It's a waste of tax money, and their problems are not our business anyway

Yes Mary because...
Saddam paid every family of a suicide bomber $10,000. Though he wasn't the largest supporter of terrorism he certainly backed them.
He was the easiest target to beat and save American lives by making Iraq the catalyst for political change throughout the Middle East.
A free Iraq with all Iraqi citizens receiving their fare share of oil revenue checks (as in Kuwait) will destabilize the Iranian government causing a thereat from within their own country.
Destabilizing Iran automatically weakens the foundation of the Syrian government.
These are the 2 largest contributors to terrorists. This has been the strategy from day one but the current administration cannot come right out and speak these words.
This will cause the monies flowing like a river to Al-Quaeda, Hezbollah, and Ham mas to be reduced to a dripping faucet.
The war in Iraq has been about undermining the terrorist supporting countries of the entire Middle East and is a logical step to end the source of money to terrorist organizations.
Once again...a free Iraq is their worst nightmare.
God Bless

this is a meaningless war. it was used as a distraction by our so called leaders so we have to trust them one way or another like it or not. like it or not, Iraq didn't have anything to do with 9/11, and it was truly none of our concern about what was happening in side another country. we used excuses which we couldn't back up as we went in, and now what? people, flesh and blood, souls are being ripped from a mans body, doesn't matter which side. if someone believes that this war is something to be supported, why don't we strap them with a m16 and send them off to the war instead of the many husbands, and sons and eyes of the innocent? these soldiers, Iraqi or American, are our fallen angels. it doesn't matter what we believe, in the end, we are just another soul taken away in a act of war. these are the fortunes of war, you will get nothing in return.

F __CK NO. Bush is synonymous with the word DumbA$$. Like someone earlier basically implied, its about oil. The reasons for this war change faster than your average person changes underwear. Next week the "official" reason for going to war is because the president's balls itch. All this money that has been wasted could have easily paid for R&D into new energy alternatives. I bet most of you did NOT know that Brazil as of last year is no longer dependent on petroleum? Makes us look pretty stupid eh?

clueless_nerd, the name fits! here are your reasons!
yes, we have to finish. the real question is should we have gone in the first place....it seems no. however, now that we've started we have to finish. there is too much into it and we've lost so many soldiers. their deaths should not be in vein! there will always be people in that part of the world that hate us and our ways of life, this war will not change that, i think the plan is though, to let them handle those types over there! when they have a working democratic system there, they will be allies of us and be able to deal with problems that affect us and them without us being involved! also, with them as allies it shoiuld make oil business between us much, much easier! and more benficial to both parties! in summary going was a mistake at that time, but leaving now would be a much bigger mistake!

NO! We aren't fighting a war, we are fighting Iraqi's who are fighting over the power to control the government! It's a civil war that we should have never let start, much less get involved!

If we continue it in the same hamstrung pc way, no. If we are willing to actually fight hard and break the will of the enemy to win, absolutely.

Not unless there's a reason to, and I haven't heard one:
WMDs -- searched for, not found
Sadaam Hussain -- Dead
Democracy -- Installed
Iraq can't defend their own country -- it's THEIR country, not ours to defend. Train them sure, die for them, no.
"If we don't fight them there we'll fight them here" -- The DUMBEST one I've heard. They already ARE here. 9/11? Remember?
I would like for someone, anyone to tell me what is to be gained by staying there?
BL, you did NOT answer that question!

We have no choice. long ago God said in Zac that it will be real bad in the last days.
--------zac 14:-------------------------------------------------------------
12.And this shall be the plague wherewith the LORD will smite all the people that have fought against Jerusalem; Their flesh shall consume away while they stand upon their feet, and their eyes shall consume away in their holes, and their tongue shall consume away in their mouth.

Sounds like a nuke exchange will happen in that area, and all who hate "Israel' will be hit in one hour,on one day that will be remembered forever.
