$5000,000,000 for oil in Iraq? Why didn't we just NUKE Iraq and use the $$$ to pay off our national debt?

Question

This wasn't a war on terrorism...it was a secret political agenda for Cheney, the former CEO of Halliburton to pump oil & $$$$ from USA through IRAQ and back into his pockets...why didn't we just NUKE Iraq, give Bush & Co. however much those greedy slobs wanted and then pocket the majority of the rest for ourselves, the American public? With all the dead in Iraq, that adds up to the same death toll if we used nukes against them anyways! LOL

Answer 1

Works for me NUKE Iraq then we should take out Iran, I hate these Islamic extremist, and the stupid liberals in this country like Hillary Clinton, Nancy Polisi, and the rest of those left wing nut job democrats. Bill Clinton started this whole thing when he had the chance to capture Osama but he chickened out just like all Democrats during war time they always want to cut run and surrender. If we get a Democrat president we should just start making our women wear them head scarfs and surrender our freedom to all the Islamic extremist because democrats cut and run and chicken out when when faced with a war time situation. They would not have done a darn thing if they were in office if the WTC got bombed, they would have just sat there and did nothing and let happen again.

Answer 2

With Nukes nobody will really win.

Below is the link for a well made documentary.
Great comments by current and retired military personnel. This is important especially for those of us who have served or who are serving and also those of you with children as someday we may see a draft reinstated and we should all be clear on what we are fighting for.

Democrats and Repubs should lay down party politics and get serious about doing the right thing so that the country’s citizens and the country’s soldiers are not put in harms way unnecessarily. Very well made documentary and a little hard to want to face.

Answer 3

I am a bit embarrased to say I'm not fully updated on the war in Iraq and how the government works but I imagine if the US just simply nuked Iraq we would get nuked back from some other vindicative country. A chain reaction would inevitably erupt...pun intended.

Answer 4

Your somewhat precise !! We invaded a sovereign usa,,who did no longer attack us,, with out the approval of the united countries the place we pleaded our case..Our president ,mentioned we reserve the stunning to preemptively strike if we so chosen.. AND we DID! problem is we bite a pig interior the ***, so who's fault IS that ? And as far because of the fact the 20billion a month,,the U.S. isn't paying it,,foreigners that have bought our bonds are doing that..And in the event that they arrive to a variety the EURO is a extra perfect investment,, OUR dollar would be incredibly worth 29cents whilst we print all of the paper to pay them..And in case you think of the Iraqi govt. is going to fund their very own reconstruction,, i like to sell you a tablet you put in your gas tank that gets you l00miles in line with gallon of gas !! fascinated?? it incredibly is a unwinable conflict ,a sink hollow of lives and funds with out end.. yet now,,whilst we pass away,,Iran will take over Iraq!! we are the biggest fools ,,and time will practice it !!

Answer 5

I love it how moronic liberals always talk about Oil & Iraq. funny, we are not getting any oil from Iraq because freedom should not be taxed but it was the liberals that said we shoould steal oil from Iraq as a tax for the war. truth is, liberals fight for oil & money, the rest of us fright to set people free & protect America.

If we wanted to take oil from someone, we would just forclose on Mexico, they owe us billions & the pipeline would be easy to build. get a clue, turn off the Daily show & read a book not put out by MTV.

Answer 6

The so called national debt is nothing but folklore.Most of it represents the interest payments on the long bond,most of which is held by forien speculators.They never demand paymend,instead role the interest into the ballance and repeat the process.Its a gospel of fear politicians of both paties use to reach deeper into your pocket.

Answer 7

No don't talk "nuke" Iraq,your Conservative,be more tough,talk about nuking someone stronger,maybe Russia or China?

Answer 8

Hey dude, your missing a few 0's in your figure. The cost of the Iraq war is closer to $500,000,000,000 and growing fast.

Answer 9

Come on AL gore would of surrendered, and would you wife wear a burka? How about your mom and daughter?

When I was in the Navy I went to Pakistan, UAE, Bahrain, and Saudi Arabia. They treat women worst the dogs, and they have little personal freedom if your not one of the Princes.

So I think you need to go there so your eyes will be opened up to our enemies.

Answer 10

Saddam Hussein funded and harbored terrorists. he gassed his own villages. he had WMD's and if you don't believe it look at this http://www.snopes.com/photos/military/sandplanes.asp
and the money from the oil is going to be used to rebuild Iraq's economy that was destroyed by Saddam Hussein.and the death toll isn't anywhere close to what it would have been if we used nukes. you are a poor, misinformed soul.
