How do you folks feel about the two million poor Iraqis that have become refugees due to US action there? Bad?

Question

The biggest tyrant Iraq has had and has is GW Bush don't you think. For an unelected person to destroy their lives. He may be elected in The US but he is NOT in Iraq.

The only war they are fighting is the US invasion. There is no other war there. "If they can fight their own war......" Different planet mentally a lot of you.

"Political prisoners...." Political bull propaganda more like. The US did not save Iraq from anything at all but destroys it on false information. I'm truly amazed at the ignorance here.

Saddam only killed opponents and there was NO mass killing of civilians as there is under Bush.

Answer 1

I feel really saddened and I wish the UN will go and sort it out because the Americans can't. They are just digging the hole deeper and deeper and getting under.

Answer 2

We should withdraw all our troops from Iraq they are being killed week after week and for what purpose, just to keep a puppet government in office. Everything that's happening out there is starting to look like another Vietnam and we all know what happened there.Will we wait until the death rate of our lads rise to the Vietnam statistics and then withdraw achieving nothing whatsoever
Wake up we have already learned our lesson before in similar so called wars.
I feel sorry for the Iraqi people, this war was forced upon them

Answer 3

As a fellow citizen of this earth, I am so sorry for them and all people displaced due to military conflicts.

I wish I had an easy answer or any answer for that matter to fix the situation. Or at least assist them.

Of course if I were the ultimate deity for a day, I'd make the world a peaceful place to live.

Answer 4

I feel fine with it. I really think they are better off without Saddam. If they don't get with the program they are going to wind up just like they were with Saddam. Now they have a window of opportuntity a chance for a better life. But the window is closing.

They are lucky I was not president. I would not have risked our ground troops to get rid of Saddam or risk them to try to give them chance to build a new country. I would have torched the entire country with nuclear weapons as a warning to anyone else that wants to threaten us. There wouldn't be 2 million refugees there wouldn't even be 1 million left alive.

Quit whining and get with the program. Let's hope the Iranians see the light before it becomes necessary to nuke them. I think the U.S. has learned their lesson in Iraq. Bomb them back to the stone age, and leave them to live in caves.

Answer 5

Mmm, lets just say this. The thousands of iraq`s in the mass graves didn`t have this choice under Saddam.

Answer 6

What if some big powerful country (like china for example) were to decide that democracy is bad, and that communism is really the way to go. So they decide to come over here and "help" us by starting communism. Not helpful if it involves killing people, sending me and my family crawling desperately for some other godforsaken place, causing more public mayhem and violence than before, etc. So yes, i feel bad.

Answer 7

i feel bad for them. I think what's happening to them is just as tragic as any casualty (or other negative effects) of war that happen all over the world when people with power fight each other.

Answer 8

i cannot answer your question.

i feel bad for the refugees who had to leave due to terrorists infecting their state. and no, i do not mean US armed forces, i mean those "insurgents" the media loves to write about. they're not insurgents, they're mostly foreigners from other countries who've come there to try to drive us out. from the looks of your question, they've succeeded in your mind.

Answer 9

Weren't they both political prisoners and refugees under Saddam?

Answer 10

As with anyone that has been caught up in a struggle that is they have not chosen themselves. I feel concerned. As for the dead...the killing was mindless.
