well then I don't even understand what US is doing there. They're spending money to fight someone else's war, when we have plenty of problems within the borders.

we are losing americans lives to save them,..giving us the right to their oil is the least they can do...more than half of their people are impoverished...so its not like it will crush their delicate economy. those kids in those countries are no more innocent than the adults...the kids are being sent at a very young age to camps to learn to be assissins, albeit not very good ones, but they strap bombs to themselves and send them into busy market places...with that being said...

what we should do is tell iraq to F over anyone that they want over there..and when they are all done eliminating each other..we can just walk in and take whatever we want. but the moral of the story is that saddam hussein could have tortured and mrudered his people al he wants, and it wouldnt have made any difference to me..i really dont care...if he would have just "played ball" with the US...he would still be in power..but he didnt back in the day, so thats why his kids are dead, and thats why hes in prison. but its one of those situations where you can either have a rattlesnake in your house, knowing that the odds are good that sooner or later it may strike and kill one of your kids..or you can just assume that it will, and kill it before it has the chance. i prefer that we drop bombs and reign terror all over the world on dictators before they have a chance to strike us...

i dont want to get into it, but i support the war in general, though there were a ton of mistakes made. but this is a decent point of view.

Very much agreed on that point, all I ever see on the net is the bashing of Bush and the war without a good explanation. The way I see it, Bush Jr is taking care of what his dad tried to do before he ran out of time in his term.
