Besides, do you know what the coalition has done for Iraq ever since we arrived?

*Decreased Ethnic Violence

*Trained a stable Iraqi Police/Army that are ethical and moral unlike Saddam's Iraqi Guard.

*Eliminated Terrorists that were operating in the region for a long time and even terrorists who had been operating in other parts of the world who came to Iraq to fight the Americans.

Do you REALLY believe you have Decreased Ethnic Violence or Eliminated Terrorists??? Your dreaming. Even bush doesnt believe that. Iraq is a disaster with everyone a loser except the US " reconstuction" companies, Arms manufactures and oil consumers. And rather than Eliminated Terrorists its become a training ground for many who are pissed off at the USA to launch more attacks

I was in Iraq in 1991 and 2001 in peace camps and met and talked with Ordinary Iraqis. Sure they had some problems but nothing like it is today. I am amazed that on some level you and other marines actualy believe what you are saying and what you are being told by Bush and others.

if we did nothing, the same amount, probably more iraqi civilians would have been murdered, do you even know what the Taliban or Alqiada do to people? they take them from their homes and kill them for no reason, so if your protesting agaist us. then fine, you take our weapons and equiptment, and you go over seas to Iraq or Afganistan, i bet you wouldn't even be able to fucking last a day.

leave them the fuck alone mate, wars happen for a reason.

I did time in Iraq in 1991 and 2001 in peace camps and met and talked with Ordinary Iraqis. I served about a month each time. You probably have a better idea what the Taliban, Alqiada and US marines do to people they are told by their superiors to kill or subjugate. What Im saying is we have to find a different mechanism to resolve conflicts. One that does not cause immense suffering.

[shaman1958]

Usually the reason wars happen is their are always soldiers willing to do a presidents dirty work. How many false reasons has bush given for the iraq war. 9/11, WMDs, Alqaida, restore democracy, liberate Iraqis,elliminate terrorists, etc..What about ensuring oil supply and setting up permenent military bases in the middle east????

Protesters should be shot on site.

And when the day comes and they all start bitching for protection from the very people they crucified, the World will laugh in their pathetic faces

Wow, your video has made me realise I'm a terrible person for being a soldier. I give my contrite and sincere apology to all you left wing, soft cock, pinko, hippy wannabes who haven't got the balls to stand up for real cause and be a man so they have to take the soft option and be anti-war. No respect intended... your video has changed my life  *wankers*
