I don't know if we've talked about this, but I'd kinda like to see what everyone thinks.



I think by invading Iraq we are creating a devestating precedent: a country(a) can destroy another country(b) if country(b) poses a threat. Basically, the United States feels Iraq is a threat, so they're taking the country out. So many other countries can now attack their enemies simply because "the U.S. did it."



You know?



Or maybe I'm wrong, I just want to start some discussion. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif

haha i dont even wanna vote cause im so lost in this war. 2 friends of mine packed up and are in afganastan and bangdad and i dont even know what it is we're fighting against. why do i have a feeling this is gonna be another korean war. in 10 years i wont be suprised to see afgan-mcdonalds and coca-cola billboards on the streets of quait. sorry for my spelling im just another uninformed college student.



i must say i support our country with whatever we do though. it annoys me seeing people protest war and tell the president what not todo but not offer any suggestions for what to do instead. bush has a lot on his plate and im sure hes doing the best he can

I agree with the war. We are in a war against terrorism, sadam husein is the biggest terrorist of them all plane and simple. Just look at all of his chemical, biological, and the several attempts he's made to obtain nuclear weapons. Look at all the people he has killed with his weapons and the reasons why. Look at his own people that he tortures and kills, who only agree with him due to fear. His attempts to take over other countries for the "wrong" reasons is just another example why it is just for us to get rid of saddam and free the people there. Yes people will die, but people are going to die either way, wether its for freedom now or under a brutal dictator for years to come. Sadam has had 12 years to comply with the UN, and even with huge amounts of pressure over the past 4 months still will not disarm all of the un-acounted for weapons. Its time to get rid of this terrorist killer along with all the others we keep catching.

I think im tired of hearing about it!! What ever decision The President makes I'll defend. (Not as if I have any choice) I just hope he makes it soon. Im tired of all the procrastinating, it is only given people time to question His judgement.

Lets just get it over with!

Saddam will be told he has 48 hours to get out, so expect a war to start this week



UN people are out of Baghdad, and so are most of the press.

The US wants to do this sooner then later because of how

hot its going to get temperature wise in Iraq in the next month or 2.



It will be swift and still cost the US about 80 billion dollars.

If I sound stupid then stop reading but from someone who was brought up in a military family. (grandpa from west point, uncle navy commandar, 8 uncles in WWII) I don't think the war is all that neccessary. We were tricked into going to Vietnam and since then people have lost trust in the government. Personally I think alot of this has to do with bush doing what his father did in Desert Strom. I hope not to affend any troops who might read this but today my coworkers(adults) said that this is only a widespread drill to beef up our military. They think it is essential that we do this to test new weapons and expose our selves to something that we have not seen in a while. The people who said this were all engineers so don't think they are uneducated.



Personally I dont agree with what they said. This is going to be a turning point in everyones life. Its very serious and I don't think it should be taken lightly. I sit here typing in one of the major target zones. I walk outside and can see hundreds of oil fields and a major shipping port. Right now I am not afraid and If I think times are getting tough then I will go join and help fight. Not a way I wanted to meet some of yall but I will do what needs to be done!

JOE- No offfense taken. I think the majority of us dont care either way. Everyday is like a war with us. The only diff is your doing the same thing USUALLY away from home.



Now I havent been in any wars, I have been involved with other things(dont want to say) maybe calssified. I just know I got to only look at my wife threw a barbed wire fence for a month. Which actually sucks more then being on the boat 6 month in the gulf with 100-130F temps and sand blowing on you at 30 miles from the shore. DAMN what a shite hole. Anyway, I would have to say we are aways ready to do what we have to do, and we gave up our rights for the rights of others. We cant just stand up and say I wont fight, i want peace (bullet in your head).



I watched the brief this morning and I can say, the USA doesnt want to fight. They want to make the other guys BUG OUT! They want them to be apart of the REAL world, drop their arms, hand over the big weapons and get a long. IRAQ, N.Korea, CHINA, come on people PARTY over here, join in there is PLENTY of room! Shite americans aways say "the more the marrier" We just want the want to be tuff guys to join it to, come on over HAVE A BEER!



NAVY- Is telling people STEP UP or GET THE FRUCK OUT! I wouldnt say we are trying to beef up. I cant speak for the other services
