No after how many UN resolutions Saddam ignored or violated, did the US return to war. Regardless of WMDs, preemption or whatever, Saddam's failure to comply with UN resolutions violated the cease fire of the Gulf War, this is not Gulf War II, but rather the completion of the Gulf War I for Saddam's failure to comply with the conditions of the cease fire ending hostilities.
dmk | Exactly. I hate it when people say "What there were no WMDs? Then why are we over there?" That is incredibly ignorant. Just because an evil man doing horrible things doesn't have any WMDs means we shouldn't go take him out? We should have just sat arounf and let this man thumbhis nose at us and the international community?
I think not.
We did the right thing, for the wrong reason. But it's still the right thing. | None of the reasons given to the american public turned out to be true. Not one of the many lies. The american public, and obviously many of you, ate it up. Every last bite.
He lied. And you can't accept it because of dumb pride and party affiliation.
Fucking pathetic. | I am not affiliated with any party, so that kills that theory.
None of the reason turned out to be true? What about the slaughter of Kurds? What about the fact that Sadaam was a horrid dictator?
Have you ever been to Iraq son? Have you ever served in any military unit? Have you ever served anything otherthan yourself? |
Those are not reasons the American people were given to go to war with Iraq. | Have you ever watched the new or listened to a State of the Union address?
Also I noticed you ignored my other questions... | Do you really believe that is what sold the American people on the war? Comeon' man.
It was a barrage of "connection to 9/11" and "WMD's" | I will agree with that. I have said time and time again, we did the right thing for the wrong reason. But it was still the right thing. |
