Why do liberals call our troops occupiers, instead of the hero's they are?

Question

When Liberals, IE: (Communist sympathizers) call our troops occupiers are they only interested in assisting the terrorists. Is it because they refuse to serve their country that they want cause the deaths oof ads many American as they can?

Answer 1

You already said it, commie dupes think like that.

Answer 2

Would it make you feel better if they were called occupying heroes. They are in fact occupying Iraq. The war is over. We were told many times the mission has been accomplished. No one is denying the heroism of many and to call someone who simply disagrees with you a Communist shows your lack of respect for your adversary whom you KNOW is no more Communist than you are a Nazi. What is happening in Iraq right now is that we have a lull in the fighting (Ramadan may have helped) and we are there making sure our efforts stick as the Iraqi government that the US installed is not doing anything to solve the political situation over there. We have spent billions of dollars and thousands of American and innocent Iraqi lives so oil companies can increase their profits. Assisting the terrorists comes from being in Iraq in the first place. There was no Al Qaeda in Iraq when Saddam was in charge. Hussein and Bin Laden couldn't stand each other. There was a small group of people who felt desparate enough to use terror tactics (as people have for thousands of years) because they don't have benefit of sophisticated weapons or organized armies. Those people saw us as infidels on their sacred land and they intended to use what means they had at their disposal to evict us. They recruited a few radicals until we invaded Iraq and then many far less radicals joined in the jihad against the infidels.

Here is a quote from one of your obvious heroes:


"Why of course the people don't want war. Why should some poor slob on
a farm want to risk his life in a war when the best he can get out of
it is to come back to his farm in one piece? Naturally the common people
don't want war neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in
Germany. That is understood. But, after all, it is the leaders of the
country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to
drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist
dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no
voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders.
That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked,
and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the
country to danger. It works the same in any country."
Hermann Goering 1945

Answer 3

FYI: some of those troops are DEMOCRATS and LIBERALS - are you calling THEM communist sympathizers? If so, doesn't that make YOU a traitor to your own country's troops?

FYI: the U.S. went in under deliberately misleading circumstances - this is no secret anymore - even the CIA Threat Assessment Reports verify it. Some people still believe that Iraq was responsible for 9/11, and Iraq had NOTHING to do with it!

FYI: About 80,000 Iraqi's have died as a direct result of the invasion of Iraq, and 4,000,000 have become refugees, all because of the LIES of the Bush Administration. And as the U.S. actually IS occupying Iraq with about 140,000 troops, what should it be called - a friendly visit? Just because someone calls it an occupation doesn't mean they are commies. I call it an occupation (what would you call 140,000 foreign troops in YOUR country?), and I DESPISE communism - my wife's family was on the wrong side of the Berlin Wall after WWII, so I have no love whatsoever for the communists. Call me a commie sympathizer and I will probably just laugh at how pathetically ignorant your comment is.

Getting rid of Saddam Hussein was a good thing. Lying about it will probably cause grief for the United States for decades.

Simple answers for simple minds.

Answer 4

Im liberal, and I believe our troops are heroes. I disagree with the policies that they are enforcing, but I believe they are doing it with the utmost honor and respect for the coutnries they are in. However, you also have to realize that we ARE occupying their countries. The actions of a VERY small percentage of our troops has cast a dark shadow over the actions of ALL of them. The policies pushed and enforced by our cowboy president are warped and misguided. We cannot take the stance that 'We will bring them Democracy if we have to kill every last one to do it!'. Our ideology is right, we want to free people oppressed by tyrranical dictators. They way we go about it is entirely wrong, invade the country before there is any real plan for the stabilization and hand over of power. So yes, liberals misplace the blame for this situation when they attack soldiers. The real blame lies at the feet of the man in the White House.

Answer 5

Have you been listening to the lies of the right wingers again? Nobody has called the troops occupiers. That is a fat lie. There is a christian right wing group that protest the war and says the war is because the USA loves homosexuals. So do all right wingers think the USA is being punished because their support of gay rights?
See that what talk radio does take 1 extreme group and classifies them all together as 1 and then talks about the crazy group as if it represents all right wingers. So don't believe all these stories you are hearing because they are about 1 individual thinking and on both sides of the issue there are a few nut cases.

Answer 6

Sounds like you are incorporating PC into your language. We invaded another country to overthrow their government We are occupying the country until their new government is established and is actually in control of Iraq. There is no insult in that term. .

Answer 7

I'm a lib and I've never even heard our troops called occupiers. I'm sure, as most people are, that there are many heros, fighting Mr. Bush's war. By the way, my nephew is a lib and he's in Iraq at this very moment so your generalization is lame.
If you want less divisiveness in this country, quit calling people names like communist sympathizers.
NOTE: A lib does not equal a communist. Most of us just want our country to heal and our troops to come home, safe and sound. That is not what a communist is. Look it up.

Answer 8

When you become accountable for your actions and accept that what you are doing to others is no longer right and for the wrong reasons it is up to the soldiers to refuse to follow those orders to continue to do harm to the people in Iraq .
The fact that we had soldiers load up and head to Iraq in the first place was a violation of treaties and international laws .
As O.J. will say it was my stuff and I was just getting it back . Does that make it right .
There is a correct manner in which to handle the Saddam's of this world and never forget we put him in power and armed him and even suggested that he could invade Kuwait because after all Kuwait was slant drilling into Iraqi oil reserves .
Saddam got the head nod from Bush Sr. to invade and then Bush decided not to allow Saddam to control Kuwait .

Answer 9

It's simple: An apple is an apple, not an avocado.

Ladies and gentlemen: Once again the "Everybody who don't agree with me 500% yes or yes, is a communist".

Answer 10

regardless of their status as heroes they are IN FACT occupiers (they occupy therefore they ARE occupiers)

Sorry the English language and logic trouble you so

Answer 11

Friend you have really lapped up the koolaid haven't you. I am a veteran. I served my country proudly and will challange anyone to call me a communist sympathizer to my face. Our troops are indeed heros. However, by definition they are also occupiers. They are soldiers from a foreign nation occupying territory. Look it up pal. Oh, and why don't you explain to me who you think you are to accuse me, a liberal veteran of supporting terrorists?
