Reasons why American Troops should stay in Iraq.

[Vicboy]

The troops are also killing a lot of innocent people. It goes both ways.

Not as much as the radicals would like to. And would to.

Got a source? It's not worth comparing the two.

The one big difference is that if you abide by the rules of the radicals, you're more likely to survive, as far as I see it.

I mean heck, it's not as if Iraq is better off these days.

 

[Vicboy]

Bleh, whatever, I don't know where you guys are going with these.

Our country is going to hell in a hog cart as it is, with the economy and all. If we lose that war in Iraq, we will be very tightly screwed into a deep hole like a cork on a champagne bottle. Pain in the ass to get it out, and most likely, you will get hit in the face by it when you try it.

If we lose that war in Iraq

U.S. already lost that war.

 

[Masiah]

Not really... The radical terrorists are wacked. And they would rather kill civilians for religious reasons rather than doing other things.

I remember when my nation was ruled by Japan. 1940s I think. My country was pure Roman Catholic.

The Americans retreated from my country and the Japanese, thinking that they should make other people praise Japan and their culture, started occupying her.

The Japanese started killing many of us for one reason... We didn't reject our faith.

Of course this was years ago, so don't go thinking that I endured this.

See, what if Al-Queda had control of their place? Or worse, a part of America?

Many innocent people will die because of their beliefs.

Many radicals are dying because they started shooting at the troops.

I suck at making essays... Even posts...

One big fail in your argument: one thing is defend your contry, another one is attack a country. I never said that USA shouldn't chase terrorists within their territory.

 

[Gausslander]

U.S. already lost that war.

You're wrong.

We won the war.

The occupation might not work out though.

 

[Masiah]

Define victory then.
For me, victory means when there is no enemies left to slay, because they are dead, they have surrended or they are not capable of fighting, and thus I don't see the conflict in Irak as a victory for the USA or any other faction.

 

[AirHead]

I never said that USA shouldn't chase terrorists within their territory.

The only reason America is as powerful as it is, is because we don't let the fight get to our country, if we wait until they are here, we're dead.

See...

If you guys think the war isn't over... Then Al-Queda is still a big and growing threat.

So why leave? It's just gonna make everything worst.

 

[The_wand_mirror]

There isn't any reasons for that, is there?

Otherwise the games about it would be outdated.












Nah it's not funny

War of Iraq objectives:

[X] Capture Saddam
[ ] Capture Osama Bin Laden
[ ] Find Iraquian MDW
[ ] Destroy Al-Qaeda
[ ] Stabilish peace on the region

If the objectives couldnt be completed in all those years, why do yo belive they will in the future?
US lost this war exactly like in Vietnan

Iraquian MDW?

Don't you mean Iraqi MDW?

Also, there are wars that took years. Why back out now? It's not like we are losing... They're just damn pussies.

 

[Razorbrain]

I believe nuking is a lot more harsh then electing reasonable, decent dictators to rule these countries. If we could resume the situation prior to '911' without Al Qaeda as a factor, the world will be a much better place.

Electing a Dictator? now thats something new, when did they come up with that?

anyhow, there isnt a valid reason for staying there anyway.

Stabilizing the country? That would just cause unrest with the population(if we go by the "lets choose some people to lead the country" or the "we'll stay here until you are behaving well" becouse that could take a while)

Preventing Al-Qaeda in some way? Are there any sources that the main "population" of the terrorist group known as Al-Qaeda is stationed in Iraq?

Preventing future 911-like events? Well, then this is not the right idea. Staying there longer = Creating more unrest

Oh, and one of the reasons for the current economy crisis is this war. Like many people has said before.

War costs Money

 

[PurplePoot]

Iraquian MDW?

Epic fail at the first part.

And ever heard of Vietnam?

 

[Gausslander]

heard of Vietnam?

Hey now - those 14 years of war brought us "Good Morning Vietnam", one of the best comedies to date.

So that war had a purpose.

But "World Trade Center" wasn't funny at all.

Thus if "W." isn't good this war will, in turn, be completely pointless to me.

 

[Ham Ham]

Do you wanna reasons to stop the war?

- The objectives on Iraq couldn't be completed.
- This is the second most expensive war for US.
- Iraq war can be one of the reasons of this crisis on world economy.

 

[Masiah]

Not "can be", it is.

 

[Hakeem]

Why stay in Iraq?

Because the people that make those decisions say so.

 

[Masiah]

Weren't you an anarchist?

... why the hell should we listen to authorities?

Ideologies don't die. I mean, it's not as if we can't consider world war 2 as won because there are still neo-nazi's and negationists...

Anyway, The USA won the battle (in Iraq), but they didn't win the war (against terrorism and religious extremism). In fact, Al qaeda would've never been as large as it is now without the invasion of Iraq. In fact, Al qaeda wouldn't even BE in Iraq without the USA invading it.
You could call the invasion of Afghanistan some form of self defence, but the invasion of Afghanistan is pretty random if you ask me. Oh well, unless you blame Afghanistan for accepting all those guns Americans gave them back in the days, unless you blame Afghanistan for not constructing any WMD's, unless you blame Afghanistan for being an oil producing country in the middle east. Sure, Bin Laden was a dictator, but it's not as if things look better now.

 

[Hakeem]

Weren't you an anarchist?

... why the hell should we listen to authorities?

Yes. Not listening to them is different from stopping them from doing things. The decision to go to war, and to stay at war is not one the American people can make, because the government doesn't listen.
