im not saying what the U.S did by going under the un was right, but, with the us thinking that iraq had wmd's do you think that the us should have done nothing, except maybe try to find more evidence?

remember when al-Quida bombed the wtc's a decade ago... we did nothing... and they came back

so, maybe the us should have tried to find more evidence... but dont you think that whoever was in control of the whole wmd operation would find out that someone was snooping around? do you not think they would try to not nessecarily wipe out the threat, since the us would be a big threat... but severly wound them?

I assume you also agree with the very last sentence about there being "plenty of legit reasons why we were wrong to invade"?

ok... for this part in particular, i think that there werea few wrong reasons... but i think the main thing was that they shoul haveplanned it a lot better.  i dont think they planned far enough ahead, or didnt put into detail into it

Thank you for opening that door for me, Judge.

The UNSCUM and IAEA inspectors' purpose in Iraq prior to 2003 was to inventory and catalog all remaining WMD that had been identified (By same) in the 1990s. Saddam was ordered to dismantle these weapons and was not allowed to own any misiles capable of traveling a very short distance (180 miles rings a bell).

The object was not supposed to be a cat/mouse game. Saddam was to cooperate with the inspectors and demonstrate evidence of either the destruction of the WMD, or the location of same.

Saddam was about as cooperative with the inspectors as the Bush administration would be with Michael Moore and a guy with a camera. Clearly, he was in violation of the cease fire agreement signed at the end of his removal from Kuwait as well as several UN Security Council mandates.

 Since Saddam could not, or would not produce evidence that he dismanteled these weapons or produce the weapons for inventory purposes, the conservative approach to take was to assume that he still had these weapons.


I'm so sick of the "There were no WMDs" argument. It's completely misleading to say that we were wrong to invade because there were no WMD. However, there are plenty of legit reasons why we were wrong to invade.

i could NOT have put it better myself.

do i believe that oil is a cause of it now? yes

and im sure that was a +... but i dont think it was the main reason

remember saddam terrorized his people (yes, i know other countries have that same problem, but just bare with me)

he refused to let UN inspectors into the country to look for WMD's along with refusing to work with the UN. leading the UN to believe that he did have WMD's

and i can go on a long spill... but i wont... instead i will spread it out over time

but you have to agree that the us is doing a tremendous good over there.

personally, i cant wait to join the military, and get over there.

first of all, let me just tell you that i am for it.

I think the US is facing his second Vietnam.

PLEASE tell me what you ment by that was that it is going to be a failure, and not "its like vietnam bc of all the deaths the us has"

since i am not at my reg. computer... this one sucks, and i will have to go into more depth for my opinion once i get back home.

well, once school starts up, i wont have time... me running between drama, rotc, and tennis crap (my coach called me, and we are starting prac. for tennis like 2 weeks after school has started... tennis is a spring sport mind you)

frankly...  if any of you know what a batleth is... i wouldnt mind shoving one down his throat... or up where the sun dont shine... or maybe if i had two... both.

not bc of starting practices early. i can deal with that... but him and i just... disagree on like... everything lol

Oh you meant at work? I thought you were sitting around your house complaining that there was nothing to do.


no, sadly you were right the first time... the meeting is for the officers of the rotc.

i mean, dont get me wrong... i dont sit at the computer all day... er... 20 hours. that was a little exageratting... i get up, go running every day, and a few days a week i play tennis... by myself lol...

but frankly... im to fat to run for hours lol. so i fall back onto the computer.
