What's wrong with having our interests at stake? I for one think that our national security and our safety are 2 huge interests that need to be protected. We went after the taliban because they demonstrated a fanatacism that was a threat to the American way of life. We are going after Sadaam because he has failed to live up to the statues outlined to him at the end of the Gulf War. When did that end? 12 YEARS AGO! For 12 years he has failed to comply with the terms of the resolution and disarm. Now he's "destroying" weapons that he never said he had. The man can not be trusted, and by extending inspections all we are doing is giving him more time to rally support, hide other weapons, and prepare himself for war.
Look y'all, i'm not a warmongering person. I have lived for 23 years as the son of 2 Army officers. I hardly saw my father during Desert Storm, thank god he wasn't deployed, but he was still working around the clock in the Pentagon. I would right now be a 2LT in the US Army if not for an unfortunate circumstance that i beat myself up about every day. Yes, i will completely believe that the US government has more information on the situation than any of y'all(sorry, it's true) and the majority of our allies. Any politician knows that war is a controversial subject. I can't rightfully believe that the Bush Admin would knowingly put itself under such intense scrutiny unless it was 100% certain of the facts involved.
I'm done. But, when this war does start, and there WILL be a war, regardless of your feelings for Bush and his Admin i encourage all of you to support our troops wholheartedly. They are, after all, fighting to ensure our way of life and the freedoms we enjoy.
