actually i think since the guy th u.s. put in charge (bremer) fired all the ba'ath party members in the government there in iraq and fired the iraqi army (all have guns) and that means hundreds of thousands of people out of work thanks to the u.s. they're pissed about that too not just oil and also the whole religious conflict between sunnis and shi'ites is basically why it's chaos
btw, there are evil people on both sides you can't just demonize everyone not on your side without fully understanding what they are fighting for or turn a blind eye to what your side's mistakes are

You wanna know the "awful truth?" Al Gore is WRONG! Now with that said. . . If the powers that be, both Democrats and Republicans, really want to hit back at the terrorist, we would be really diving into the research and development of alternative fuels, like ethenal, which comes from corn. Add to the fact that we got the technology to build electric cars that can go over 120+ MPH!
I have always said that in order to beat the terrorist, is by hitting them in the pocket book, by which we should quit using foreign oil, and start using alternative fuels.
The sad part is that the powers that be LOVE their money. This includes both Democrats, and Republicans!
Yes there is a war on terror, but it's not won on the battlefields with conventional weapons, it is won in the financial field, with the use of alternative fuels.
Note: Let be said that I am not a good liberal, nor a bad one, why I don't think I am one.
However, you are living proof that Micheal Savage is right; "liberalism is a mental disorder!"

If you were anymore wrong about this war you would be an entry in the Guinness Book of World Records. First, the Salafist Jihadists who make up the ranks of Al Queda and other organizations of that ilk want a single "Dar-Al-Islam" (Islamic world) stretching from Spain to Indonesia and ruled by a Caliph, under strict "Sharia" (law). The source below is for a book that you might want to read. It's in English now and is only 160 pages long. It is to the Salafist Jihadists what "Mein Kampf" was to the Nazis.
Secondly, we aren't in Iraq to steal oil. 85% of current Iraqi oil production is under contract to Compagnie Petrol De Francais, a French firm. Future oil contracts that are being worked out by the current Iraqi government would send a lot of their oil production to China and other nations who don't have any troops in Iraq either.
The Salafist Jihadists, in their suicide bombings, adhere to the heretical doctrine of "Takfir" which says it's O.K. in carrying out Jihad for Muslim to kill Muslim. It isn't O.K. In the Muslim religion that is a" Harram" (an offense against God).
But, if you don't want to accept the truth of what I've written, that is alright. The Ostrich Society is still recruiting members and you are well within your rights to stick your head in the sand.

You are truly an @$$.
First, if we were taking their oil, do you think we might actually TAKE SOME?
Second, terrorists did not attack us because we interfered with anything you "blame America first" piece of crap. They attacked us because they are terrorists. That is what they do. Take a look at every major conflict in the world today. What do they ALL have in common? One simple thing that all of them share? Come on, you can do it......tick tock tick tock...THEY ALL INVOLVE ISLAM! Yes, the "religion of peace" does not know what peace means. They are more like the religion of "blow them to PIECES". The Quran (if you read one that is not edited for American eyes) does say convert all to Islam, if they will not convert...torture. If they still do not convert, kill them. And it DOES promise 72 virgins. You want to know the true nature of Islam, talk to a former Muslim. They will tell you that the news does not overblow the threat from Islam, it understates it. They will also tell you that it is not RADICAL Islam that is the threat. Radical Islam recruits those vermin who carry out suicide missions from the mainstream. Islam is EVIL. Former Muslims will tell you that the American mind cannot fathom the evil that is Islam.
You really need to grow up and realize that there are evil people in the world.
As for your comments against the US soldiers. I have fought for your right to puke that crap, but if you ever said it to my face, I would kick the crap out of you. Stop slandering the US military. You should be thanking them. @$$hole!

the war in afghanistan against the taliban/al qaeda is defintely a war on terror
the war in iraq is not a war on terror until after the invasion. the invasion caused the terrorists and bred many new terrorists to go to iraq and kill american military men and women. the bush admin wants you to think the iraq war is about the war on terror but its not.
the saying "better to fight them over there then at home"....total bs. there were no terrorism, suicide bombings and mass scale civilian violence before the invasion.
that saying for the war in afghanistan is defintely true because it is a direct cause for 9/11 since the taliban hosted bin laden.
