Well if the US is deficit and have 300 millions of people and they want to win in iraq, Why the US people is not willing to pay more taxes, send 3 millions of soliders to iraq to guard every corner of the country (US have 300 millions of people they even can lose 1 million of lives without a problem or risk to the country but we didnt see millions of volunteers go to the army like in WWII) ? Why not? The US people want war but they dont want to pay taxes for it? the US people want war but they dont want to risk their lives as they grampa did it? How they think that cant win to an enemy fully compromise with his cause? The USA have enough population to guard every meter of pipelines and every road, if is so important to win why not risk the life ? if the terrorist sacrifice their lives for their own cause? why the 300 millions of patriots dont do the same?

The "american" patriotism finish where the sacrifice begins?

Most Americans DO NOT want war, it's George Bush, the president, who wants war. He's the one sending out more troops and raising the taxes! we don't want war, but we goofed up by electing george bush as president, and we're stuck with him for another year!

Why is this called an American war? It was the United Nations who went to Both Iraq and Afghanistan.
If you feel this is such a good and moral war, why do you think the men of the United States should be there alone? How many people from you country are involved? Could be all, if you are from Iran or Syria much of their tax dollars are spent in Iraq also.

Well you should check your history first. There were not millions of volunteers for WWII... it was something called a draft and people were forced to go. Your comment about Americans wanting war just isnt true. Quite the contrary, this war is extremely unpopular with the American public. Our issue is with the policy though, not the troops. That being said, we are not in a huge hurry to run over their and join the fight, but we send plenty of aid to the troops who are already over there and spend a ton of tax dollars supporting those who are sent to fight. We do pay plenty of taxes, but we are not a socialist state and we believe in free enterprise so to keep our economy strong we have to balance military budget with internal issues to help with improvements at home as well. As for your comment that we could lose 1 million people and not have a problem... I dont know where you are from, but we appreciate human life and we are not structured like an ant colony of mindless drones. We do not guard "every inch of Iraq" because it isnt practical. Regardless of if you think the war was a mistake or not, we are in there now and have to resolve it. The reason "the enemy" is willing to sacrifice their lives is the same reason they are willing to sacrifice their women and children, its because they are crazy religious fanatics with no respect for human life, not to mention they have no other option because thier technology sucks. It isnt like we are over their fighting for some sort of idealism or anything, they are killing themselves out of a blind fanaticism, we are there for different reasons so it isnt like we have a "cause" to fight for. You should take a history class along with your english classes before you question our resolve.

I think that you are assuming quite alot. If the American people believed in this war, they would line up to fight. But we are not in Iraq by our choice. We are there because we were deceived by our current administration that Iraq was involved with 911. Let another nation set foot on our soil to try to take away our freedom, and you will see them be destroyed. The main problem we have right now is that we have an idiot in the presidency, and unfortunately, 2 more years of him. We sent him a clear message, and he still won't listen. I did not believe in this war from the outset. If we had stayed focused on Afghanistan, Al-Qaeda would be defeated by now. We have the same resolve that we have always had. Unfortunately, what we lack, at least for the time being, is leadership. That will change.

Shut the f*ck up.

Oh yeah, I want to see how your Democrat President handle the war. Gee, I wonder how long it'll take for the mofo to consider a military withdrawl? If a military withdrawl is done overnight, would other country's perception of the US be better or worst? If a withdrawl takes time, would people in this country comtinue to ***** because their President is taking too long for a withdrawl? That's all people do now-a-days... all they do is ***** and nothing more.

Before downing the guy about his grammar, you should check your's. It's funny how so many can down another person's grammar but yet their grammar is f*cked up as well.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and assume that you are not from America originally (judging by your grammar usage).

I have never met anyone that truly wanted war. Also, taxes are an unavoidable fact of life.

I think you need to stop by one of our military bases and tell them that you feel they don't want to risk their lives. The US military is filled with people who voluntarily joined the armed services in order to protect our country and everyone who lives here. They are making the ultimate sacrifice to ensure freedom for the rest of us.

Americans are not against paying taxes. They are against not having more control of how the money is spent.

We have very high regard and respect for our soilders but we are skeptical as to why we are in Iraq's affairs.

Americans question the validity of a cause instead of having blind faith, like the faith of what we may get after we die.

BTW What are woman granted if they die for a cause? To be one of the virgins?

Now what occurs as quickly as we develop taxes.. all of us comprehend the economic device starts to say no because it did whilst Clinton did it. all of us comprehend that frequently going on wellbeing care isn't the thank you to circulate... look on the standard of care united states of america's that use it have... It takes weeks to get right into a professional... the place as in my case 2 years in the past, i replaced into in my docs on Monday, a professional on Tuesday and by early here week, i replaced into under the knife. does not take place like that for the time of Canada... they arrive right here. different than having to alter careers hence of NAFTA, i'm doing notably stable precise now...

Because there are some people in this country who feel they still should get something for nothing. And when it comes to sacrifices, they want others to do it for them, and when it comes to wars, no one wants to be stuck paying the bill or higher taxes.

What it boils down to?

Simple selfishness, greed, and ignorance.

First off, just becuase his grammer is poor doesn't mean he is an idiot. English just isn't his first language.

Americans hate taxes and mankind loves war. I don't think any more has to be said.
