What exactly is wrong with wanting the US to lose the Iraq war?

Question

I believe the Iraq war is an unprovoked war of aggression, against a country that was no threat to the United States. It violated a binding UN ceasefire, and is therefore illegal.

What is wrong with wanting someone who started an unjust illegal war to lose it?

liberalshate - could you please answer the question?

You can hope they'll ban free speech all you want Alex, it ain't going to happen. I've said this war was unjust for over four years, and I've been on the side of justice my entire life. So I'm not going to change.

Answer 1

I think you're right.

It's not that I want to see the U.S. "lose", so much as I think that no matter how this war comes out, we would have "lost" in some sense. We've lost our morality, if we're willing to support an invasion of a country that wasn't bothering us personally.

Unquestioning obedience is for slaves.

That's great so when the kid next door constently threatens to burn your house down and keeps lighting matches and blowing them out, do you just ignore him or do you fear you'll come home to sticks and burned debris some day so you call the police and get a restraining order and if that doesn't work what do you do while your wife and kids are home alone while you travel.

Get a life liberal. If you're an American and you want your country to lose then you should be deported. America is a sovereign nation and we have a right to defend ourselves no matter what the communist / terrorist UN says.

GOD bless America.
