That is all true and most people know that. So why go into a war without an exit strategy and prolong it for 10 years? They knew going in it wasn't going to be over right after SH was captured. I guess they didn't expect a large part of the population to oppose our decisions when we were there. That is pretty bad logic, IMO.

I agree. We should have bombed the fuck out of Iraq, not worrying about collateral damage. But that doesn't exactly give people the warm fuzzies, and doesn't look good on CNN 24/7. So, what the next best option?

I'm referring to your posts and comments, not the letter.


The soldier who wrote the letter has a right to his opinion. He sacrificed a lot for his right to that opinion. But opinions aren't facts.

I don't disagree with that either. But due to politicians, the rules of engagement make any war impossible to win. It's fucking war. It's not puppy kisses and rainbow tea time. People die.

Also, I like puppy kisses.

I believe the Iraq war wasn't a complete mistake, but I also believe the execution of the whole thing was poorly managed.

Did anyone watch that movie on Showtime? The World Accoring to Dick CHeney. I think he feels he made no mistakes in any of his time in the office.

So, Rodney. Why don't you hold the same ill will against Obama? The war is still going on...


You also know, when all this Iraq shit started, nearly every Democrat politician supported it? And that we acted on intelligence, from all other agencies that we work with, not just the CIA intel, right? What about all the atrocities Saddam was committing against the people of Iraq? Should we have let him continue killing them? You act like Bush fabricated a bunch of shit, and that's what this is all over, and that's so far from the truth, it isn't even funny.


You are so, so, so misinformed. It's kind of sad. Bush wasn't perfect by any stretch. He made a lot of mistakes. This wasn't one of them.

I wonder when we're going to get to read letters from the Bengazi survivors, you know, the ones that have been prohibited from talking to anyone or even being identified. Or from those who helped destabilize Libya and Egypt. Oh wait, that was Obama. Nancy is all for him and his illegal and unconstitutional wars.

What an idiot.

You do realize the fights are against a non-uninformed, and therefore "civilian" population, right dumbass?

Besides that, once Ahmed is dead, and Muhammed Jr picks up his AK and runs, he was an unarmed civilian.

I wonder if they count the suicide bombers that open fire on us and then detonate themselves taking out citizens as towards our body count. I know a LOT of us got shot and blown up trying to protect Iraqis. Hell, I was rolled out because a platoon took fire and sought cover. Happened to be in a civvie house. We couldn't leave the house because they would have died for offering refuge.

He was sent to Iraq. We had no beef with Iraq. And it is clearly addressed to mr bush, and mr Cheney. It's a sad deal all around.

Actually we did. Would you like the democrat montage screaming for us to take out Saddam? Bush did the right thing and to this day still spends his time with us veterans. He also was the first president on site after the Ft. Hood shooting while Obama was throwing shout outs
