If we didn't have help in those wars in our infant years, the USA would not exist. The French helped as well. We seem to be taking all of the credit for our own freedoms. If we didn't have help, where do you think we'd be today?

Also, I am not wrong about this war being about finishing what Bush, Sr. didn't finish (i.e. Bush, Sr. would've LOVED to have brought down Saddam . . . hint, hint) and the oil. It is NOT about morals or freedoms. How can you sit there and say it is? What freedoms that are written in the Constitution are we directly protecting by attacking Iraq? The only freedoms I know about are included in the Constitution. PLEASE correct me if I am wrong. I know you will. (hint the sarcasm.) We aren't protecting freedom of the press or speech (i.e. Patriot Act, which isn't a war), the right to bear arms, the right to assemble and peacefully protest, etc. Americans are too stupid to protest the Patriot Act because the whole propaganda that Bush, Jr. spread about Americans giving up some freedoms to protect others. Who decides which ones are the most important?

What morals are we protecting? Last time I checked, the USA was not the beacon of morality as Americans like to preach that our country is. Seems to me like the word "hypocrites" can be thrown in the conversation now. I also didn't know the USA had a morality code that citizens were to follow. Where is that written in the law books or Constitution? Please correct me if I am wrong, but I didn't know I had to live by another's set of morals. I thought I lived by my own.
