If you are serving in or supporting the Iraq war are you helping or hurting US and the World?

Question

Since US is all volunteer and "just following orders" was not a valid defense for war crimes at Nurnberg I doubt that will work when the depth and breadth of our crimes regarding Iraq become known. Bush tried to opt out of many courts and treaties that would hold US soldiers accountable internationally almost as soon as he got in office. Is it possible they knew something? Blackwater atrocities and US soldier atrocities are covered up every DAY a few are prosecuted to keep the media renegades at bay but it is the tip of the iceberg.

our presence alone in Iraq is an atrocity

antonia may want to check his facts regarding Tsunami response and follow thru...we are not the good samaritans to the rest of the world as you seem to still be delusional enough to believe

Answer 1

The war is over since April 2003, when the entire Iraqi forces where dissolved. Now its a money making scheme of 190,000 private "Security" mercenaries, like Blackwater and a justification for the Pentagon to get a 1 Trillion budget, bigger, than what the rest of the world spends on military combined.

Answer 2

in case you undretook the missino of worldwide peace, the you should complete it in complete. you are able to't bypass away it one million/2 way. whether it grew to become into suitable to bypass to Iraw or not is a query altogether diverse, yet as quickly as you have committed it, then there is not any going decrease back. Us will ought to stay in Iraq untill the full peace technique is performed in complete and non violent domocracy is universal in Iraq; elections in suitable way being helpd and a slow governmebt comes into ability and keeps to be consistant. No backing ups.

Answer 3

You seem to have more access to whats going on in Iraq than us other mere mortals, would you care to post links to the information instead of trying to cast aspersions on the honor and integrity of the fine American men and women who are serving and protecting their country, so litte turds like you have the freedom to post hate rants trying to make the U.S. Military look like the nazi iii reich.

Your mentality is the same as the dumb people in the 1960 / 1070s who used to stand and spit at members of the U.S. military and accuse them all of being "Baby-Killers" for doing the job their democratically elected government sent them to do in Vietnam.

Answer 4

We are suppose to be helping the world. You need to realize that the people in the military are fighting for this country and following orders. So your helping/hurting question need not follow that direction.

Answer 5

i support the armed forces, im joining because i lost family in the 9-11 attack, and to protect the freedom that people have as human beings.

Answer 6

you are helping the world because we help people who is the first country 2 give when disaster strikes other countries america is!

Answer 7

The view in other countries is that America is trying to police the world so in that sense it is hurting you

Answer 8

part of being in the military is following orders ... if you want to blame someone, blame the ones giving the orders

not our service men and women

Answer 9

I would think more the US with all its borrowing to pay for this war. Interest will hurt and you will be paying for this war even when its over.

**Soldiers are just doing their job.
