I think that Uncle Sam is a young empire and sees a chance to strike while the irons hot. I think that "the war on terror" is used as a pretext for US empirial agression.

It is very simple. We are in Iraq so that someday your children won't have to go to a Mosque to pray to Allah (who will be their only choice); so your daughters don't have to wear Burqas and so you don't have to someday wonder why you didn't see it coming.
We are in Iraq (while we still have the freedom to speak our minds) so we can prevent people who hate Americans from taking that freedom away from us.
If you don't know why we are in Iraq, it might be because you have no idea what principles are and what it means to live in a country with a constitution that leaves us free and how important and rare it is in this world; a constitution that gives us freedoms that you may not know the source of and what it took to establish them. We are in Iraq to prevent that constitution from being invalidated by an invading Army of Muslim extremists who will not let you speak your mind and not let you question the decisions they make for you and not give you the luxury of having a dissenting opinion as this country does now.
We are in Iraq to make sure that people who don't know why we are in Iraq remain free to ask questions that as Americans they should know the answer to...if they care about their freedoms and their affluent lives. We are in Iraq because we were attacked on 911 and some of us realized those murderers really want all Americans to die and that Saddam Hussein wanted the same thing - and was actively working toward our demise - look at Salman Pak and Al Zarqawi and Weapons of Mass Destruction that have been found. We are in Iraq because some of us know that we must make a stand somewhere and it is better to make it now in Iraq than here in the U.S. when it might be too late.

the real real reason is because after bush sr. kicked saddam's butt in 91, he backed off and let him stay in power--and then the idiot tried to assinate sr.--ever since then bush jr. has had his mind made up for retribution.--well, saddam is dead now and jr's personal vendetta is costing us billions of dollars, and more importanly, the lives of service men and women, and innocent civilians. iraq had nothing to do 9-11, and there are no wmd's. so why in the hell do you think that the same people who worked for sr. , were signed on to work for jr.?( cheney,rumsfeld ect)- why did three retired(or fired) generals just testify in the senate that the iraq war war was a mistake from the beginning-and it's only getting worse? this is not about terrorism, it's personal.

I think that is a consiparcy for oil. All that oil that we got from over there. Tons and tons of oil that made tha gas priced go down. Also the sand industry over here has been suffering, we had to bring back lots of that.
Whatever dude. Grow up and smell the sausages.

juz for oil!!
thats why.. our honourable president.. Mr.bush has attacked Iraq... dont you understand his (quite cunning) plan?? he has attacked Iraq to use their oil wealth!! and we all know that Iraq is rich with its oil stuff... otherwise... whats the need to interfere in Iraq's affairs??
IT WAS VERY CLEAR THAT THE COURT WHICH HAS DECIDED DEATH PLENTY FOR SUDDAM WAS NOT AN INDEPENDENT COURT IT WAS UNDER THE PRESSURE OF USA'S GOVERNMENT !!
but it is verrrrrry verrrrrry unfair!! no one's execution is fair,(Saddam for example) but Bush, he is UNFORGIVABLE!!!hope he dies in an ugly box someday...
