BJ,
Congress passed a bill for troop withdraw in May. Bush vetoed it, (passed by both houses). Don’t you remember everyone mad that Bush disregards congress and the people?
KriJack,
When Bush didn’t get UN approval, he didn’t need to come up with another reason because a genuine threat of attack (WMD) is the only reason other than an attack (us or our allies). It is Un-American to want war without provocation. You said Bush should have planted WMD so we didn’t look like idiots. Nuclear weapons are accounted for; their ingredients are accounted for, plant some and we would look way worse than idiots! Bush was NOT an idiot to try and get UN approval.
Israel was more pissed at the Palestinians that were actually bombing them, then at Saddam. Israel is NOT threatening the use of nuclear weapons. If they were that would be taken very serious by the UN. This is NOT a religious war, that’s propaganda and brainwashing.
As for congress voting for the war, “The Commander In Chief” was going; if congress didn’t approve, it would hurt our troops.
Iraq is in a civil war and occupied by America. When we had a civil war, we settled it, no other country stepped in divided us and set their government as our center.
Eddie,
Since we have no genuine reason for being there, we need to leave. Why should we stay? Do you think we, people who don’t speak the same language, people who don’t know their ways, people whose ways they don’t know can step in between them and settle it? Or are you afraid that when we turn our back they will kill us? They are killing us now. I just don’t understand staying at all.
Don't give me the power of the people crap when it's a known fact that less then a third of registered voters showed for the midterms. Ok now take a winning percentage of 60% and you're still talking grasping at straws. More people cared about voting for American Idol. With a congressional approval rating in the single digits, all time lows EVAH for congress, that's a sad statement. lol
You can't honestly say there is no threat either. I thought only Ostriches burry their heads in the sand.
