"If we pull out of Iraq now, future causualities on the coalition would be 0. The point is future causualities onthe Iraqi side would also be zero. I guess that's were you would like it now to end up a zero-zero tie."
The point is this a preventive war, remember?
The spin about "liberation" came after the "preventive", "violation of UN resolution", "WMD" spins.
You can speculate that Saddam will kill his own people just as I can speculate that more will die from the Coalation but NEITHER support the basis of the war that this is a matter of "national security". Thus, this the war is unjust. An unjust war increases hated of America & Americans throughout the Middle East. Do you feel safer with millions of people hating you & hundreds more vowing to revenge the death of their families? I sure as hell don't.
"How bought this scenerio. Zero US causualities and Saddam giving up the tyrancy. He'd have to take all his thugs with him - somewhere; the loyalist who will fight to the death
I'm all in favor of Saddam being ousted from power, but the Iraqis obviously do not want an American government either. The would rather fight their own battle, gain their own independece & rule over their own people - just like we did some 200+ years ago. History shows us that democracy is evolutionary, it cannot be forced upon people.
( of course so they meet the allah man )."
Do you hate Arabs?
Out,
You leftest do not want us to win. What a surprise.
Seeing how we do NOT want a war, it's obvious that our goal is NOT to have anyone win - nobody truly wins in war.
We want this unjust war to END NOW with NO MORE DEATHS.
This is not an overly-complicated concept.
