Former Iraq Commander...

[Titan]

First of all Titan,,,i feel for you bro,...i hope yer pops doesn\'t have to go over there...Iraq has been a total disaster. Secondly i agree with Uni...I mean I knew when Bush first started talkin\' about Iraq i knew that this was wrong from the jump, and the thing about it was that Bush was just so headstrong in going to iraq for whatever reason...*well we all know that it was to have solid foothold in the area by toppling a weak military then putting in a gov\'t of our liking*....I\'ve stated this before,... even Colin Powell didn\'t agree with the intel, and he was basically forced into givin that U.N. speech on the supposedly wmd\'s being moved around in iraq. It really is no wonder that he resigned shortly after givin his speech.

There\'s a reason why China, Russia, Germany and France didn\'t agree with us goin\' in,...and bush pissed alot of them off, by saying "well we\'ll go it alone", but how embarrassing was it when bush came back to U.N. some month\'s later when s**t started to hit the fan, and he asked for help[ from those same leaders he pissed off? They basically told bush "fuck you" you made your bed now lie in it. They even thoght that s**t would die down when they captured saddam,...nope.. s**t actually has gotten worse since then and this recent surge of u.s. troops?...yea it\'s workin\' to a certain degree, but the terrorists know that the u.s. cannot keep that many troops there long term.

So what happens when the u.s. finally draws down their troops? It\'s going to be total chaos all over again. Well the chaos never really stopped, instead of 20 - 30 car bombings a day, it\'s dropped to about 10- 12 a day...:rolleyes: people are still livin in danger over there and you can\'t just casually walk the streets without fear of bein\' killed...this country was alot more stable with saddam in power,....even tho the sanctions had some corruptions issues goin on with them, it\'s nothing compared to the corruption issues that\'s goin\' on in iraq now,...iraqi police working for the terrorists, in some scenarios you have some of them goin\' home and comin\' back out to plant road side bombs for the u.s. military to hit,..the list goes on forever.

I wonder what\'ll happen if another 911 happens? will the Bush Adm...automatically go after Iran? cause that\'s the country that they seem to be wantin\' to go after as of late, but the military is stretched so thin, that if something did happen they wouldn\'t have the resources to respond. I too feel for the soldiers and if you\'re gonna go to war, you better make sure you use the miliatry responsibly.

Ask bush about Bin Laden,...you know the guy actually responsible for 911, and he\'ll just sit there with that dumbass look on his face and say "well we\'re still hunting him down"...i felt like smackin\' him when he was aboard the battleship and stated that "major combat operations were over" little did he know that it was only the beginning of alot of chaotic events to come.

First off, thanks Uni and clips for your sentiments. I hope he doesn\'t go too. There\'s still hope he doesn\'t go and I hope that is the case. I don\'t want to see him there. We still aren\'t 100% sure if he is or not but I definitely will be letting everyone know what goes on with that.

Clips, I see your point and I do have to agree with it. It does seem Bush is on the warpath again when its coming to Iran and with troops stretched as thin as they are, its gonna be really hard to go there both financially and militarily. We would have to have a draft to get the amount of troops needed and with the present mindset, I don\'t see too many people going over for Bush. They definitely are more of a threat than Iraq ever was and I\'m seeing that more and more.

I wonder this sometimes. I wonder if I would have been pro-war or anti-war with my present maturity level. I was a sophomore in high school when the war broke out. You can be quite impressionable at that age.

This is just some new info regarding bush on Iran....


"On Tuesday the president acknowledged he had given a speech warning that Iran\'s nuclear development risked "World War III" about two months after his intelligence chief told him a reassessment of Tehran\'s nuclear ambitions was under way."

"Bush told reporters during a White House news conference that he was not told the details of the new assessment until last week and he said the new report, which found that Iran had halted its nuclear weapons work in 2003, will not change U.S. policy toward Iran."


"They had the program. They halted the program. It\'s a warning signal because they could restart it," he said.  Watch Bush\'s credibility questioned »

Bush told reporters that he was told of "new information" about Iran in August during a briefing by Adm. Mike McConnell, the director of national intelligence



I really am gettin tired of bush and his scare tactics,...he knew of this new report regarding Iran and still perceives them as an immediate threat and also connected them to possibly being the perp to starting world war III..:rolleyes:....not sayin that iran is a saint,..but bush just really needs to shut the f**k up with all of his scare tactics....his own report downgraded iran and he still chose to ignore it and continued with his speeches of iran being dangerous and close to creatin\' a nuke...shut up and straighten out the catastrophe you created in iraq....what a f**kin\' idiot...

WTF???

Bush seems to be beating the war drum again. He can\'t be serious of starting shit with Iran. They are a threat. Immediate? No. Because of all this pressure, it seems to me they are backing off quite a bit and trying to just mind their own business and Bush keeps poking the lion with a stick. I also read today that Bush is really trying to hold onto the allies we have. It seems they are starting to get a bit tired of it. I don\'t blame them in all honesty. Maybe with the next president, they\'ll start to listen but on the world table, Bush really has no credibility anymore. He\'s doing the same stuff he did with Iraq.
