Iraq War: Was it worth it?

[medicinal]

Hell yes it was worth it!

-We ousted an evil dictator and his two insane sons
-We created a place where it was easier to round up/or kill the bad guys
-We saved millions of Kurds/Shi-ites from genocide
-An enviroment was created where Muslims openly rejected Al-Quada
-We saved ourselves from a terrorist attack via Saddam
-We made the region MORE secure by ousting Saddam
-We made the region MORE secure by sending the trash to Allah
-We've gained respect with the people of that region by NOT running out on an obligation...cut an run would be considered a loss
-We've have been rebuilding a failing infrastructure left by a tyrant and expanding it's benifits to ALL Iraqis instead of a "special sector" therefore creating a new allie in the region



I honestly believe that he feels that he has done the right thing on this one.



Various reports stated that Saddam had WMDs...now I know that the usual place for a country to hide nuclear secrets is under a rose bush but hey, no excuses right? There were also reports of WMDs crossing the border into Syria. Like the 9-11 people would state, "PROVE that he didn't move the material". Also, security reports from Russia stated that Saddam had planned on hitting us like 9-11 not to mention the assassination attempt on Bush Sr. .



Another good reason considering that the Kurds/Shi-ites were being killed off for sport



ONLY if your Canadian.....



We showed the region exactly what we could do in little time...with these people we gained respect.



ONLY in the minds of the blind Prison Planet followers.



Pull out and let Iraq turn into a hell hole; we'll just be back in cleaning out the same areas with a higher risk to our troops. Once ya get into a big job it's easy to walk away...alot harder to finish it correctly.



IF the Iraqi government desires for us to have a base there, fine...if not, that's fine too. How many years have we been in Japan, Germany, etc.....?



DEFINATELY wait untill the Iraqi government and it's forces can stand on their own. Instead of millions in the region stating, "I told ya so, they'd run out on ya!", we'll gain all that much more respect across the entire region.

Have a good one!:s4:

I had no Idea that you were this delusional. You are guzzling the koolaid my brother. Step outside the box, take off those rose colored glasses, watch something besides Faux Noise, and live a little. BTW are we rich yet. I'm thinking I'll be lucky to get my original investment back. Are you a golf buddie of Cheneys, what's he shoot anyway? I've got it. you own Haliburton stock, damn, I wish I'd of thought of that. Anyway, piece and luck to ya. Hopefully Obama can straighten this crap out.

Was it worth it? It's certainly not over yet, even after 5 years, so it is too early to say for sure if it was worth it --- it will definitely cost more lives and money before it's over, and the outcome could be better or worse than it is today. But at this point what do you think? If you vote in the poll, please post something about why you think what you do. Something like Rating: 5
