Why are our soldiers REALLY fighting in this war?

Question

With so much information and news out now, we should all be more aware of the wars/ rumors of war. But let's think a minute: We were lied to about why we went to war, let alone the fact that there was not, according to the our Constitution, an official DECLARATION of WAR. Think, Congress did not declare war, Bush did; but Congress let him move forward. Now ask yourself why? (9/11) was a kickoff to the rumor of war.
The news we get on our basic TV stations is "news reporting" not real news. Want real news? Some of my sources: Mosiac.com, LinkTV.com as well as link TV on satellite, and Presstv.com

Answer 1

We are fighting this war because we let 9/11 scare us into unquestioningly following an idiot who was thinking more about oil companies then men dying.

We're in it now because we now recognize that we broke it and should take at least some responsibility in fixing it.

News sources: NPR, BBC, CNN

Answer 2

Our troops are over in Iraq fighting Bushs war. they have to satisfy his ego! Bush hates to lose. This war should have never started. Some people will say that the troops are fighting for our freedom. Freedom from terrorism. We had that here long before the war.Our troops were sent over to Iraq to find weapons, which were never found.And instead of getting out of there, we stayed and it ended up into a full blown war! Innocent people are getting killed and for what? This war will never be won! It is another Viet Nam and Korea
What price glory?
