Why does America make a big seen in Iraq and then invite the presedent of the nation beside it to come and speak when we were fighting Iraq in the first place so that they don't come??? Also, why are we still fighting them now??? Who are we to set up there government??? Is it all because we need there oil??

Actually, AMERICA did not invite Ahmadinejad...the president of Columbia University invited him. That's part of living in a free society. Sometimes people do things that the government would rather that they didn't do...and yet they can still do it without fear of the government sanctioning them.

The Iranian president was asked to come here by Columbia University. It doesn't really matter anyway becasue the US has an open border and anyone with a proper passport and visa can visit us.
We are not fighting Iraq. We are fighting maybe 5% of the population who are terrorists. Most of the people in Iraq are happy that we are there protecting them. Whether we are there about oil or not doesn't really matter. There are soilders over there fighting with thier lives to help these people have a better life. The soilders don't care why the government says they are there. They only want to help the innocent people who have no choice but to live in a war torn country.
We are there becuase we are the only ones who stepped up and took on the challenge of freeing the world from the threat of Sadam and his tiranical rule. The motives for entering Iraq are not the reason why we are there now. Those people deserve a fighting chance. They have been controlled thier entire lives and they are finally getting a chance to have some of the freedoms we have here.
Freedom is not free and we have always been a fighting country.

OK First of all-America didnt invite the PM of Iran to come to the United States. The head of Columbia University invited him to visit the campus while he was here for a conference at the United Nation. The United States isnt fighting Iran. We're fighting the insurgents in Iraq. We really dont have any business trying to set up a government for any nation. The people in charge in Iraq dont seem to mind that we're there. We're supposed to be there to help. I wish we could pull all of our young men and women out of Iraq and let them fend for themselves,but no one asked me. Offhand I would say we are there for the oil-but-that's just my opinion.

Actually the stink is about the president of Iran our country has often allowed many controversial people to speak. He also spoke at the united nations but he was denied access to ground zero. America was based on Freedom of Speech and that means we even let douche bags talk.

No, it's because we have a monkey that let his daddy buy that
office for him. Votes didn't mean crap. Now that he's in charge this country is only asking for more trouble. What do you think his solution is going to be when we get attacked again? He gets a ride to his airplane so he can watch everyone else get blown up! Some leader!!
