Theoretically speaking - if we didn't "fight them there" what would our country look like today?

Answer 1

If we had not invaded Iraq the USA would "look like" it does today.

I really can't beleive that people think Iraq was a threat to us or that people think if we hadn't invaded Iraq that terrorists or Muslims would have taken over the United States of America! How stupid are these people and what little faith in the US Armed Forces and the American people they must have.

Answer 2

theoretically speaking, WHO are we "fighting there". We defeated the Iraqi army in about a minute and a half. The question is why did we attack the Iraqi military in the first place? So the question then is "who are they"? There was NO terrorist network in Iraq prior to the invasion.

Answer 3

About the same.....there would be about 3600 more young men alive, and another 20 or 30 thousnd that still had all their limbs.....Saddam would have died of old age.....and we could given Pakistan the TRillion dollars for the capture of Bin Laden

Answer 4

A third world country

Answer 5

Probably the same, but not for long.

Looks like we will be fighting them here after all.

Answer 6

About the same as today but with more security hassles and less freedoms.

Answer 7

Israel. Where everyone has to keep looking over his shoulder and wondering if the terrorists will be setting off another bomb to kill innocent civilians.

Answer 8

The Mexican border
