How many American lives is Iraq worth ? |
|
Edited on Thu Nov-11-04 01:18 PM by kentuck
So far, about 1150 have sacrificed for the "freedom" of the Iraqi people which they were unwilling to fight for themselves. It was not that they did not have the weapons to fight with, they had more weapons per capita than the US. So, each day, more and more Americans are dying so Iraq can have a "free" nation. They tell us they are defending us from terrorists and violence but what are they really defending. Isn't that an appropriate question to ask on this Veterans Day?

13. Americans ILLEGALLY INVADED IRAQ. |
|
Every excuse for doing so has LONG SINCE been debunked. Iraqi citizens are fighting for their survival after YOU have destroyed their infrastructure, poisoned their land and water, MURDERED their children, lookin for a "boogey-man" of YOUR CIA-PR CREATION, in NEVER TO BE RELEASED numbers and you ask if THEIR COUNTRY is "worth" an American life? And you wonder WHY you're held in such CONTEMPT??? :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke:

bush has given many reasons for invading, each of which is a lie.
How many soldiers have died for the lie of weapons of mass destruction? How many soldiers have died for the lie of terrorist ties? How many soldiers have died for the lie of regime change? How many soldiers have died for the lie of liberating Iraqis?

5. As many as it takes to secure the oil and make the capitalists rich. |
|
Cannon fodder for $$$$ and political ambition. It's not going to work, but after the survivors are thrown out, the revisionists can claim "we could have won if....", and they can build yet another memorial to the dead who lost their lives for bullshit.

8. the irony is that Saddam is still alive and so is Bin Laden |
|
while hundreds of thousands are dead. We are leveling to the ground cities like Fallujah and destroying Mosques and of course, then, we need to rebuild them a la Halliburton. The chopped up Iraqi bodies will be bulldozed into the sand and on top of them will be built churches and missions. I have no doubt that we bomb them so that contracts can go out to rebuild them and further it is being done with our money. What was the reason for going into Fallujah? Why di we go there? Supposedly it contained a huge army of resistance fighters and like the WMDs they were not there in any great numbers.
The 1150 Americans, or whatever the number is now, are nothing to Bush, in spite of his pious appearances at Walter Reed and laying on the wreath of the unknown soldier in the biggest irony of all, being that he is a deserter, a coward and went AWOL in time of war. They have gone through great lengths to convince us that these people, desperately defending their homes and avenging their dead children, wives parents and families, are "terrorists" Bet most Americans have already passed the point of reality and do think they are terrorists due to the ministry of propagana's efforts and not resistance fighters, so we get the "mandate" to kill them all.

12. Who cares about Bin Laden? He's a lightweight. |
|
He's killed what, maybe 4000 total, between America and Africa?
Bush is into six figures, and with less reason. Bush is the real evil.

How many Americans is Iraq worth? Not the 1150 who died there, my heart goes out to their families, we shouldn't of lost one by not being there...it's very sad to think of them and those injured for life doing what they were ordered to do by the Bush administration. Now our troops are in constant combat over there everyday and on this Veteran's Day...we ask ourselves how many men and women will be sacrifice til our troops return and we are completely out of Iraq?
By the plans of military bases,an occupation for a strong hold of the middle east, and oil interests, I say we're there for a long time...this is about freedom for who and how long with this sell is the next question to ask specially on this Veteran's Day?
Good seeing you friend wish it could be in celebration instead of voter's fraud and in doubt of our very own freedom...:hi:
