Looking like a full on 10 these days.
My father is a military guy (retired) and staunch Republican that was very much against going in to Iraq and every reason he gave has come to pass. This is going to be some fucked up shit and it is just getting started.Last edited by escorpio; 12-21-2004, 12:43 PM.Unvaxxed, still alive.Comment

Your question presumes it was a mistake at all. To be fair (and frankly, honest) you should ask first IF it was a mistake.
IMO, Iraq was not a fuckup. It's working beautifully. Here's why:
Killing terrorists in Falujah is MUCH easier than chasing them through Tora Bora. The terrorists are, ironically enough, "bringing the mountain to mohammed" by coming into Iraq to fight us. This was one of the clearly stated goals of our strategy in Iraq. Beautiful.
Sadaam Hussein is a megalomaniac whose personal goal is domination in the Arab world. He sees himself as the next great pan-arab leader. One of the ways in which he has tried to accomplish this (and this is why it matters), is by getting control of enough oil reserves to leverage his way into the game. This job was left unfinished in 1991, and it is finished now. I mean, who the hell thinks its a good idea to allow that guy to have a grip on the world economy?
It was real-politik in action.Comment

The terrorists never were in Iraq. That's not who the US was going after when they entered. The terrorists that are dying there now? Sure, you can call them terrorists... I am willing to bet that they call themselves freedom fighters who are trying to stop the invaders into their own country.

1) We're still running across unmarked graves, and even if we weren't, who the hell can say how many Sadaam's henchmen killed? You know that for a fact, do you? Get off! Man wake up and read a little history about things like the Final Solution, the Balkans, and Rwanda. Ask yourself what happens when something is done and when something isn't done. Are you even for real? Don't even bother trying to defend that stupid ass point.
2) The warnings must be unheeded. Otherwise how could we be killing so many civilians? Something about your position doesn't make sense.

Invading Iraq was not nor is a fuck-up ... it is what's best for the world. Sure, forcing a society/culture to adopt an ideology, such as Democracy, is wrong, but keeping them oppressed is even worse.
How could a woman from Iraq know about equality?
How could a person know they are being oppressed unless freedom is shown to them?

Since you want to "clarify things", let's be absolutely sure what a "terrorist" is. A "terrorist" is someone who intentionally targets civilians, ie women, children, non-combatant shopkeepers, etc. That's what a terrorist is, and I'd like you to try and deny that plenty of innocent civilians have been targeted by your "Freedom Fighters" in Iraq.

If you are talking about carpet bombing and the use of nuclear weapons during WWII, yes theySo by your own definition, the US military are terrorists. Thanks chief.
were terrorists, as were the British, the Germans, and the Soviets. If you're talking about using smart weapons to try and take out the bad guys with minimal damage to surrounding areas and civilians, then you are wrong. They are not terrorists. These weapons were specifically developed to increase the probability of a kill while at the same time minimizing the amount of firepower expended (and therefore the number of civilian casualites). In other words, civilized nations have gone to very great expense to correct these errors in their policies and lessen the horror of war.

What is even worse...in my opinion...is the fact that the Secretary of Defense still refuses to insert more troops. I am sure that he must have a reason for not inserting more troops...a reason that the public is unaware of. Of course one of the primary reasons is that our forces...globally are being over extended...which is the fault of the Congress approving the cut of approximately a million active duty personel beginning with President Bush Senior's admin and carried out throughout President Clinton's admin.When you're running down my country hoss...you're walking on the fighting side of me!

HELL FUCKING NO.
Does it matter in wars like Iraq and Vietnam? Well, let me tell you a little story that any vietnam veteran in here will be happy to elaborate.
Militarily, we kicked the the Viet Congs' ass. We kicked the NVA's ass. The reasons we did not succeed politically in Vietnam are manifold, but two main factors caused our failure IMO:
1) In order to avoid nuclear war, we were overly careful about how we fought in Vietnam on a strategic level. In short, we didn't invade the north and simply get rid of the problem. We even worried about "accidentally" sinking Soviet shipping in Hai Phong harbor, for example. We therefore didn't exercise our full military might in the war towards the north itself.
Because we are the sole remaining superpower, we don't have those concerns anymore. We can do what is necessary to win.
2) What Ho Chi Min called "our American friends" worked steadfastly to undermine American resolve here at home. I'm speaking of communist agents active in the peace movement. I'm speaking of Hanoi Jane (who should still be in prison, IMO), and all those little punks who walked around waving North Vietnamese flags.
In short, YES it makes all the difference there is. ;)Comment

In 1991 Iraq invaded Kuwait, kill most of it's male population, looted the country, and then caused the world's worst environmental disaster in the history of mankind.
Then they violated every term of the UN peace treaty.

In 2003 the US - the biggest polluter in the world - illegally invades Iraq, kills ten thousands of civilians including women and children, tortures people in prison, hands the country over to foreign terrorists and lucrative business contracts with companies linked to the top US politicians, robs the country's natural resources and installs a puppet government that the Iraqi's don't want...

We illegally invaded Iraq? How so? I guess the US did the same when it invaded Germany, Korea, and Vietnam? There is no such thing as a "legal" or "illegal" war. And of course the violations of peace treaty didn't give the US "legal" reason to invade Iraq.
We killed tens of thousands of civilians? I haven't seen that figure, but this is the end result of a war. Imagine one hundred and thirty thousand people invading a country the size of California. We are lucky more people didn't die. It's not like we intentionally targeted civilians.
The US did torture people in prison, however, this was a rather small case. The difference between the US and Iraq is that this was a way of life for thousands of people in prision on a daily basis, while the US punished those who did this.Herschel Savage
