I think the Gulf War was one of the reasons to protect the oil reserves. After Saddam set fire to all them rigs it was a hell of a mess to clean up.
Shooting unless fired upon is a good theory, but if your in a hostile area and a dude jumps out with an AK...I'll give our people the right to assume! Better than being dead. Tell me, if your neighborhood was surrounded by Canadian troops heavily armed would you burst through your front door with a shotgun? Hell no!
Then why wasnt that the plan from the get-go? before bush set down with his "mission accomplished" bullshit that wasnt the idea. everyone assumed we could go in there blast the shit to hell and call it a day. AFTER the reports of war dead came in, bush came up with that iraqi soldier stuff.

If the soldiers could do that in the first place why was heavy emphasis placed on american troops this whole time? and the gulf war wasnt a hard war at all...the iraqi troops surrendered and retreated in heavy loads. they're all a bunch of pansies. they were there for jobs they didnt care about iraqi sovereignty. you think that putting up what's left of the old soldier regime is going to be a big difference? "Now you boys play nice and dont try that genocide stuff anymore or ill be back"


And im not saying oil isnt important. Hell no! but if the idea you sold was to protect iraqis for freedom then you better have soldiers guardung the oil AND them.

and i have no problem with assumptions...but too many unrestricted assumptions lead to too many civilian casualties. i say we bring back the as-it-happens footage the media introduced and actually got right. no more of this mormon shit where some guy tells us whats going on and we have to believe it. i want my own visual proof.


i wouldnt burst through with a shotgun if canadians were patrolling canadian streets. but thats only because canadians dont have a habit of opressing her people/deserting them at times of war. if say...britain sent her troops and then got some pansy ass canadian army to do the work for her without giving a fuck for the civilians in crossfire...theyd feel the BUK BUK BUK from my ghetto-issued ak-47 piece too.
