Oh, and SCOWAK, by the way:
I would encourage anyone who wants to understand how Iraqis feel about anything to do more than read an article in the Seattle PI that was written by someone with their own political agenda. Talk to some soldiers that has served a tour of duty over there--Better yet, go to Iraq and talk directly to the Iraqi people and hear their unfilltered opinions about the ousting of Saddam and his regime.
I don't know about you, but I'd much rather deal with them over there with our brave men and Service women trained and equiped to to fight back--than deal with them here where our wives and children are.
How much time did
you spend over in Iraq talking with the troops or with Iraqis to find out exactly how they feel? Or are you just forming your opinion from some conservative media source with their own political agenda?
I'm sure the Iraqis are really happy that we chose their country to lure the extremists to in order to "take the fight to them." After thousands of innocent women and children have been killed, the latest poll shows how grateful they are to have us there. :rolleyes:
Your statement reeks of American arrogance, and that attitude is what is really killing us in this war. We're not the only humans in this world who's life has value.
And just to let you know, I talk with soldiers everday; some have been there, some are going, and some are there. So, yeah, I think I'm qualified to have an opinion on this subject.
