To those posting answer's saying Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11, then pray tell, who did? Where did these killers come from? I do not want to hear it was all about wmd. I do not want to hear it is about oil. ffs if that were the case, we could had fought over that before this war ever started. Innocent civilians? My bum! More than half those people over there are burning our BEAUTIFUL flag, hate America and would kill you in a heartbeat because you are American or because you are a Christian. The other half want freedom from these terroist's, they want a life full of peace, they want a democracy. The women over there do not want to be raped, nor shut up from their beliefs and wants, etc etc.To give someone peace and to give someone a most wanted democracy will not take over night and it sure in the hell will not be an easy thing to do. Those troops over there are over there because they believe in freedom. They were not forced to sign up for the military! America: Love it or leave it

My brother and I have been emailing one another for the most part of this morning and he knows what the truth is...he was there...this is what he has added......
You have to remember I was there when the war broke out, and we knew who the enemy combatants were,.....now its a whole new ball game,......guerilla warfare,....insurgency,....but its Bush's fault,......yeah right. If it weren't for Bush and his hard-line tactics,.....we'd done had another attack. Remember about 3 months ago we busted a plot to blow up planes over the Atlantic,...it was his tactics that played a role in foiling their plot
