Was it right to invade Iraq?

[platinummatt]

We know sudam was a nutjob who didnt let anyone speak who didnt agre with him, killed thousands of curds, and tortured many people.
There again our soldiers are over there torurng them, people still being killed.

Should we have invaded? Imo I think maybe Zimbabwe would have been a better one.

No plain and simple.......there were some reasons but none were worth the trouble it has been.Iraq was never a direct threat to the U.S. and Bin laden was and still is.....where the **** is he?

No. We are not the World's Police Force. If the people of a country won't stand up for themselves, they deserve whatever they get. That may sound cold; but it's just a fact.

It's the same with a person in an abusive relationship; until she (or he) wants help or wants to leave, there's no helping them. They're never gonna press charges, they're never gonna testify in court, they're never gonna stand up for themselves.

If the people of Iraq really wanted Sadaam out of office, they would have tried to rebel....Al Qaida, for example or Hezbollah should have gone after him. What a bunch of useless ****ers they are, huh. Here they are claiming to be standing up for Islam and Allah and they let Sadaam, who is anything but a religious Muslim, do all that **** witout going after him. What a bunch of hypocrits and useless ****ers. Cowards, really.

Well, that's enough from me on this.

That's fair; but I feel it has to be a joint effort by the world communnities, not just the US. And, yes, I know GB and a handful of smaller countries were involved in the second Iraqi conflict; but if you compare it to the first Gulf War when everybody was involved, it's quite a different picture.

Should the Jews have fought against Hitler and the Nazis? I don't think I'd compare that situation to what was going on in Iraq or even if that was our reason for invading. If we're so concerned about genocide, why aren't we getting involved in that mess going on in Africa.

I don't mind a "noble cause", in fact, I'm in favour of it; but I see Waaaay too much hypocrisy going around in that "knight of the round table/white cowboy hat bs that we're being fed.

Thank you. I'm just sick of it, man. It's always the same. People won't stand up for themselves, then you ride in on the "white horse", so to speak, and nobody's ever happy with what you do. Yah never come out smelling like a rose...Never.
