Nobody that attacked the US on 9/11/01 was sent there by Saddam. None of them were Iraqis, were they?
We had already beaten Saddam's ass for screwing around with our oil supply, hadn't we?
What was the threat to the US in 2003 from Saddam Hussein that warranted sending a 200,000 man invading army that is still there almost six years later. According to McCain we will be there for another 100 years.
What did the lives of 4,000 of the finest young men and women buy the citizens of the US?
Why was Bush so ******* anxious to attack Iraq when the people that ordered 9/11 were in Afghanistan and the people that actually carried out the attack were mostly from Saudi Arabia?
I have no idea why we invaded Iraq, do you? Surely it couldn’t be because Saddam was disobeying some silly little UN sanction, could it? Is that worth the deaths of 4,000 Americans?
Let me begin with a time honoered tradition of moral clarity:
Why are you so Gawd-Dammed Stupid?
I stepped in more chemical weapons and SCUD parts on Taji than can fill three bunkers of the VRWC org. I'm coughing up a ****ing lung today because of 'unknown' contaminates I picked up 'somewhere'. Iraq shot at our planes flying Southern Watch a hundred times more than any Israeli naval event, and Saddam had paid hard cash to families of bomb-vest-wearing som-bitches for the last half dozen years. Securing a foothold in Iraq makes as much common sense as securing Sicily during WWII.
Not one som-bitch was Iraqi that flew a plane into the twin towers. Everyone of them cock suckers were fundamentalist types of islam. Saudi Arabia nobility should take more care of their people, but until they do, you gonna invade Saudi Arabia? Nuke the ****ing Haj? yeah, that will make the muslims happy.
Ever hear of the Domino effect? It works both ways.
We stopped too damned early in 1991. I was there then, and ****ing happy to finish it off, too. Crwal back in your shell if you are too much of a ***** to bring the moral light of clarity to the people of the world, rather than to white christian southern types.
4.000 sons and daughters of this great nation died to bring the hope of freedom to somewhere else. **** you for shitting on their deaths.
