Iraq (this time around) was never about Iraq. It is not about Iraqis, WMD, Hussein, terrorism, freedom, tyranny, democracy, religeous extremism or Israel. But you carry on with the good bickering.


If not for Saddam, we would have been over there at all.

I say it has everthing to do with Saddam. Please tell me why we went over for Gulf War 1?

Please tell me why we went this time. It has everything to do with Saddam.

americas there, no amount of arguing over the reasons can change that. wether or not you agree to the reasons, once you get something like this started, you'd damn well better make sure you get the job completly 100% done.

boroda, even a "sham" election is a step in the right direction, once the americans leave (and this "sham" is one heck of a big step in that direction) they can have a "real" election.

The reason we went to war was to crush the Middle East ‘paradigm’.  The stinking, foul, putrid ‘sham’ that has existed for 50 years. It’s GONE…  It’s OVER…  It’s not coming back…!!

What will replace it?  How the HELL should I know.  But, nothing, and I mean NOTHING, could be worse than what it was, and what it would become, and the implications for our National Security.

   And you're  correct, we didn't ask your permission..

just because you accept a different propoganda set from the rest of us doesnt make you somehow superior, and  somehow above average, part of some kind of "elite" humans who should be in charge of humanity for its own good?

if you beleive that, do humanity a favour, find yourself the windiest road you can,  get yourself a SUV, and see how fast you can go around them corners...

To expel Iraq and prevent Iraq from annexing a country that was contemptuous of America at the time, but, had vital, strategic port facilities and additional access to Gulf shipping lanes. To prevent further destabilization of the region had Iraq felt emboldened from inaction creating a strategic immediacy should regional oil exports be disrupted.

No, I won't spend the time and energy to tell you. You are intransigent.

Hmm wasn't it Stalin that secretly agreed with Hitler to divide Poland?  And didn't  the Soviets stab the Poles in the back two weeks after the Hitler invasion when they were fighting for their lives?  Didn't the Soviets murder 50,000 Polish officers and leaders from the newly conquered  territory in the Katyn Forest?  And keep all the Polish territory stolen with Hitler's agreement?   And keep their Polish regime of Kwislings in power by threat of Soviet bayonets for 45 years?  Yeah I'm sure the Poles are grateful to their [former] Soviet  [former] masters, er comrades.

repeat after me: Former Soviet Union!

BTW: Syria's next, you read it here first!
