Is it right to blame Bush for all of the terrorist acts in Iraq?

Question

I think so. After all, there was no terrorism in Iraq before he chose to invade and destroy the central authority.

Answer 1

Bush has the blood of every American and Iraqi on his hands! Who started this war? Who wanted this war? Bush had the unmitigated gaul in his state of the union to say "this isn't the war we wanted but its the one we have". This took insincerity to a new level even for Bush. He started it, its his fault 100%!

Answer 2

Yes, Bush has a secret time machine and went back and made muhammad put all those violent parts in the koran, thus corrupting an otherwise peaceful religion and causing all the muslim terrorists to flood into Iraq and kill other muslims.
Now to get real, if you believe Iraq was such a great place to live under Saddam how do you explain all the mass graves and the million or so Iraqis that Saddam killed? You obviously don't remember the fact that Saddam was running terrorist training camps and was paying $20,000 each for the suicide bombers who murdered Israelis. It amazes me how liberals like you will make up any ignorant lie you can in your evil attempts to blame Bush for every bad thing in the world.

Answer 3

Iraq was just a warm vacation paradise before BUSH went in.

People were terrorized by Saddam and His sons. Everyone else and there families would be killed if they acted out of line. If you do any research people were being killed, raped, ect. all the time in Iraq before we went in. You should be blaming Iran for the surge in terrorists not Bush.

Was the attacks on the USS Cole Clinton's fault or the first World Trade Center bombings? Just because Clinton was in office? Did he cause that to happen or is what we are seeing in Iraq a continuation of the Jihad the Terrorists declared on the US in the 70's when Carter was in office. During his Presidency they were hijacking planes all of the time. Was that Carters fault? Or are there evil people who hate no matter what.

Answer 4

There was no "terrorism" there per se because the terrorists were Saddam's government! If mass murder, including from using WMD on Iraqi civilians, torture chambers, rape rooms and mass execution are not considered "terrorism", then nothing is "terrorism".

As for those that somehow choose to think Saddam had no links to terrorists, the evidence, both documented and via debriefings of Iraqi Intelligence, indicates a LONG history of a relationship with Al Qaeda, including the building of training facilities for them. I find it hard to fathom that anybody would insist on maintaining the lie there were no terrorists there.

I won't even get into the fact that terrorist numbers grew significantly when Clinton failed to retaliate against numerous terrorists attacks. This demonstration of weakness by the US elevated Osama's and Al Qaeda'a position.

Answer 5

No because the people executing the attacks could have made the choice not to, but you can blame him for the countless deaths of American soldiers and iraqi civilians. Also you can blame him for causing even more unrest in the middle east. I wonder how he sleeps at night knowing he destroyed one country and is screwing his own.

Answer 6

going to get screamed at by republicans but there is a fair amount of blame lying on Bush's shoulders

I will say that I do believe some terrorists/members of al qaeda were in Iraq but they aren't the problem now.

The problem lies in the conflict between the sunnis and shiite factions trying to control the new Iraq. America's presence is a hindrance to both sides, hence while fighting each other they'll take shots at the Americans as well.

While I don't condone Hussein's regime, I will say that the insurgency problem in Iraq will not be solved by Americans and their presence is only worsening the problem

Answer 7

Good question. I wish all the Republicans knew that before Bush there was no Al Quaida in Iraq. Reason why.........Saddam Hussein and Osama Bin Ladin did not like each other. They were religious rivals. Now Osama found his perfect opportunity to destroy more American lives and America's image. And for what????? Oil? WMD that were not found??? Iraq will never get better, and there is numerous countries dedicated to make Iraq and America miseralable in the middle east. Why go to America to kill Americans when you can just go to Iraq.

Answer 8

I have to say this....you people never give up....its wrong to blame terrorism on anybody but the terrorist that commit the acts....there is no provocation by any one person....they hate everybody who doesnt think like them and will do anything to destroy those that dont think like them...blame Bush?.....go do something with your life and quit whining so much......

Answer 9

Yes !!

A person is terrorist who kills the innonect peoples and is worse when he kills those peoples in their own land after invading it brutally...and even more worse that he is not only killing them but also holding control of their economical resourses like oil !

Answer 10

I agree with you. And instead of helping matters, the so-called "War on Terror" has actually exacerbated the global terrorist situation, because the war in Iraq has become a cause celebre among Muslim fundamentalists and now a whole new generation of terrorists is being bred as a result.
