[QUOTE="SRim23, post: 4730624, member: 568830"] why not consider it "fighting for our freedom"? would you feel free if we lived in a country that everyday you had to wonder if today was the day that we got hit by that missile that we let a crazy dictator have? see people think were arrogant because at some point in history we decided that all countries had to be like us and be a democracy and be free. i think it would be arrogant to think the opposite. i think it would be wrong of us not to help suffering people under a dictators rule that does nothing but make his own people miserable. as a superpower its our duty to help out the little guy that cant fight for himself. and another thing about the iraq war. you know since gas got to be 3+ dollars i havent heard anyone say "it was a war for oil" haha those same hippies that cried that from the beginning would dance in the streets tomorrow if we heard bush say "mission accomplished, gasoline is now 99 cents because of the war. but seriously though a couple of my marine, army buddies have all said the same thing. we never feared saddam. we went into iraq cause we knew wed be able to get away with capturing him and letting him stand trial and then being able to set up shop in afghanistan and iraq so we could keep an eye on iran. irans leader is the one we fear. hes the one were really worried about. the war with iran is inevitable. hopefully its untrue but so far all signs are pointing toward it.
