It wasn't for no reason
It was for the only reason that you guys go to war anymore
OIL!!
And maybe a little revenge for trying to kill Bush Sr.
I'm sure the fact that Saddam threatened to stop setting the oil prices in US dollars again didn't hurt either.

It was so Jr. could get Hussein to make Daddy proud of him. No weapons of mass destruction and we didn't get any oil either. Just a lot of unnecessary American soldier deaths for no reason.

Man F*CK Israel and the rest of them. I genuinely wish they'd wipe each other off the face of the earth.

Hey, I’m kind of in agreement with you there. The rest of them is basically Iran.

I truly wish they’d stop fighting, in all honesty, but a lot of many years of war says this goes to the end, whatever that may be.

The arabs and jews will never stop fighting. Israel was created on land that the UN stole from Palestine. The Jews are smarter and more technologically advanced, the arabs are all uneducated and poor, bascially cavemen. The jews constantly bully the arabs around because they know the US and UN will back them.

Its bullshit, we should nuke the whole region and wipe all of them out. In the process maybe we miss and some nukes fell out over Russia, China, North Korea and any other America hating aggressive nation. Kill em all.

Palestine isn’t a country, it’s a region of the country of Jordan. The Palestinians aren’t really the issue from how I see it, it’s the people using Palestinians as human shields basically. It’s a super dirty war on both sides, I am in no way defending Israel, they have definitely killed kids when they shouldn’t have, but at the same time, Hamas and a lot of the Muslim world is very cowardly in war, that’s been the history for a long time.

Facts. That's why I honestly believe religion is the worst thing ever created by humans.

Yet you would’ve voted for Hillary Clinton anyway though, even being the war monger she is for voting to go to Iraq. I agree with you on you overall stance on not needing to go to war, but you sure do let your principles slide when supporting your political team. And that bs talking point that “Bush lied” crap doesn’t slide. Bush was going to war based off of intelligence gathered by the BIll Clinton administration.

The fact that Israel bombed the AP building is very telling. They clearly don't want the world to witness the fact that they are trying to do to Palestinians what the Nazi's tried to do to the Jews. The irony.

The problem with many religions IMO is that people do stuff out of the name of their god, whatever that may be.

So people use their religion to justify actions that they don’t want to be held accountable for.

I hate stuff like that, no matter what, literally no matter anything else, you, as an individual, are always responsible for your own actions. Whatever truth there is a to a God of Creation, the creator wants creation and not death.

All of these holy wars seem like demon gods using humans to do their dirty work for them. You can debate how real or not real a non-human entity could be, but the point is that clearly people are being used to fight someone else’s war.

I guess since there’s no oil there to steal, American troops won’t be used to stabilize Palestine. I may agree to not going in there, but the fact that we invaded multiple middle eastern countries for less proof of atrocity says a lot about our motivations. This is another case where I think both sides are wrong and right. Indiscriminate bombing of civilian targets from behind a wall is a very cowardice move by Israel and the US, IMO. If you’re not going in with boots on the ground who can determine the difference between terrorist and child, then you are using the threat of mass killings as a deterrent to terrorism. As a country who wants to claim benevolence, this doesn’t work I don’t think. I believe the current strategy creates 2 terrorists for every one you kill over the long term. You’re killing people’s family for Christ’s sake. I’d hate you too. Iran is loving the way this is going down right now. The Palestinians are the ones dying and Israel has to spend more money all the time to defend themselves against extremists funded with Iranian money, and Israel looks like terrorists to half the world while doing it. This is only the start really.

I think it's odd that Israel is the cause of most of the problems in the middle east. I say we get rid of Israel.

Yeah, that’s was very suspicious to me. I’m sure there was something Israel didn’t like in there that was part of the missile firing and enemy comms, but I’m not surethat was the best move just to bomb the whole building. That seems suspicious.

Like I say, half of me says just nuke the holy land so there's no more land to fight over; nuke it so bad there's a hole where the land was that fills up with sea water. Maybe they can all just be scuba divers that go underrwater and shoot spears at each other until their heart's delight, at least they wouldn't blow up the planet doing that lol, so we could all still live without rockets and missiles and god knows what else flying around.
