Fact time.

This whole war thing isn't about terrorists and crap, oil, liberating people or anything like that. The truth in the matter is that it's a religious war of Militant Islam VS Jews and Christians <in that order>. Everyone tries to sugarcoat it by saying how right or somthing it is, but the ugly truth is that it's just another holy war. Simply a modern version of the Holy Crusades. People on all sides should just admit it.

And yeah, I'm sure they mixed the oil and other crap in it...but it's still just another religious war.

What's Bush have to do with the religious reasonings behind the war?

It's a "Holy War" because the Muslim Extremists make it as such.
Bush isn't making this a "Christian War".
I recall Bush's reasons for invading Afghanistan being to root out Al Qaeda and the Taliban regime that supported them.
I recall Bush's reasons for invading Iraq to be Saddam's possession of WMD (which proved to be false), and to remove Saddam from power.

It's a Holy War to them, it's never been to us.

Do you believe EVERYTHING that CNN feeds you?

No, I am not and was not in support of the Iraq operation. Not out of any anti-military sentiments, but because let's face it ... the barn door was open and the horse was LOOOONG gone by the time we had the will to do anything about it.

Look how long Iraq had to get rid of anything incriminating, and right under the noses of the U.N. (big shock there!)

Yes, Saddam Hussein was (and is!) an blight on the butt cheek of humanity.

However, I truly feel that resources could have been much better used elsewhere.

Marching into countries in full force is impressive on T.V., no doubt about it. What our enemies are doing though is using guerrilla tactics in small organized groups.  These cells should betracked, isolated and eliminated in the dark of the night with little media fanfare. Give them a taste of their own medicine, if you will.

Our Special Forces troops have trained for decaddes to pull off these types of missions, and I say let them do what they have sweat in training to do.

This is not a nation vs. nation conflict. This is not even really a religion vs. religion issue.

It is order vs. anarchy, the have-nots vs. the percieved oppressors.

This is a conflict that we CANNOT win without inflicting a complete and merciless destruction on Osama and gang.

For you doves out there, I am not saying bomb schools, hospitals and civilians. God knows that THEY have perfected that strategy.

Until we treat 9/11 like the wake up call it should have been and begin taking terrorism seriously, we are asking for more of the same and worse.

Howeverm we seem to be content to rip each other to shreds and do their dirty work for them.

How sad. How modern. how pathetic.

United we stand, divided we FALL.

Wow. You should really give yourself more time to absorb more propaganda. Cheney may be someone Bush listens to a lot, but he ain't the one running the show.

I firmly believe that Bush wasn't lying when he brought this country to war. He was simply wrong.
There's a difference between being wrong, and lying. Both are negative, but completely different.
To think that he brought this country to war for a personal agenda is a bit simple-minded.

While I certainly won't defend politicians... know that much of the debacle in Iraq today was caused by the poor planning of Generals, as well as politicians.
Also keep in mind... in today's military, in order to move up the ladder to get your stars... you basically have to become a politcian.

something lets not be hypocrits and leave out the two-thirds that
backed him.  And what else was bush supposed to assume when that
bastard Husien (who also broke several Gineva laws......including
GENOCIDE AND CRUEL TORCHER) refused UN searches 3 times in a row and
drew up false and contradictive documents?  And how is a war
agaisnt the worlds largest and most thouroughly established terroist
group a religious war?  They declared a jihad... we declared them
a threat to the world for killing innocents... there is a
difference.  Grow up <tricycle>... quite eating drinking in

Good luck lasting here for very long. Apparantly you must work for Fox news or something as well. So what if the UN declared that we must allow then to search our bases and outposts? I doubt we'd comply too.

Buddy i have been on these boards longer than you have known what
paintball was.  I havnt been here for a while, and thought i would
ocme check to see how the boards where doing.  I forgot my old
password so i had to make this new name.  So DON'T try to tell me
what i will and won't do here ok?  The reason we searched him is
because the US suposedly sold wmd's to him ( chemical warheads) at the end
of the Regan adminsitration before the UN implimented laws prohibiting
that nation ( and several others) from owning wmd's because of their
military history and because they had an insane dictator in power .
After the show of terrorism and various threats of using the wmd's the
UN reqested a search to make sure they didnt have ( and wernt illegally
manufactoring) wmds.    And since we hold one of the
MAJOR UN SEATS we could veto any requests to search our bases. 
However, the request would never arise since we are permited to own
atomic and chemical weapons.

Of course we could veto it, because we are hypocrites, and regard ourselves to be better than the nation of Iraq. I could care less how long you've been here, obviously you missed the updates of filter dodging and using the edit term for cussing. We're permitted? Who set that up, us?

I don't care about a spirited debate, but when you flame and treat people with no respect ... THEN I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH IT.

Surely you can make a valid point without calling names ... ?

As for a swear filter ... it's a SAFETY NET not a HAMMOCK.

THERE'S NO EXCUSE FOR THAT.

Invading Iraq under the information we had simply because he didn't want HIS country to be searched by a coalition of other countries does not hold water. Your arguments for the invasion pay little hommage to those countries with leaders more powerful, more corrupt, more homicidal, and more dangerous than Iraq. In simple terms, Iraq may be a place that needed a regime change; however, it does not even come close to topping the top ten list.

Ok although im not really sure what you meant by the second sentence here i am going to assume that you meant our military actions are disrespectful to the jihadist because they hold different views than us.  I am just wondering why you would say this?  I personally would assume that respecting people who's main goal in life is to die killing infidels ( a.k.a US!!!)  wouldnt nbe a major concern of yours.... unless you are yourself a jehadist and don't qualify as an infidel.  Besides... how is declaring war on an affiliation that a direct attack on our nation an affront to their beliefs and not their actions?

You do know that this man is responsible for the torture and death of about twice as many people as hitler and the third reich right?  So if this man wasnt worth taking out of power.... do you regard world war 2 ( the european front... not the conflict with Japan) as a tact of corruption implored by corrupt  ol' Roosevelt?  THe only other dictator who is as crazy as husein was is the guy running north korea... who coincidentely threatened to drown the us in a "rain of fire" with the 3 atomic weapons owned by that country.

Saddam is not responsible for the death of 12 million people. That is simply not true. While he has killed his fair share of people, and is certainly bad, you are definitely exhaggerating his evilness. Saddam is crazy, but certainly not stupid. There are many other countries with worse leaders that needed our "liberation" way before.

Heh. You are obviously unaware of the conditions in Sudan. Try your google powers on that.

Saddam, although bad, was no threat to the USA.

I think you have control now.



your pushing a moot point; I never said there wern't other bad situations in this world... i asked you to prove to me "DUNE" how any of these situations were worse than the situation in iraq under Saddams regiem.

Worse is a perspective and varies from person to person... I could argue that forced female genital mutilation is worse than killing 1000's of civilians.

Saudi Arabia openly harbors terrorists, and has killed almost as many civilians as Saddam. Even the UN took his threats to the US with a grain of salt, much like we are taking threats made by N. Korea. If we were seriously anticipating an attack we would already be there. Whale is right though, the Sudan is a much more distrought region that needed help way before Iraq. All you've seem to have stated is that he killed some guys and threatened us. That makes him the biggest threat? Hardly.

"He killed some guys and threatend us" 

ARE YOU SERIOUS!!!! God you have gift for understatment.

And if the un took it so lightly then why did around 30 nations aid us?  And we can't "already be there" because our military is already stretched so thin.  Im sure once the iraq situation is stablized and the us can retract all of its troops they will handle those situations also.

Thirty nations aided us? We have by far the largest force, and contributing a adequate force is Great Britian. Hardly any other countries are sacraficing the men they are. Most of them, such as Japan, have soldiers there to protect their embassies. The scare tactic of Saddam's capability really got to you didn't it? The government is pretty good at scaring us into going along with stuff. Korea, Vietnam, now this.

Did i ever say anything about supporting either the korea of vietnam wars?  NONONONONONONONONONO and just to reiterate NOOO! Don't even try to go there ummmmk!

And no the government didnt use the media to slam me with false propaganda and aligations to scare me into suporting this war.  I can read... i know what has happened in this world.  I made my own decisions about this man and his regiem and was glad to see bush take action.

For as liberal as I am, I have a hard time believing those are the real reasons. However, with the profits these oil companies are turning out, it probably is a perk for them. However, I still believe it was a misguided mistake.

this is precisly why we will never get anywhere.  I consider harboring factions of the terrorist group that destroyted the trade centers and a tie to 911 and how do you know the threats were empty?  We could have simply invaded iraq befoer he got a chane to invade or attack the us?  Its all going to be hypothetical and guess work so we will never make either of us understand.  I simply hate liberals who attack bush when most of them where screaming for action in the first place...so ill argue with you until i pass out from lack of oxygen or until my fingers fall off.

They did not harbor Al-Quaeda members until after we invaded them. That was because Al-Quaeda saw it as a way to be closer to us to attack. Both Saudi Arabia and Pakistan have twice as many terrorist groups within them than Iraq, and they are "allies." Bush's excuses were getting harder and harder to believe until the pushed the "lets liberate the people" crap. If that was the original reason, then be honest. If not, don't try to lie to me.

ok... whatever you say.  Yes they did harbor them because before hand and had training camps for them.  Im threw with this crap.  I think your an idiot and you think i am an idiot so lets just call this stupid crap quits.  Ill be happy to argue with you through pm's but i am tired of spamming up this thread.

I don't think you're an idiot. Just a little too enraged and not quite open-minded. Oh well.

There for a while it was touch and go, but yes, calmer heads have prevailed. Let's hope it stays this way.

Part of our problem in society is that we can't have a discussion without going completely postal about it.

You know I love ya, right Whale?
