zionism drive american troops like sheeps and take them up there to iraq ! becuse all americans knew down deep in 'em hearts theres NO problem between iraqis and americans ... zionism just like cancer
Janeane Garofalo said of it, "There's no way this can end well." And then she was called every name; surveilled, her life threatened regularly, publicly. Such are the American war enthusiasts. And what do they say now? "Obama is a Muslim". They are 'no-nothings', proud to be stupid.
@MrUlug89 Over a million of them are dead now, who wouldn't be if we hadn't invaded. We owe Iraq, oh hell yes. But we'll never admit it; we didn't even impeach Bush for his crime of waging a war of aggression. In which, by the way, Obama is made complicit under U.S. law by his failure to prosecute this ultimate crime. Murderous and cowardly is the U.S., and I'll soon be leaving, with the money I make from my new-tech riding suit that I'll introduce in the Spring.
@mrstuperstefan That's because I know the difference between right and wrong and you don't. But on a lighter note, that 'supersuit' thing, that's a pretty good burn! I liked that, that was fun.
@mookins45 Someday I'll know the difference between right and wrong just like you. Until then, I'll have to suffice in knowing that if I just do whatever you do I will always be right. p.s. I had an invention once.
@MrUlug89 in world war 2 the us rebuilt all of japan and built new factories better than the rest of the world. Iraq wontt get shit because in ww2 america decided to bail out the auto industry but had o give job and good money build productive things this time we just gave it away so we owe them big
Too much emphasis on the suffering of the US soldiers, which is infinitesimal compared to the suffering they willingly visited on the Iraqi people, who had no choice in the matter. Al Jazeera disappoints again.
3,500,000,000,000 or 10k for every man woman and child in the USA and that is the monitary cost only. Who where the gainers form this expenditure? The same self serving people that control washington maybe? I would like to see these same people decleare a war on national debt and sacrafice thier wealth like those poor poeple that scaraficed there lives for thier war. It will never happen of course for thier idealism works only one way, to serve themselves.
What has America, as a whole, has learned from this misadventure?
My guess is not much. At least not so much that in another 10-20-30 years from now we will be doing the same crap some place else...or maybe in the same place.
This war had everything to do with GWB and his sycophants getting rich at the expense of Iraqi lives and US money. Crazy that these people beggared a superpower and are not even hanging from trees. It is pretty astonishing really.
$3.5 trillion divided by 309 million people in the USA = $11,326.86 per every man, woman, and child. And we wonder why we have a debt problem. Thanks, George.
Hundreds of thousands dead ... not tens of thousands. It's nice you got the battledroid invaders number right though wouldn't want to get that down played.
People in America always talk about the 3000 americans who died on 9/11, or the almost 5000 soliders who died in battle, but no one ever thinks or talks about the 1 MILLION+++ people who died in Iraq since the US invaded! Who are the real terrorists? You decide for yourself.
@SignMeUpForThisBaby - Our media doesn’t cover that. The media is more interested in Charlie Sheen and antics of Britney Spears than covering real news. And It’s no wonder, the same people who own the news agencies are also the profiteers during wartimes. It would be counterproductive to show dead Iraqi women and children when they have governments and rebels to finance. In matters of death, they are completely impartial.
However the US military did learn a few lessons from Vietnam such as not calling on the draft and keeping a tight rein on the US media. This resulted in the war being sustainable politically as the war was fought with well paid(well relatively well paid) volunteers and mercs.
However this resulted in the US spending like 4 Trillion dollars on Iraq and led to a bad recession.
well having closely followed the Iraq war since 2003.
the biggest mistake the US ever made which I think is critical to its handling of the war is that the US WIDELY UNDERESTIMATED the Iraqis. The Americans did not learn from Vietnam and still think mainly about warfare in conventional terms.
The US also did not secure tha massive Iraqi army arms caches which were largely looted and later found their way to teh guerillas which caused much grief on the US forces on the ground.
I am old enough to understand this was another bogus Gulf of Tonkin justification to get us into a war. A war about oil, the weapons manufacturers, and world finance & Zionism. I am sickened by every flag-draped coffin and the grieving families. Now we have the sabre rattling for yet another war in Iran and/or Syria. LORD help us. Shame on Bush for starting this; shame on Obama for not putting an end to it. It took the Iraqis to end the war by booting us out.
@bibleortraditions Now do you understand why arabs burn American and Israeli flags!? For the record they are not crazy. A few of them are radicals but most of them just want to stop being bombed! THEY ARE NOT CRAZY, CONGRESS IS CRAZY
Just so you all know really quick, I don't want to start an argument just the facts. This was George Bush's timeline for a full removal of forces when he left office. Could Obama have put it off? Yes. Could he have done it sooner? Yes. This is not a pro Bush statement. Just the facts.
@narutospearman - Obama made no decision. The date set to withdraw was set by Bush. The Iraqi government is kicking us out. Obama was going to bring our troops home within 6 months of taking office. He lied to the People.
Well said, even though Bush is a fucktard just like Obama his admin set the date and now uniformed gullible people eat up Obama's claims of making good on one of his promises.
@TheAsfaloth - Isn't that true? I watched Obama give his speech declaring he was fulfilling his campaign promise and bringing the troops home. I couldn’t believe my ears. He was going to bring them home right away. Then after he reneges on his promise, he accepts the praise for bringing them home when in fact the troops are given the ol’ heave-ho.
George Bush Senior should've taken Saddam Hussein out after he invaded Kuwait. At least Saddam had actual WMDs back then! This shit would've never happened, no unjustified war, no 12 extra years under Saddam's rule and no spread of hatred against america and the west.
@itsasin1969 I really appreciate ur perspective, but it's high time to adopt the policy of live and let others live, stop genocide coz war is fanning terrorism, and "we" as normal citizens of our countries need to make sure that this erroneous act is not committed again as war is the end of everything. Peace :)
@itsasin1969 but for money you will do what ever president say )))) If president promises you a good education after war or free house or good job in usa after war! you gonna do if you are able to fight!! I'm in general of course no one want's to go to a war to fight But in america A lot of people hungry for money they will kill people for their goods (education, job , house) But I saw solders who came from war they are homeless now in america
This war sucked. We lost a lot of good people. Iraqi innocents were killed for little good. I am truly sad about this war. Back in 2003 when I was 17 I was all for this war because of everything I heard. I just hope people know that not all Americans are crazy and war hungry. Most of the soldiers there are so young and are made to do what they are told. They are not bad people either. My condolences to every life lost during this long way.
We didnt tell you to come to our lands, we killed you till you give up from iraq
