When will Americans wake up to the FACT that Iraq is a failure?

Question

All that we were told in the beginning has been false.

-No WMD's
-No Iraqi oil funds paying our attack.
-No stability in the region (Iran is having a nuclear field day and capitalizing or the regional chaos Bush created)
-No 9/11 connection

So exactly what has Bush accomplished?

P.S. they just blew a bomb in the Iraqi house of ministry.

I guess the Texas fratboy chimp didn't count on resistance.

Answer 1

Most Americans are against this war now, and the only things that have been accomplished are that a lot of people are dead, Iraq is war torn, the US is politically divided, and a few people have gotten richer from war related contracts with the US government.

CBS News Poll. April 9-12, 2007
"Do you approve or disapprove of the way George W. Bush is handling the situation with Iraq?"

ALL adults: Approve 30% Disapprove 66%
Unsure 4%

Republicans: Approve 64% Disapprove 30%
Unsure 6%

Democrats: Approve 9% Disapprove 90%
Unsure 1%

Answer 2

What do we know, all our views are from paid news analyst and paid polls. What they tell us is one thing, what they don't tell us is the scary part. Iraq is a failure, in our eyes perhaps, but what is the long term goal that the allies are trying to achieve, these people are plotting for another day, the causalities are the sacrifice, it's in our teaching you can not achieve without sacrificing something. The allies sacrifice with the lost of personnel, monies & machinery. The Iraqis sacrifice's are the transition of power, plenty deaths & destructions of material, views of life & religion.
So one day & either way of the out come, there will be heroes , martyrs and a change of life. Peace will come and one day the fabricated stories will come about. So all this killing is just part of the story, one day it will be forgoten and forgiven.

Answer 3

I totally agree with you that Iraq is a failure, and that it was going to be a failure, no matter what we did. However, I will say that everything that is going on in Iraq right now is OUR fault. You would have to agree with that as well. Since it is OUR fault, we need to finish what we started. Yes, this is all Bushes war, but we cannot leave these people to fend for themselves, it would be unethical. If we leave now, Iraq will become a full blown civil war, and there would be totally and complete choas.

Answer 4

Americans are in touch with their sons, brothers, husbands and fathers who are actually fighting this war.

The American People KNOW this war is a failure. It's the government who chooses to IGNORE that fact and add more fuel to the fire by increasing troops!

McCain saying that Baghdad is safe when the Green Zone has been infiltrated has all but finished him. People who vote for him now, might as well have Bush stay in the whitehouse.

Answer 5

the USA government thinks the average persons IQ is about 50%,they should have rallies against Americans involvement

Answer 6

Yes!!!

I agree with this. When will Bush listen to his people?? We want out of this more than we want anything.

Answer 7

The illegal war in Iraq was and still is a failure from the very beginning! And look at the mess he made there! Here are the accomplishments of what this turned out:
1. Over 3,000 soldiers' lives have been wasted, with thousands more egregiously injured,
2. More than 600,000 Iraqis (civilians, mostly, as well as security forces, and police officers) died in that mess,
3. Deaths from daily bomb attacks unleashed by the ever-violent and lethal insurgency,
4. This silly war has already caused terror threats from al-Qaeda and affiliated insurgency groups; and,
5. Bush's folly (referring to the war) caused an international backlash.
As for the facts you highlighted in your question, they ring true, and I have to agree with you on them.

Answer 8

Didn't you ask this question before and I debunked every one of your fabrications with proof otherwise. I guess if you repeat a lie often enough it eventually becomes accepted as 'fact'.

Answer 9

The American Public won't be woken up as our media are cleverly blasting non-stop the 'hot' news of Nicole Smith, Imus and the Duke 'rape' case into our homes to get every American distracted and away from news of American soldiers' deaths on a daily basis and of the continuing bombings that are resulting in deaths of innocent Iraqi citizens.

Answer 10

You do not seem to be educated about the real problems in Iraq between the Sufi, Sunnis,Shia,and Kurds. This is their WAR, and we are there (the US) peacekeeping force with our allies to keep them insurgents from mass murdering the Iraqis peasants! D.A.!
The fight is about WHO will get the country---IRAQ! Before you make a infantile,, wahah statement, you really should read the facts first.
I love Bush!! He is a man who has cajones! unlike Kerry-no cajones-or Edwards--he's a girl in a suit; or any of the other supposed leaders who vyed for the spot and lost fair and square.

Answer 11

firts of all SUPORT THE TROOPS

its because the fact that they don't want to give up the "hope" it such a horrible thing they did what they wanted to do and it was to get Saddam out since they got that done they got greedy

in another way if we did get out it would be a total war between the different religious-political groups yet the ones paying would be the poor and innocent if you could say that

they should just sale it divide the country and sale the pieces off to the other nations around there then give the money that was gained to the "poor" so they can establish life the problem would be the mountain regions with no water if they would only "edit" the land and make man made lakes or dams or something
