I will never think Bushs reputation is worth almost four thousand American lives. F-ing! Thats dictator mentality and it has to stop. So now we are there to protect our masters legacy. Thats not even F-ing funny. Soldiers die for there country NOT ther president.

You misunderstood what I stated. You said Bush had nothing to lose by invading Iraq and everything to gain financially. I pointed out that his legacy as President is what he was risking by invading Iraq. You want to believe that it was all about money because that is what it appears to be today w/Haliburton, when in reality you have no evidence showing that WMD's weren't the real reason in the beginning. No one not even France spoke up to say that WMD's weren't in Iraq, everyone was under the impression that Sadam had them at his disposal, and WMD casing and residual chemical were actually found. The believed arsenal wasn't found but that doesn't mean they weren't in existance, Sadam had plenty of time to move them out of the country or simply burry them in the desert
I actually know Sadaam had OUR chemical weapons but this administration said Sadaam supports Al Queada and is building a nuclear bomb or close to building one. The WMDs in question were supposed to be nukes not some old canisters of nerve agent. Again this administration changed the definition of WMD midaway through the war like I would not notice. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
It is about money Snowtoy C'mon! On the level ou have to know that. Between you and me, I'd almost be alright with it if they would just do it for us. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/patriot.gif" alt="" />
I pretty much agree with your history lesson but mine was from the enemies point of view. I firmly believe that you have to TRY to understand why they are so volatile to understand how to defeat them. Most of these "terrorist groups" were political parties at one time and most of them have explained their mission plainly. They want us out for arming Israel. Israel has occupied land that was not agreed upon back in 47. They have occupied it with robust force I might add.
One thing I keep in my mind no matter what buzzwords are being thrown around is these are people we are dealing with. People tend to fight back when occupied against their will. People remember seeing made in USA on the ejected casings of the rounds that killed their kids. They remember. Only we seam to forget and that could be our downfall.
