Iraq was a soverign nation and I feel you just cant go in remove a head of state just because you thought he tried to kill you father. This war by the time it end will cost you 24 trillion dollars yes you. Not Bush and his friends. You, your children, your children childrens and so on. So keep waving that red white and blue. The whole world is laughing at you. Thats why the dollar will be less than the mexican peso soon.

If you are in the military and you are a private, your SGT tells you to rape or kill an innocent child would you follow his orders?

fwf stop living in the past, France can defend itself. Stop watching fox news and the O'reilly factor. Don't forget we are in Nato so an attack on one is an attack on all in the EU.

Britteny France did not want to get involved in the war because it was wrong. Are you crazy? Look at the American economy now, You had a surplus when clinton left office. You still got sancation on cuba but trade with russia and china because you know they will fight back. Always picking on the small guy. (cuba) Bully

Why when others countries or people disagree with you, you bring up past wars how you help them, but you don't bring up slavery, you just want to pretend it never happen. France banned slavery from the get go, so stfu.

The troops don't really have a choice and don't make the decisions. Bush or Congress orders it. If you don't obey orders you get put in Leavenworth. No real choice by the grunts.

Your one of many ignorant people I meet. Let me ask you this: If France was under attack, what would be be the first country asked for military assistance? Russia, China, N.Korea, Iran, or Iraq? It would be the United States. You represent words I cant say here. EDIT: Amazing on your train of thought. I'm sure you are a leader and influence in your country. Please stay there, I'm sure you can prevent an invasion like France did against the Nazi's. Build another Maginot Line. EDIT(2): 6'3 135 lbs? your a wimp and a snot nosed American protester.

No considering there wasn't against the regulation commited. yet once you elect to pursue the problem than you may would desire to flow after all human beings in congress besides (which includes Democrats), and Obama and might even would desire to flow lower back as some distance lower back by way of fact the Clinton administration. do no longer forget approximately the CIA and different international companies that testified to having intelligence bearing directly to WMD. The record is going on and on.

Glad that you are with the rest of the frogs where you belong. The only french military unit worth anything is the foreign legion. Note a unit made up mostly of foreigners. Right now France IS NOT a part of NATO. France withdrew from NATO because of differences with Germany, Britain, and the US.

I suggest you recommend that to your government. I worked with the French Foreign Legion in the Gulf War excellent soldiers, sometimes a little aggressive but excellent non the less. I believe some of them are currently serving in Afghanistan right now, why not contact them and ask the same question.

what would the charges be? the fact that Iraq is a sovereign nation has nothing to do with anything. any country can invade any country they want to and for any reason. take for example France they invade oh Morocco,Vietnam,Laos,Cambodia,several kingdoms in Africa and still exert their will on many of the places they invaded does anyone cry foul about them and many other European nations doing the same thing? you understand very little about the world.

If you have a problem with the president then you are certainly free to express that, but the soldiers of the United States are following the orders. It seems that your question is a bit of a rant, you didn't express why you think it is the soldiers fault for invading Iraq.

Absolutely not! They are patriotic Americans doing what thier "commander in chief" ordered them to do. As far as war crimes, The whole Bush cabinet should be tried for war crimes against humanity. The biggest crime will be the crushing debt this criminal administration will be leaving for our children and grandchildren. Even tho this president will be gone soon, his legacy of gerrymandering the government, to line the pockets of his rich friends, and spending ungodly amounts of future taxes to pay for this immoral war, will not soon be forgotten. He will truly be "the worst president" this country has ever had the misfortune to have.

The US military takes orders from the civilian Commander-in-Chief. It's Bush that should be punished (Impeached) but I am not sure if he has committed 'war' crime though that would be for the UN to decide.
Individual members of the military in Iraq could only be charged if they partook in crimes against enemy combatants or civilians such as the soldiers who raped the Iraqi girl then murdered her and her family.
At the time the invasion took place, only Bush and is bunch of stooges knew there were no WMD's.

Last time I checked the US was the worlds police man. Were not going to arrest ourselves.
Also there have been plenty of times that the dollar has fallen hard but always bounced back. It is kind of like America in general we might fall down every once and awhile but we will always get back up.
