2 Simple Q's For The WarMongers

A. What would be your solution if, in 5 years, the Iraqi security forces are still deemed not yet ready to take charge of their own country?
B. How many more U.S. citizens are you willing to see die in Iraq before you say "enough is enough" and end the war?

 

I didn't insult anyone.
I just asked 2 straightforward Q's.

Can't answer them, eh?

 

A truer show of colours, failed attempt at sarcasm aside, I've not seen in a long while.

Bravo Ina!

 

What sarcasm?

 

A: More Training
B: 13.8

 

Yeah, ina shows it's true colors, wanting millions of it's (fellow?) Americans to die for jr's oil.

So airforce drew, when 14 more U.S. personell are killed on Iraq you'll want the war to end too?
When you do join us I say welcome, and ask you to pity and ignore kiddies like ina. I've had relative's die to protect his right to spew such visciously anti-American garbage.

 

Saying you want millions of Americans to die is your idea of humor?
You've lost all credibility.

P.S. I don't get offended if someone calls me a peace freak or tree hugger, why do you throw a hissy fit if YOU consider yourself a warmonger?

 

14? What part of 13.8 do you not understand?

Anyways on a serious note, I have had relatives fight for your right to say go saddam. Not to mention I have fought in operation enduring freedom, Iraqi freedom, and the afghanistan campaign.... recently even. If you have not figured it out yet, this isn't ALL about oil. Its about finishing what we started, do you know what kind of a slap in the face it would be to the iraqi people if we just got up and left?

Were staying till they are on their feet. I support the troops, I don't like the fact that we are at war, but as long as I am participating in it. I will seek every bit of reason for it. Some people just want to look at the bad, but there is also some good going on in iraq and afghanistan right now. One example is women being able to go out and vote, seek a job, not fearing saddams rule anymore. Things we take for granted here in the states. Once the taliban left afghanistan, women were able to show their faces. Sometimes it takes lives lost to make a positive change in a country.

 

(my emphasis)

I can see that being forced into a horible situation would cause someone to seek some meaning or justification for the situation.

It sound to me you are saying if we leave before the Iraqis can stand on their own, then the lives that have been lost or ruined will have been lost for no reason. By staying until the proper time, those sacrifices will be given justification and meaning.

Unfortunatly, this country has a habit of setting up puppet regimes in an attempt to spread (or protect) democracy. According to Washington, only those countries that support the US are considered "democratic."

 

Seems the warmongers also recall very little about the rights of women (and their prevalence in all levels of Iraqi professional society and government) under Saddam's rule as well as the fact that Iraq had one of the most liberal and secular constitutions in the entire region.

Did Saddam honour his own Constitution in many areas? No, but then before pointing the finger at a starved and depleted ex regional power thousands of miles from our own lives, the warmongers would do well to apply their outrage towards the very same abrogations of our own founding precepts, moral proscriptions, electoral corruption, flagrant human rights abuses and war crimes.

Moral and ethical cowards dare not demonstrate such civic duties toward the governments they do have the obligation to hold to account, that would be too close too home for comfort.

 

If you want an example of a regime that prohibits women from showing their faces (as well as prohibitions against working, driving and voting) you need to look no futher than Kuwait.
You remember Kuwait, right?
We went to war to re-install the dictator (emir) of Kuwait.

 

thank god its all just a game
