Yeah... He's after oil alright, our gas prices have never been higher... Thank God he did what he did, because otherwise we may have more American cities having airplanes flying into the buildings... I'm also glad, that Bill Clinton was too busy doing what ever the hell he did for 8 years to return the phone call to give the ok to take out Bin Laden... I just hope we all as a country get our heads out of our asses... when it comes to Iran!

No. Thats why Clinton was wrong when he invaded Bosnia without UN approval. He then bombed those poor lil' people to kingdom come.

Yes, I know the difference. Does our president is the question. There was the invasion of Normandy during the second world war, operation Overlord. A valid invasion in the course of a declared war. What our president did when he sent our troops to invade Iraq was an act of war, as it is anytime a country invades another country without declaring war. Saddam wanted Kuwait's oil. Bush can't find Osama, so this was a diversion to placate America after 9/11, and just like Saddam's invasion of Kuwait and George's of Iraq, many innocent people were and continue to be killed.

Did he start this war ? And don't natter about 9/11.  We know there was no connection concerning Iraq.

wrong as wrong can be, every death that has happened over there since the day of our invasion, has to blamed on bush.  he should be tried as a war crimminal in iraq.

Attack Iraq.\n\nIt got Bush re-elected so it should work for me right?
1115240
Absolutely not.  Going to war should be a last resort, not an offensive attack on a country who may possibly attack us someday.  In my opinion, all the spin about Iraq having WMDs was a smoke screen and an excuse to invade them to retaliate for the bad blood between Sadam and Bush Sr.  And if I read or hear one more person stating that we're at war over September 11, I'm going to vomit.  Why is it so hard to comprehend that Bin Laden, the Taliban and al Quaida were responsible for the 9/11 attacks - not Sadam or the Iraqis?  They are not one in the same.  They are not even from the same countries.  They have a religion in common.  But many ignorant people who lump them together do so because they eat up what they are told by the government and the media.  God bless the day people will make an effort to inform themselves and form their own thoughts...

Everyone with an IQ over single digits tends to hate Bush. I, for one, love my country and support the troops over there fighting right now; but I want them to come home.Now. Bush should have kept the war in Afghanistan and only in Afghanistan. That was our original target, right? Well now you don't even hear about Afghanistan anymore; everything's Iraq,Iraq, Iraq! Now it's shifting to Iran. What happened to Afghanistan? More importantly: What happened to Bin Laden!? Bush has his priorities all screwed up. But then again, I doubt if he ever cared about Bin Laden in the first place.

Ok last time I do this. Afghanistan was already taken care of and a democratically elected government now holds power there. Granted its a gov based on Islamic Law BUT theyre learning AND it was elected by the PEOPLE. We did not go into Iraq for oil...how many tankers have arrived here from Iraq? NONE.  The main points the President and his admin cited were Saddam's alleged links to Al Queda which rather recently are starting to be CONFIRMED by siezed Iraqui documents as well as Saddam's refusal to cooperate with UN weapon inspectors and even going as far as covertly transporting most of its WMD programs to friendly neighbor nations. Evidence of this is also starting to come out of siezed regime documents. There is ALOT more but I only have a short space to make my main points. The rest of it IS out there, if you have the intelligence to look for it and the wisdom to see that ALL the "mainstream" press is biased...even the socalled "fair and balanced" Fox News.

YES!!!!!beause too many of our troops has gotten killed,BLAME BUSH!

Murtha is absolutely right. \n\nEvery reason the Bush administration has given for going to Iraq has proven to be a lie, and every justification they have made for staying in Iraq is complete nonsense.\nIt is time to declare Iraq a failed mission, and cut our losses. It is time to come home.

Let's face it. We started off in Afghanistan purportedly to find Osama. But the real target was Iraq, Saddam and oil. Most of us don't even know how many US troops were killed in Afghanistan and the media doesn't keep us apprised. All eyes are on Iraq. Afghanistan was just a ruse to an even bigger prize, which prize has become a field of carrion, rather than barrels of free oil.

What are the stakes? Some Iraqis might turn against USA?, Some Afghanis might do some thing in retaliation? Some others might say something against US?\nBring army back home and leave the world alone, the world does not need your help, no dollars and no bombs, Stakes will be over and you wo'nt need to be smarter.

With Bush I (not the current one)\n\nIraq invaded Kuwait.

The action taken in Afghanistan was textbook perfect. I have been bewildered as to what went wrong in Iraq. I cam across an interview with Ex-Speaker Gingrich on Meet the Press this past Sunday; it turns out that they put in a whole different team to run the operation in Iraq, and they being Bush's Theocon Cronies did everything wrong. They became the face of Iraq to Iraq and solidified the concept to the Iraqi people they they were occupied. I am including some links on the Bush Administration which you may wish to be aware of.\n\nYes, we need to pull our forces out.

In totally agreeing with you, dare I also add: \nBetween Afghanistan and Iraq, over 50 million people have been liberated. Both the Taliban and the Bathists have been taken out of power, Saddam is on trial by the people of the country he ravaged for decades. Pakistan and India along with 129 other countries are now our allies in this war. The emerging Representative Republic of Iraq, with their new constitution, is now giving hope to the whole mid eastern region. Many changes are now taking place in Egypt, Kuwait, Lebanon, Jordan, Turkey and several other Arab countries. 14 of the Iraqi provinces are quite secure, with two more, more or less secure. The only real hot spots now are the two in the so called Sunni triangle. The Iraqi economy is now growing by about 10% a month. Since it has many natural resources (fertile land and lots of water and the worlds largest un-tapped oil reserve)they have now re-planted all the thousands of date palms that Saddam destroyed and are now exporting produce to Iran, Turkey, Jordan and other countries in the area. At any other time, a conflict like this would over run their neighbors with refugees. In this case the opposite is true, the refugees are returning to Iraq from where they have been for years. \nPilgrims are flocking to their shrines on holy days\nLittle girls are now going to school for the first time, not only in their young lives, but for several generations. Women now may vote and some even hold office in their new government of the people, for the people and by the people and under the threat of death. I some times wonder if we shouldn't just give them our once wonderful constitution that the ACLU and the Neo-Socialists of this country have been hell-bent and Devil driven to destroy, after all, we don't use it any more any how.
