Point out to me in the Constitution where is says that the President can't attack Iraq. I know it says that the Congress declares wars, but it names the President commander and chief of the armed forces. So the question is what can the Presdent do with the military without the Congress declaring war? I don't know. Its hard to say. But Presidents have been doing it since Korea.
Motti, the Twin towers were not a Military target. They were a place where over 3,000 civilians worked. CIVILIANS!!!!!! that really offended me, Motti, please don't try to justify that kind of mass murder, you can't. The people who commited the attacks were sick evil murderers pure and simple. And it offends me when you suggest that the USA is somehow deserving of that kind of attack. The 3000 people who were killed didn't deserve it pure and simple!
Shim, first you complain about how The U.S. didn't do anything about Hitler until we were attacked, that we did nothing while he began to murder Jews. Now you want us to do nothing while Saddam Murders his own people. You can't have it both ways.
Is the Ira evil and should they be taken down? yes But they havn't attacked us yet, they don't continue to threaten to attack us. I'm not against Great Britian going after the Ira. It is just that Al-qaeda attacked us and is threatening to do it again and therefor they take priority over the IRA (for the USA that is). And I am unaware of any connection between the IRA and the USA.
As for that Video. It is tragic. But How do we know that those were casualties caused by the US. They could have been caused by the terrorist attacks going on there. For all we know, half of those pictures could have been taken outside of Iraq. I am also sure that you can find simular pictures from Berlin after the Allies bombed it and from France after D-DAY. But does that make D-Day, and the Bombing of Berlin wrong? No because Hitler had to be stopped.
If we set Hitler up. are we wrong to take him down. Point is, is that if a dictator/terrorist group etc needs to be taken down, it is irelevant how they came to be. They still need to be taken down. If you want to say the USA was wrong to set up Al-qaeda, and Saddam fine. But that doesn't mean that the USA is wrong for taking them down.
I would ask all those who think we were wrong for attacking afganistan. To tell me what we should have done. And keep in mind that we don't have time machines to go back in time and stop ourselves from setting Al-qaeda up. Al-qaeda is here no matter how much we now regret helping them in the past, they are still here and are a threat. What in hell are we supposed to do?!? Tell me!
I really have to give deep thought as to weither or not I want to continue being a poster on this forum after reading the anti-american statments made here. I'm sorry and this is not about Bush (who hopfully will lose the next election) I am a proud American and your statements have hurt me
