Could someone please name just one example where americans actually did help by invading.... exept for helping their own needs.
War in any case is pointless. There can be no justification for violence against others. |

Kosovo maybe??? I don't know that we got anything out of it (like oil). Maybe you don't remember those pictures of those skeleton people behind the barb-wire fences, but I do. Iraq is not the same thing @ all though. |

A man who kills his own people will never take resolve in peace. And no matter how many people say that we should have world peace, i doubt it will not come for a very long time. It is human nature to want to be on top. |
Saddam himself is not a major problem in middle east. The whole area is totally ed up. You really can't single out a specific country that is more problematic than the other. Getting involved in that part of the world only causes harm for the country that tries it. But the problem about upcoming war is that it is a preventive war, and a preventive war can not be justified because there is no actual cause for it.

And im sure they are not the only ones who do this. How can they even be held responsible? THey dont even know any better, from the time the born they are taught that way. How can we ever expect peace with out proper education. |
You yourself say that palestinians are a problem also. I'll ad to that Pakistan, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Yemen, Syria...
Iraq is the only secular country in the region. The other ones are usually even worse than Iraq is.

It's not like catholics or muslims never fought against each other. A universal religion wouldn't stop wars, it would only decrease their number. Still though, religion offers only illusionary security and causes more harm than good and should be abandoned.

Kosovo was more because of political reasons. And those pictures you mention are from Bosnia, not from kosovo.
PS. You should post stuff like this in political forum. That's what it's for, right? If you checked, you'd see about 10 currently active threads on Iraq there. |

You know why I think there are so many problems in the Middle East? It's not the Israelis, Palestinians, Iraqis, Syrians, etc.
The problem is that normal people like you and me in the middle east CAN'T DRINK BEER. I mean hell if the government took away my beer I would be PISSED as hell! Pissed at everybody ... my neighbors, my boss, my parents, Canada, Mexico, EVERYBODY!! Think about it ... you can't go to a bar after a rough day at work and relieve stress or vent over a nice, cool, refreshing beer. You can't live life to the extreme and get ridiculously smashed on the weekends to prep for the work week. All that pent up stress would build up in me until I'm ready to kill someone!!! And although fellow citizens most certainly deserve my wrath who better to kill than a canadian or mexican??? The same holds true in the ME. We shouldn't BOMB Iraq .... we should get them BOMBED! Same goes for Saudi Arabia, Syria, and whoever else has a gripe. I should submit that to Bush as a viable peace process. Man how much fun would it be to be a peacekeeper? Even if my peace proposal doesn't work ... at least I'd still be bombed.
Anyway that's just my chillout room perspective on the issue ... for my political perspective its been thoroughly discussed in the politics/flaming forum. |

no point in discussing. it's inevitable. next week - bombing begins
and a message to all you anti-war protesters. do something better with your time. protests don't do all when someone's mind has been made up for months |
