Ahem, 9/11, Oklahoma City Bombing, and the earlier bombing of the World trade Center in the 1990s? And I'm not talking about Iraqis, but the Taliban.

Taliban is in Afghanistan. Not Iraq.

They can be anywhere. They can even be crossing the border between the U.S. and Mexico as we speak.

They can be in Europe too. Why didn't they strike Europe??

But anyways, no, according to bush he went to Iraq because of WMDs (Which there was none at all)

JJ,

1) Neither Iraqis nor Saddam killed Americans.
2) One terrorist group in Iraq killed Americans, so you want to kill all Iraqis, or only those who are part of this group?

Back to your example, if a member of the mafia killed a family member, would you want to kill the mafia members, or all Italians?

3) You are confusing Taliban with Al Qaida.

And as Sultan said, USA invaded Iraq because they claimed that they had WMD, which of course they didn;t.

if word spreads your enemy's got a gun and you know he wanted to kill you, would you not try to stop it?

I would make sure. I wouldn't risk the lives of millions based on a guess.

this was betting that the loss of a few thousand and the toppling of an unjust dictator could prevent global thermal nuclear war and a possible attack on American soil, i mean what would we do if it were to hit New york, do you have any idea how much we had to lose if they did have a weapon?

There were no WMD. That's the important thing. America has lost major recognition in terms of leading war. When dealing with peoples lives there is no guessing. Only facts.

Tom Tancredo is an idiot. However, I like that he's against the Arizona immigration law.

i support the law, i dont like illegals abusing America.

First of all, more than 100,000 civilians died.
Second, if this is not a big deal for you, then why are you still complaining about the 3000 (few thousand) who died in 9/11?

iraq had nothing to do with 9/11 ...

U talking to me?

yer

I never said that Iraq and 9/11 are related..

Plz re-read my post carefully.

Over a million innocent Iraqi lives were lost and 5 million were displaced. Half the country's infrastructure has been destroyed, all due to the continuation of the former legitimate (now a delegitimized) war years on, after it was discovered Saddam had no biological or nuclear weapons, let alone having any link to 9/11 (he was a devoted secularist who deeply loathed Al-Qaeda).
It's a long story of political misconceptions, lies and deceit, but i'll say to everyone now- as a british citizen of Iraqi ethnicity - that the threshold of the war was completely legitimate. Why? Because Saddam was a brutal dictator who was an aggressor to other countries for his fabled "greater Iraq" which gave rise to many U.N. resolutions that justified the war on the Ba'ath regime. Good riddance I say.

Ameer, I forgot that you are Iraqi >.<

Want me to put the Iraqi flag?

Oh yes please!

Ok I added it. You could choose it in your Profile.
