Questions for those of you bickering about Iraq.
How many of you know someone who is a current Veteran of either Iraq of the War on Terrorism? Have you talked to them before you go spouting your mouths? or do you rely on the Media for all of your information? Ask them how to resolve the situation, not some politician in washington, who too is relying on the media, and playing political games. What is the definition of a terrorist??? Look it up!!! Most of the people we are fighting in Iraq aren't even Iraqi, so how can you say we aren't fighting terrorists. agreed not all but alot more than you think.
Do you ever hear about the northern third of Iraq, I dont, because no one has been killed there. You know why because the local government is doing it's job! it is succeeding and rebuilding! you just dont see or hear it! blood and disaster always get the headlines.
I am veteran who has served in both Iraq and Pakistan, for the war on terrorism, yes we were there, but again you'd have to look for the facts, not rely on someone else. I have lost many friends and collouges over the last few years, but I am proud of why I was there, and I would go back if I was called upon to do so!
You want our troops home, you think we are spread too thin? Maybe we should bring them home from all the other places too! Bosnia, England, Germany, Italy, Japan, South America or any number of places that we have helped, been at war with, or staged since the cold war. You want an end to war. What about Korea? We have been at war there since the 50's, we singed the armistice (cease fire) but there has never been a peace treaty! so we have how many thousand people stationed in S. Korea?
