That is a very good question and I'm sure a lot of people hold different view points.
America has been in the Middle East since the 1950's, taking over their oil companies. Then Mohammad Mossadegh nationalized it so the Americans were bitter so they overthrew Mossadegh. When Iranians realized what America had done they were angry, at first the Americans were their friends because they wanted the British to leave the Middle East alone. Then they were their enemy because they took over their oil and exploited their resources. America has wanted to take over the Middle East for its resources for a long time. And since it has succeeded a few times it has left people in Middle Eastern countries, like Iran poor and angry. I don't blame them, I would also be angry if that happened to my country. So then 9-11 happened and it gave the goverment a perfect excuse to declare war on Iraq because Americans were angry and they wanted revenge. So then the goverment says we "have" to fight this war againts "terrorism". Sure they blew up two of our buildings, but we blew up two of their countries, they killed thousands of innocent people, but we have killed millions. It's like World War I when Austria-Hungary wanted to invade Serbia for its resources and a small Serbian rebell group killed Franz Ferdiand, their artchduke so it gave Austria-Hungary an excuse to declare war on Serbia. I want the war to stop and I want the American soldiers to come home safely. My friend's brother is out there fighting the war and I can't stand to see my friend or her family worried for him.

There's so much we don't know about it. People talk more about Britney Spear's shaved head then the war. Based on the information I do know about it, I believe that it is not justified. We dived head first into something that now, we can't get out of it. We didn't even think twice about it, or come up with a successful plan. We just went. We fighting and trying to help a country that had problems since the beginning of their existance. We're trying to fight terror. WTF is that. We're trying to fight a freakin idea? That's like trying to fight hate. It'll never end. If we finally do leave Iraq, it will just fall back into the way it was. Why don't we try fighting hunger. That's not an idea, but an actual problem in our own country, and we can fix.

right this is the element, i did no longer accept as true with going over there in the 1st place, yet I do accept as true with the actuality that we can't set a timeline now. we would desire to stay till we end what we began. it relatively is basically that straightforward. We made that mistake the 1st time we've been there. If we go away now, issues would be extra screwed up than as quickly as we began. If somebody got here to you and suggested i visit attempt a gun at you're you kinfolk yet there's a ninety 5% danger that it's going to pass over and a 5% danger that it's going to hit you or a member of your loved ones might you enable them to tug the set off or might you do some thing to stop them in the previous they have been on condition that danger. yet wait, it maximum likly would not be you kinfolk that replaced into destroyed via that 3-5% of the weapons we could no longer account for for this reason what does it count.

Yes,
saddam was a burtal dicator who had no problem using chemical weapons on his people.
He supported Muslim terrorists,
a) The explosive expert from the 1st WTC attack fled to Iraq.
b) The Muslim terrorist mastermind behind the group that killed Klingoffer was found in Iraq
c) With the food for oil program he strave his people and use it to fund sucide bombers to on Israel.
WMD with the information we had at the time it was believe that saddam had them. Demcrates agree to that and Clinton even fired missles into Iraq worried about them.
Now here we are.
3 free elections women have the right to vote and it is getting tough.
Liberals want to run away.
Which is going to give a clear signal Muslim terrorists we will run away.
We need that in Africa after Blackhawk down and got 9/11.

YES= for 2 major reasons. 1.= To destroy alquida THERE not here. 2. Some time ago our satelight picked up 8 mobile launchers. our forces captured 5=4 were empty 1 was stripped yet 3 are missing. Insane Husane's son killed 5,000 kurds in one week. Are the other 3 mobile launchers loaded with missles full of poison seeing Iraq was the 2nd richest country in the world back then , when the leader was taunting the free world.

Are you asking the Shia audience or the Sunni audience?
They are the ones that can give positive answers in the affirmative.
Anyone on the outside including the "coalition" nations can't say anything but no unless that've chosen one of those two sides to be the "winner".

Of course it isn't.
And, have you seen the U.S. Congress declare war? Nope---they didn't in Korea, and they didn't in Viet Nam, either.
But, men love war---it's the game they so love to play. So, they'll find any excuse. And, since George Bush and his dad and the whole Bush outfit are owned by Saudis, they certainly can't declare war on Saudi Arabia, which would have been legally justified on Sept 12, 2001.
Everything else, and all other wars after WW2, are just about $ and the war machine making more money, which they are doing.

I believe it is very justifiable. It might not have been handled the right way, but we should be there, and stay until the job is completed.

If we had not gone over there. They would have been over to take over. Like they have already tried to do. Would you rather be fighting on their soil or ours?
