as only such despots can be - by force.

Indeed, Saddam DID breach many infamous UN sanctions so needed to be punished... not "because" of the daily attrocities he had carried out in his name to his own people there in Iraq !! Oh no, he was mis-appropriating tax-payers money belonging to member countries of the U.N.... can't have that now can we?

However, US instigated a global war on terrorism after the tragedy of 9/11 - but, exactly WHAT was the REAL tragedy of that day?
a) The needless deaths of so many innocent people going about thier daily business in theh Twin Towers?
b) The US Government FAILING to act on Intelligents reports long BEFORE 9/11?

The point of sending troops into Afghanistan was retaliation for 9/11 - to deal with the alleged perpetrators of that attrocity !

Unfortunately, after a lengthy time on the ground with raging battle in the South and North of Afghanistan, US forces received ordeers from thier Commander-in-Chief in 2003,- namely one George W Bush, President of the United States of America, to withdraw 77% of US troops in readiness for "war" in Iraq, KNOWING it would leave NATO troops on the ground GREATLY under-manned and under-resourced in the ONE place that the world coud see a reason why the troops were on the ground in that country for the fall of the Twin Towers in 2001.

USA ASKED UK to contribute troops from the UK Nations Best asset and resource, despite the rotation fo US troops already being of great concern to NATO.

I'm not sure as to what your question was, in light of your dissertative response, but...

Perhaps the real reason people are against the conflict in Iraq is because it was begun under false premises (the non-existent weapons of mass destruction and the complete lack of Iraqi involvement in in the 9/11 attacks), it was carried out with no plan for what would happen after the initial battle (the demobilizing of the Iraqi army without disarming them, the sacking of Baghdad's infrastructure and museums, the lack of planning for the oli industry, etc.), it was put in place by American politicians with no idea of Iraqi religious politics (Sunni/Shiite mutual antipathy), it was coordinated by a civilian appointee, Donald Rumsfeld, who refused to listen to the military professionals over whom he served...

Well, I could go on, but needn't. Perhaps the real reason people are against the conflict is because it should never have happened in the first place, and thousands of Americans, and perhaps hundreds of thousands of Iraqis, have been killed or maimed for no good reason.

Why attack homes and what function did homes help that made them a objective? Why did we the yankee inhabitants no longer question the justifications? Why replaced into our reaction greater interior the line of revenge instead of justice? Why replaced into it had to take over an entire united states of america instead of in basic terms punishing the , as questioner reported suspect with out data, while maximum folk of criminals got here from a completly distinctive united states of america? After a lynching did the perpetrators contemplate whether they did appropriate or replaced into it self defence of suggestions they had to proceed to have faith interior the suited of difficulty.? Why is it that oftentimes while we've made a gross mistake we want we had concept till now we took action? Why does guilt attempt and conceal fact? Why do we've a rustic the place sixty 4% say conflict in Iraq is incorrect ? Why is there not greater persons speaking out against it and against a central authority that denys those persons suggestions? Why does this "Silent Majority" choose for to stay silent while on my own yet dares in basic terms in mass and anonimity dare to refute the strikes? Why is it the reality while popular via some nevertheless hidden to the various and the complexities tried to be minimized instead of analyzed? Why is one answering a question with a question?

Iran is the broker of terrorism in the world .
Now, we have forces to the west,east and south of them.
If need be ,they'll have to fight on 3 fronts, which is not a good place to be .
