Three years ago most were all for the war so why have we as a nation changed?Why are more Americans turning against the Iraq war?It is not so much the war in Iraq as the foreign policy that the White House has. I am against all wars! But if you are in a corner you sometimes are left with no way out but to fight your way out.
Were we in a corner in Iraq? Ask anyone, and you will get the same answer. No we were not under immediate threat of attack like the White House wanted us to believe. That is the simple truth. We went into Iraq by choice, not because Iraq was attacking the USA.
We have never won any wars of choice in this country in the past. Only when our back is up against the wall is when we have prevailed.
As bad as Saddam Hussein is. He did create a stability factor in the Middle East that is no longer there. Now wait and see. Iran and Syria will eventually run Iraq. Because of our failed foreign policy...... I also think the American people see that we are not taking good care of our soldiers when they get home. Just look at the VA affairs. They are already too bogged down, with more coming home crippled for life. I ask you: Have you ever been in the armed services?Why are more Americans turning against the Iraq war?It is very simple because, The lies thrown by CIA regarding Iraq of Mass Destruction Weapons Like ( Nuclear, Bi logical, Chemical weapons ) till now they have no evidence, Americans are now very clear about oil war which Bush has waged with his allies where unrest arises through out the world because this.Why are more Americans turning against the Iraq war?What about the body count?There doesn't seem to be a clear, achievable objective. The objective is to have a stable, self policing Iraqi state. But nobody sees a way to achieve that goal from where we are today. It just seems like we're going to be policing Iraq forever.
I supported the war but have lost confidence over the last few months. I am dissapointed that we didn't use more troops at the begining. I think if we could have provided better stability early on and that the situation would not be as bad today if we had done so.Because of Democrat and News Media lies.
We have people in this country who want us to lose in Iraq.
We have people in this country who supports the terrorists.Half the world opposed this war, and most Americans did too.
Where have you been in the last 3 years?
You got to be kidding me with this question...People listen to the generals in Iraq who say that Iraq cannot be fixed militarily. Iraq needs a political solution. The military has done all that it can.No weapons of mass destruction were found in Iraq. Thus, the reason why the Americans invaded Iraq was a complete lie and it turned out that oil was the target in order that this prime commodity will flow to American oil companies.More than 3,000 dead and not one of them a son or daughter of a politican? No democracy in Iraq, hell there even having a civil war and don't want us there!
We need leadership and diplomacy, hell the US can launch bombs anytime, great leadership is the ability to conduct diplomacy.
Teddy Roosevelt once said %26quot;Speak softly and carry a big stick%26quot;
George Bush just threatens everyone, that is not leadership!people are dying at both ends, there r no WMDs..theres just no reason they shud be there.they r not gaining anything at all.I never understood why we invaded and occupied Iraq and was opposed to it from the beginning. Still am.I never remember anyone being for the war in Iraq. Now, when we went to Afghanistan, that war was supported. However, Bush sent the troops to Iraq and that made americans angry. There are rulers in other countries who are tyrants and we don't go after them. Bush has a personal vendetta against Suddam Hussein. The war in Iraq is not our fight. Those people think they are fighting in the name of their GOD. That is no place for us to stick our noses in. War is never the answer, but we could have gotten Osama the first week in Afhanistan if the military wasn't so civil. The nation changed because our president is a war hungry hard headed man.People don't like the idea of war and casualties.
But I think they need to think it through, not just rely on emotion.
We are where we are, TODAY. the consequences of failing are far worse than the casualties it would take to prevail, IMHO.
If we were more united the terrorists would be more demoralized. Our discouragement is encouraging to them.Many people were for the war in the beginning because the US had been attacked on 9/11. Revenge and fear made it popular to be for the war. Since we have not been attacked since most American don't worry as much getting attacked. The US seems to have a fickle streak for the most part. Since its all %26quot;over there%26quot; it doesn't effect most Americans, except for us soldiers and our loved ones. Much of the news coverage right and left wing just bores the average American.lies lies lies and no wmd but plenty of oil.............you go america.....you are digging your own grave
