What are the top ten things we have learned from our war with Iraq?

Question

Here are my top ten power points on this war.

1. The Administration never found Weapons of mass
destruction( Are we still looking for them)????

2. Iraq never ever posed an imminent nuclear threat.

3. There are other countries that posed a greater Nuclear
threat than Iraq.

4. That America needs to review and revamp its war policy.
One man should not have the power to decide whether or
not this country goes to war against another country.

5. We should never go to war on False Pretenses.

6. We can't topple every dictator in the world.

7. We need to engage the international community.

8. Terrorism is a global problem

9. Christians and Moslems need to learn more about each
other. Our presence in Iraq is not welcome by most.

10. We need to pray and repent of our sins and pray for our
troops every single day while they are over there fighting
in a very hostile environment. AMEN.

Answer 1

Definitely #4. One man shold never have that much power, with the exception of Jesus Christ!

Answer 2

1. The Administration never found Weapons of mass
destruction( Are we still looking for them)???? No we just found chemical agents used to make biological weapons, cleaned hospitals and schools of weapons barracks, and captured more deadly weapons than any civilian will ever know.

2. Iraq never ever posed an imminent nuclear threat. Yeah nethier does Iran.

3. There are other countries that posed a greater Nuclear
threat than Iraq. And Iran is HQ of Hezballah, a terrorists cell more dangerous than Al Qaeda, and N. Korea who is being contained by S. Korea, our allie, sorta.

4. That America needs to review and revamp its war policy.
One man should not have the power to decide whether or
not this country goes to war against another country. Worked well for Washington, Roosevelt, Truman. Besides funding was approved by congress, and everyone was all for it when it started. Now the flip floppers want to back out support because popular opinion fell.

5. We should never go to war on False Pretenses. I don't know, Saddam commiting Genocide, kicking weapons inspectors out of his reactors, and selling small arms to terrorists/militas in his country seems like a good reason.

6. We can't topple every dictator in the world. We don't need to topple, just support there immediate removal at any costs.

7. We need to engage the international community. Yeah, because the UN is so successful in there efforts in... umm, wait a second I know this....Oh yeah giving out powdered milk.

8. Terrorism is a global problem. Any America and UK are the only ones who care, (exception to those 61 countrys who sent troops to Iraq)

9. Christians and Moslems need to learn more about each
other. Our presence in Iraq is not welcome by most. Let bigones be bigones, but when they blow up our neighbors we need to blow them up. Please state the difference : Christians and Radical Islamic extremeists need to learn more about each other.

10. We need to pray and repent of our sins and pray for our
troops every single day while they are over there fighting
in a very hostile environment. AMEN. Very Very Freakin True.

Now I know you will never agree with any of these but 10, but that doesn't change the fact that they are true.

Answer 3

1. Despite the fact that we found over 500 WMD (and I personally saw two of them) you will still lie and say we never found any.

2. Nobody ever said they did.

3. Why are you obsessing with nuclear threat? This was never the reason we went into Iraq - and you know it.

4. Sounds like a guaranteed way to lose the next war by default.

5. You should not oppose the war on false pretenses.

6. We don't try. But why do you support tyranny?

7. The 'international community' does nothing but complain if we do nothing - and complain if we do. And countries like Germany and France will places their financial ties to Saddam as more important than ethics. Should we allow this attitude to guide our foreign policy?

8. Yes it is. But only the US Republican party is willing to do anything about it.

9. True. In fact most of us who have seen Islam in action are the ones who are concerned. Of course, you have to remember that conservative Islam has no interest in learning about us - they want us to convert to their religion or die. And our presence in Iraq is accepted by most Iraqis as necessary. The people who want us to leave 'right now' are those who want the elected government overthrown so they can become dictators.

10. We need to pray that people like yourself would listen to what those of us who have served in Iraq have to say.

8-We need to get out now or plan to stay for years to come. We can't compromise
9-It is time for a new President.
10-The media are even worse than we thought.
