Hey look, less U.S. soldiers have been killed this month in our chaotic illegal and immoral quagmire! Mission accomplished!

Oh no, call the U.N.! Naughty U.S. has commited a crime! Naughty meanies!(I am not insulting you, just that opinion you hold... I am always way too sarcastic, and I couldn't resist!) Plus... the actual mission accomplished was the overthrowing of Hussein(Typo?). The military and politicians just overlooked the importance of sem-organized military cells. The Iraqi military was worthless, but the individual Islamic cells are not. Put the people in a state of fear to demoralize their beliefe in the occupying forces, an slowly strike at the morale of the occupying country. THat tactic is very hard to counter-measure when your own media sides with what the enemy wishes to accomplish. This war isn't military versus military, it is and Ideal versus Ideal. No TRUE victory can be acheived unless one of the Ideals give in. Anyway... I seriousluy need to get out of this thread... I can see the flaming already!... Grrggh... cannot... resist... @Rath You misunderstood the feelings those words give me, not the actual literal idea the sentence has. But that is what happens with archaic English. I am not sure how to explain what I actually think... so I won't try.

I thought the US claimed they invaded Iraq because of their huge arsenal of weapons of mass destruction. You know, that stuff they found they found in abundance once they had overtrown Hussain. Oh wait... they didn't find any at all, did they? You know what they did find, and plenty of it? OIL!!! Anyway, the real issue is the US started the war without a plan for peace after getting Hussain out of office. How fooling did Bush look declaring they won the war how many years ago? |
The actual main reason for invading Iraq was to take out Saddam Hussein and there was good reason to believe he had weapons of mass destruction such as chemical bombs.

And at Rath:
The United States budget and Debt is just an unavoidable result of the Government actually doing something.
