Does the war in Iraq address the root causes of terrorism against the US?

Question

That IS the current reason we're there, correct? Fight them there so we won't fight them here.

Answer 1

Not at all. They are already here. Fighting them there suggests all the terrorists in the world are in Iraq. That is moronic to suggest.

the war in Iraq does NOTHING to address the root cause of terrorism against the US. In fact, it will increase terrorism against the US.

Answer 2

each and every warfare is fought for some objectives set earlier hand. The warfare in Iraq became also began with 2 objectives and those were (a million) elimination of guns of Mass Destruction (WMDs) and (2) elimination of Saddam authorities because of its help for terrorists. the first purpose ought to no longer be carried out because there have been NO WMDs what so ever and second purpose became no longer sufficiently vast to truly salary a warfare. US ought to get rid of Saddam with different ability like a coup, inner circulate by Iraqis etc (as US has finished it in different international places in the previous), so it really is chance-free to say that the surely purpose became to have actual administration over the oil wells and that has been carried out. warfare antagonistic to Terror is a commercial slogan thats why neither UN nor majority of the countries participated/ supported the warfare. the in hassle-free words international places that actively participated were those who had direct situation with the oil. The harmless civilians and US infantrymen being killed in Iraq is infact an act of terrorism and ought to stop. In each and each and every of the fairness each and each and every of the overseas forces should be despatched back from iraq and Iraqis should be enable loose to come back to a decision upon formation of their authorities and how they prefer to stay. No united states has any acceptable to intrude overseas's inner affairs as each and each and every of the countries in the international are equivalent and performance the right to stay freely and independently.

Answer 3

Nope.

The war in Iraq has generated more terrorists, destabilized a region, cost a fourtune in money and US soldier's lives, and has no sign of end. Meanwhile, we have failed to find Bin Laden.

Strike (above): following that line of thought, Clinton had a far better record of dealing with terrorism than Bush. 9/11 happened on Bush's watch after all... (For the record, I do not think that 9/11 is the fault of whoever happend to be President any more than any other cause...)

Answer 4

what is the root cause of terrorism against the US? i think being American makes it difficult to comprehend. especially if you suggest America has behaved like an imperialistic nation in the past, many people here would jump down your throat and accuse you of being all kinds of things. i think the war in Iraq is fanning the flames of terrorism against the US, even though we haven't had an attack since 9-11. but one was just foiled yesterday, so its not like they aren't trying.

Answer 5

Just as most people who call themselves Christians don't actually do what Christ taught, most Muslims don't do what Islam teaches.

The "root cause" of the terrorism against the US is the Muslims who actually do what Islam teaches. (if an "extremest" is someone who actually believes what their religion teaches, then yes, the "Muslim Extremists")

There are two ways to "protect" yourself from these people. (1) They convert to some other religion that does not teach them to kill all Jews and Christians. (don't hold your breath) or (2) Convince them that you are not going to back down from them. (just treat them like a typical "bully")

I think that the war in Iraq fulfills the second option. And I think that it is needed. I don't think that we can ever expect "Military Victory over Terrorism". We can only hope for military "control" over terrorism. Fighting terrorism will always be with us - same as the war on drugs, on poverty, education, etc.

The option is to die - I don't like that one.

Answer 6

What are the root causes of terrorism against the US?

Answer 7

Even though there is no connection whatsoever between 9-11 and the Iraq War. The Jew media will try to convince you that Al Qaeda is in Iraq though. Hilarious.

Answer 8

It doesn't matter how we got there, al-qaeda, Iran, and Syria have chosen it to be the battleground between western civilization and islamo-fascism, and it's there that we make our stand.

It does address the root cause because the root cause is sympathetic governments. Destroy them, and terrorism will be as marginalized and insignificant as the white supremacist movement.

Answer 9

You are correct sir. The administration is having us think that the moment we leave Iraq the terrorists will be buying plane tickets to the United States and loading their luggage with car and suicide bombs.

Answer 10

Let Bush tell it we're not over there because of 9/11.
Why are we over there again? Is it any of our business, the reason that we're over there?
