I don't agree with war, I don't condone it unnecessarily, BUT, this country (and many others) were brought to unity because of war. We cherish our freedom and our way of life, all brought about by democracy, which we have fought for. We feel all people should have this freedom and a right to choose their own destiny vs a communistic dictator choosing it for them. If we were to continue to hide our heads in the sand then these countries will continue to impose their will on the rest of the world (hitler). Communist countries breed hatred, terrorism, and want to destroy the freedoms of the western world. Why? Because freedom threatens the very existence of communism. This is why communist leaders have never liked the U.S., because of our political global influece of democracy. This will never end until we have a united (global) democracy where all countries can co-exist and be united with each other. Some say we should do something about N. Korea, some say Iran, Syria and so on. We have to start somewhere, though they key was to take Afhganistan to invade Iraq. We need to take Iraq to invade Iran and so on. This is not about oil or whatever you want to think about it, it's about the prospering of humanity. If someone can't look past the media and their personal biases and see the big picture, then you live your life based on confusion picking and choosing what those believe around you. All really not knowing what to believe so you pick a side afraid of being left in the dark.
If a person believes we should not be in Iraq, they should think of what it would of been like to free the Iraqi's in 20 yrs? More likely we woudl be fighting them from our borders. Lets go ahead and cut the tree down before it's roots damage our foundation. :thumbsup:
