Iraq aftermath

[Back]

Where are those weapons of mass destruction? Tony Blair dosen't know. George Bush dosen't know. The saudi base is closed, so at least that was accomplished. Saddam is still loose. Isreal and Palastine are no where near peace. Gas prices have gone way up.

Halliburton, which Dick Cheney is an ex-board director, made out pretty nice though. I'm not in the least bit suprised.

George Bush thought this was going to be a simple piece of cake mission where he goes, "shock and awes" his population, does a nice photoshoot flying to a carrier, and then the Iraqi people would dance and sing welcoming the liberators.

In one year time, just like with Afghanistan, people will forget about it and it will be a thing of the past.

Americans will. Not so sure about the rest of the world.

They were such peace loving people before that evil Dubya showed up too!

Everything else i can agree with though.

A GS friend of mine is being deployed to Iraq pretty much the moment he gets out of boot camp.

Over? No. Worthwhile? I don't know. If I lost a friend to this war, I might lose my mind. I guess until then, since it hasn't really affected me personally, I should just keep my yap shut.

The iraqis will not forget a pretty much unprovoked attack, for seemingly, no reason. I assure you.

Everyone all defending it before. Now maybe they'll release it'll basically be open season on lone US soldiers for the next 5 years.

I still think it was the right thing to do. Saddam was a bad bad man and that he doesnt have the power to kill so many people now is a good thing. Its too bad our intelligence on the wmd's was so cruddy but personally the ends justify the means.

Hey, that's fine. Just remember what the Commander in Chief said:

"Bring it on!"

Spoken like a true intelligent leader of a first world nation.
