Saddam Hussain's Iraq got by with this crime for longer then 12 yrs after his invasion of Kuwait... but to hear the beating drums of the left say we've got no business in Iraq and this war was meaningless... and our soldiers are dying for no cause... they need to open their playbooks to the one known Fact....
Somolia was ok until things were going wrong... We Pulled Out!!!
Haiti was ok until things were going wrong... We Pulled Out!!!!
Serbia was ok and that war (peace action) brought a genocidal Thug to justice... can anyone tell me how many military ground troops America had in this battle?? most if not all our support was from the air!!! and a commanding General was stepped down during this confrontation, who later ran for high office...
But lets get back to Iraq and why we are there....
Some will argue *Still its the Oil*
Some will argue *WMD's* and we didn't find any so we've got no business being there!!!! (btw, there have been WMD's found in Iraq... just not on Missile's that could reach the USA)
Some will argue *There were no Terrorists in Iraq* and turn a blinds eye to the fact that Saddam Hussain was offering $25,000.000 to family members of suicide bombers who would kill Americans.. didn't matter if they were soldiers or not... just Americans!!!
Our President said in October of 2001... Your either with us of against us... Saddam chose the later...
the outcome is what you see today!!! Free Iraq
It beats the hell out of spending Billions to support a babysitting watch that ran for 12 yrs in country's surrounding this mad man as he still tortured and murdered 1000's of his own people and worked deals (Oil for Food) to rebuild his war machine...

as Adroomi says in many of his Posts Question All...
I'd like to know how the Left can justify Somolia,Haiti, and Serbia being alright to stop the Human Atrocities happening to the people but Iraq was and is something off limits?
