Because right now, I'm not gonna write something that lists sources, proof, or anything else that adds to it's crediblity.
But here we go. George W. Bush.
What is your problem?
He sent us to Afghanistan after WMD. When it appeared there wern't any there, He said we were trying to run the Taliban out and find al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden.
And then he lost bin Laden. I won't blame all of that on him. I'm sure the military goofed a time or two, and I'm sure other people didn't make things easy.
But we failed to get bin Laden. Which means he needed a new goal. Something else to keep the american public supporting his war.
It turned out to be Iraq.
I imagine he kinda threw a dart at at a map of the Middle East and it landed on Iraq.
Cause now we're in Iraq, fighting, wait wait... Saddam Hussein, more WMD, aha! here we go.
We are in Iraq, fighting terror. No, not just a evil terrorist leader, not just a bunch of crazy dudes with nukes who are trying to kill us, no, we're fighting "terror"
Dubya, as he is so quaintly called, is trying to wipe terroerists off the map.
The problem with this strategey is that every time we kill an Iraqi, be they innocent bystander or Insurgent Militant, there are most likly two or three other able bodied young men who want Americans dead. We create enemies by destroying our current enemies.
Now I'm not saying it' a good thing that terrorists were ruling Iraq. I'm ot saying Iraq doesn't want to be a free country.
I'm not saying we aren' doing some people good.
(And above all, I am in no way claiming to know anything for sure.
I just call it as I see it.)
I'm willing to wager we could have done it without killing a very large number of people.
I don't hink I'll even finsih writing this. I'll save the later half for another day. Y'see, I don't write coherently when I'm outraged.
Damnit BUsh, getus out of the Middle East. Please?

You do realize, mike, that:
1. the president doesn't declare war; congress does (take a course in government)
2. Afghanistan was invaded because a majority of taliban was situated there
3. You have no citations or references listed as you said you would (where did you read that for every Iraqi killed three Americans are as well? I’d like to read this)
4. Cap yourself
Although I agree that some things in Iraq could be going better, get your stuff straight before you critique so you sound more intelligent. Stick to lego, you're better at it. :)
