Sure he was a cruel leader, tell us something we don't know. Yes, all of that may be true, but you know what? Bush promised us weapons of mass destruction. He used false accusations to start a war, and for that, it is totally un-justified. I'm sorry, but I won't be part of his lies and mind control. As someone said above, war should be a last resort, and that's it. It's the worst way to deal with things, and should only be used if absolutely necessary. Period.

As I've stated before, Saddam was a cruel dictator. That's granted. Yet the fact of the matter is, the US cannot act as a ****ing superhero. We have our own country to worry about, and we cannot go around taking down other countries because of people we simply do not like. IF we do this, and jump in at every cruelty, we will cause way more trouble for ourselves than necessary. More trouble on our economy, more trouble from our reputation, more trouble for our safety, just nothing but problems. Sometimes it's more wise to look out for yourself, than try to save the world.

"It is well that war should be so terrible, otherwise men would grow too fond of it." - Robert E. Lee

I think that sums up my views on War in general.. As for the Iraq thing.. Lets see some action or get out of there. Nuke the sand into Glass, suck up the oil and then give the land to Israel, Turn our heads while they clean up any mess that's left.

The war is a useless plot of revenge by Bush to Avenge his fathers Assination plot That was made by Saddam. The war is a sucide mission for no purpose.

It's not just America, it is also other countries that have any connection with America, remember Spain, Japanese and other countries innocent men taken as hostages.

Against the war, Bush had no reason to go to war with Iraq, they didn't find any mass destructive weapons, so what could they do? Jees, he was bs'ing everyone...

Because Clinton had no reason to, and the common sense to understand that by killing him nothing good could happen.

I don't think Russians have democrats -_-

I think a LBJ quote will help to make my point, just substitute Middle Eastern For Asian.

"I will not send american boys 10,000 miles around the world to do a job asian boys should be doing for themselves"

Even though Bush didn't have a legitimate reason for going into Iraq the war was for the better. We need to look at it reasonably, Saddam Hussein was not running the country well at all. Even though they didn't have a reason someone would have to go into Iraq eventually, hopefully things will slowly improve over there. If not then it would be a waste.

Thats the thing. Things aren't improving at all. More and more troops get killed everyday, chaos reigns supreme in the streets of all cities in Iraq and uprisings don't seem to cease.

Saddam wastes oil? Oh, no. Shit. ****ing bomb him. Americans waste oil all the time. Bush went to war under the guise of an immediate threat to the United States. If no threat exists, there is no justification for the war.

Taken down? Sounds like some WWF match. ON MY RIGHT (heh, pun) GEORGE BUSH!!1 AND ON MY LEFT, SADDAM "THE TERRORIZOOORRR" HUSSEIN! TAKE HIM DOWN!!1 Aside from the fact that you sound like a stupid redneck though, there's a plethera of "evil dictators" out there. What about N. Korea? Ya know, the one that is actually trying to get WMDs?
Quote:
Good ****ing god... most people who talk about against the war have the stupidist reasons and are just trying to be against things.
Why are you against me being against the war? You're obviously just an attention whore. I know what you mean about stupid reasons though. Your post was a killer.

If that's justification than I believe Bush's next target should be the pentagon.

Does that have anything to do with anything? Are you trying to say that we're losing because we're actually about to win? MMMmmm....yeah. k. I guess when I say it it sounds like kind of a stupid argument.

While im personally against the war in Iraq, you must admit Bush didn't really have a choice. The UN (technically the countries taking part in the coalition) signed a treaty 6 months before the war started to investigate the rumors of Saddam's supposed WMDs. They then elected the US through a technicality to support the investigation forces in Iraq. Also, political melangeries involving Palestine, Isreal, Iran, Kazaackstan and other countries in the persian gulf area left the US with no choice but to move into Iraq in order to access the other countries believed to support terrorist training facilities and camps.

I do agree with CelestialBadger however that it is quite odd that the US seems to be ignoring North Korea which is by now a much greater hostile threat than the middle east.

A democrat.

Seriously though, NUTS, CB is right when he says you sound like a jackass. Stop trying to fling mud and try to refute something.
