What is/are your opinion(s) on the subject? I found this website somehow, and it says exactly what I've been thinking. www.gaijin.com/EvilPeople/Check it out. I think war and everything is awful. This whole thing was completely unnecessary. I wish it were more like the 60s and 70s, with people coming together like before. |

i agree war is bad and i agree with what that said but u think this war was not necessary...if Bush would have left them, they would have kept on attacking...he got rid of one top terrorist. i think that war is bad but he is doing the right thing...

Ha. There was absolutely no justification for this war.
Bush claimed that Sadam had weapons of mass destruction, that's why we went to war with Iraq. Where are they George?
I agree that Sadam was a horrible person, and he needed to be taken out of a position of power, but that's the UN's job, not the USA's. We had no right to go into their land and throw out their leader.
It's like going to your neighbor's house, kicking down the door, eating all their food, watching TV, and then telling them they can't live there anymore because they were mean to their pets. You have no right to do that.
KC: Who would have kept attacking? Were the iraqis attacking us? No, they weren't. This war isn't about getting rid of terrorists. If it was, we'd be all over Afganistan right now. It's about taking control of the middle east and gaining their oil reserves.

KC, look around! They still are coming!
What happened in Britain just a couple weeks ago? Multiple bombings of trains and busses by group claiming ties to Al Qaida! (sp?) Bush and his cronies are only making it worse by pissing off the Iraqis who are in turn killing our soldiers.

They've realized it wasn't the right thing to elect him, that's what I think. We need a president who doesn't say things like "you misunderestimate me" and people around him who don't release the names of CIA agents who are married to people they're pissed off at.

I never said it would stop if Bush did nothing. I just think he's going about it the wrong way. I've already made my point about terror, and you tried (and failed) to circumvent it.
Basically what you're saying is if the terrorists aren't coming here, then everything's just fine? Sure.... Who cares about the Europeans anyway? [/sadistic sarcasm]

Okay then! Locking! No more arguing. If you want to talk to KC, Adam, you can PM him, but once someone gets mad, it all goes downhill. This was a very good debating topic, and if you can calm down, KC, I might unlock it. Until then, don't say anything else about it except in PMs. Okay? And KC, please don't tell people to shut up. I'm going to take 1 point from Gryffindor. I know you may get mad, but I'm not going to let this slide.
