I know a few Iraqi refugees here, they all were complaining about this. The were all more happy with Saddam, they said he became a dictator after the Desert Storm bs. And Bush is the biggest terrorist himself, he should be overthrown with his grin on his face when he goes to war and his lies about more sensitive things wich I won't mention.

My toughts:
If you don't know how to get out of something, you should not go in.
America used the WMD scare to attack Iraq, just to get the oil. Now it comes out WMD reports were falsified, nobody cares. It would be nice if all other participating countries pulled their soldiers out of Iraq, and left it to the USA and the USA alone to figure out how they'll either run the country or run from it. they're the ones who started it, they can stay there and get killed if they want, but why drag other countries into fighting your wars? and what about the Iraqi people? they're even worse off. I hope they're able to make it so hard for the army that america has to back out and lose face before the world, in addition to any vestigal form of respect they had before, which they've already lost.
The media is constantly portraying Bush as some kind of War Monger. We have seen Saddam use these weapons against his own people, the Shiites in the south and the Kurds in the north. The United States could not risk the chance of Saddam building these types of deadly weapons. The war in Iraq also marked the liberation of the Iraqi people. In the elections of Iraq, thousands of people showed up to cast their ballots, despite terrorist threats. This was a major event in Iraqi history. The people finally were able to have a voice in their country. People like us take freedom for granted.
I think that it was sorta bad to keep the troops in Iraq. I mean some are getting killed. It ain't a pretty thing if you was to go there. I think we should just leave Iraq. It would mean no one would get killed and less sad families. But thats just me.
Now that the US is in Iraq, they cannot leave. Iraq is right now in Anarchy, it has no order and no system of rules. The US has to stay there until Iraq comes up with their own constitution, their own laws, police force, and once Iraq can manage itself alone, the US troops will leave. IF they leave now, then Iraq will be covered with robberies, chaos, and all sorts of crimes without anyone keeping order.
Ya but do you think we should be there doing this? I mean it ain't our country. It is Iraq. So we shouldn't be there. It should be a neighboring country that is there keeping things going. I mean I think the USA thinks they are better than everyone and that they control the other countries or the countries that can't defend themselves very well.
Well Saddam Hussein was not a saint. Most of the Iraqi people are happy to see a tyrant gone. I think that if the United Nations took a more bigger role, such as working together with the United States and offering more assitance, then the US wont be doing most of the work and take the responsibility.
Yes but we shouldn't have to almost take completely take control of a country like that. And neither should the UN. We should let them work things out them selves and maybe and I mean MAYBE help out a little if they want our help. We shouldn't just come in and get them to make a government and when they do maybe leave and let them run on there own or stay there to make them do it right. I mean like I said before, we think we can control all the countries that can't defend themselves very well against other people. If we make an alliance with them than we can help, otherwise we should let them solve there problems on there own.

He uses the best way to rule a nation, fear... And the sad thing is that people are buying this %#@*. Remember the Bush administration sponsored AlQaida themselves for billions of dollars and Bin Laden was a CIA tactician a few years ago, rewarded and all. Sorry if I seem angry but this injustice been on far too long now 
QUOTE(Joannespw @ Jun 9 2005, 06:53 PM) ok so its the responsibility of the un, but did they do anything no? I at least am happy that Bush did something that may bear positive fruit regardless of his motives to do so. I wish the un was more active in enforceing its resolutions. maybe then they would be taken more seriously by everyone. The middle east will be a much easier mess to solve now that a western power is actualy threatening with war and as a matter of fact, to enforce UN resolutions (even if they might have done it for thier own purpose)  keeping in mind that the US effectively crippled the UN program by instigating a WAR right after the UN declared sanctions on Iraq, i don't think that u can blame the UN. How logical is that? You impose sanctions, and a week later declare they're not working. This is so elementary. Where's the positive fruit you speak of? Why are Americans hated by almost everyone in the Middle East? Why is most of the Iraqi civilian population still without water & electricity? Why is there this increased hostility towards innocent Americans abroad? Because of Bush, and his pride. What kind of resolutions is the US going to enforce? remember that the original UN resolution was NOT to attack militarily in Iraq, but to use economic sanctions. The US blatantly disregarded this resolution. there are countless examples of America's violations of international laws, the geneva convention, etc. THERE IS NO JUSTIFICATION FOR THE U.S. TO DO AS IT HAS DONE. QUOTE(imran @ Jun 9 2005, 05:44 PM) By the way who has given rights to USA to decide WHO IS RIGHT AND WHO IS WRONG??? U must know whole UN was against this war. My friend this war was not for the deadly weapons, its obvious now this was was only for OIL. No doubt Saddam was a dictator and his own people was not happy with him, But to eliminate a dictator is not US responsibilty, its the responsibility of UN. And now the country is in worse situation then it was in regime of Saddam. ok so its the responsibility of the un, but did they do anything no?

getting sadam out of power was a good idea, however the way it was done was not a good idea. i believe dicators should be overthrouwn and i definitely don;t like terrorists. What frustrates me is that its takes a bad excuse for the western world to invade a country and overthrow a dictator. There are plenty more countries where we should be doing that. And why didn;t we do it in the first place during the kuwait war?
there are too many political and economic intersts involved in the iraw war for anyone to say that it was just about kicking out a dictator. because if that was the case then i can name a long list of countries that need invading just for that reason alone. Maybe bush was mad because that 'man treid killing my (his) daddy'!!! Well then I wish that some more dictators treid killing his daddy. ps/ credit to bush for invading though! Iraq is better of.
