this is the reason i hate it when people make it sound like its the soldiers fault for the war, its fine to diss the war but dont talk about the soldiers. coming from someone who has family in iraq it really pisses me off when that happens
It might not be their fault, but some, if not most, of them signed up voluntarily to go there. So it is their "fault" if they are being missed. No one forced them to go.
Oh noes Iraq has weapons of mass destruction, what ever shall we do?
I know, let's invade it.
They haven't found any weapons of mass destruction. They did got Saddam killed, the guy they made him president in the first place during the cold war.
And look what happened to Iraq know, mass chaos and far from peace.
If
you watched the video it said they fight for their families peace.
War
sucks and
I'm glad my mom or dad
wasn't in it. My great grandads and great grandmoms were in it.
They died
except for my great
uncle. He got LOTS OF MEDALS.
I first cleaned up your text a bit.
It's not much work, Firefox has a great spelling checker.
The concept fighting for peace doesn't makes much sense. They brought the war because they wanted peace? Can you see "contradiction" flashing in big red letters? There was no decent official reason for invading Iraq.
Officious reasons could be the following:
*Oil: It's is known that Iraq has oil. Thanks to the embargo vs Iraq, no one can use the oil, besides the Oil For Food program by the UN. Sadly enough they need it, because oil doesn't last forever. Invading Iraq would be a great way to kill the embargo. And if the USA controls Iraq, officially by an independent government, they can control the price.
*Bush wanted to finish his fathers work: Bush Sr. had the chance to get rid of Saddam during the Gulf war. For some bizarre reason they didn't do it. Was it stupidity or the fact they made him in power. It would look stupid, doesn't it. First placing someone on a throne to come to the conclusion they made a mistake. Of course if you wait a few years, no one remembers they did it. A great time to clear the errors of the past
*...
I never said war didn't suck. I said "people who volunteer to participate in a war are stupid. In this case they are. It's quite different when someone invades your country. But that wasn't the case, was it?
The USA invaded Iraq and then they expect that I should feel sympathy for those who died or miss their family.
I'm sorry but that's something I'll never do. I'd rather pity the innocent Iraqi's who were slain.
