Poll question: Is an invasion force, regardless of the reasons given for it, a vile action by a barbaric govt? |

It's a new year, a new decade & we're fighting old wars in old lands, for the same old reasons.
Do you think the reasons given are not enough, and it's a barbaric action, or do you think it's the best option to the threats?

wide-scale gathering of civilians being brought together to be prepared for war, then I think those same people would say invading, and not simply defending, would be wrong.
Nearly all of the 9/11 hijackers were Saudis if I'm not mistaken. Al-Qaeda just took up shop in Afghanistan because it was so messy, like most cultures who are far from civilized and don't respect human rights.
Good question though...
