elnino103083 ::: Favorites This is unfair. The context of the 1991 Invasion was different than the context of the 2003 Invasion. There were 17 UN resolutions between the two wars calling for disarmament. 07-08-28 02:22:56 _____________________________________________________

shyoung0801 ::: Favorites Note: The neocons don't say Cheney was wrong because of terrorists. We needed to impose massive debt and inflation on Americans, and expend solders lives to help the Iraqis. The 'terrorist' argument is as much a lie as Iraq connections to 9/11 and WMDs, and so is the idea that neocon policy does anything but hurt Americans. 07-08-19 13:17:09 _____________________________________________________
whoseurgranny ::: Favorites the people of iraq hate us.....hence why they are forming miltias to fend off the "occupiers". Granted there is one less bad person in the world, the guys running our government are no better and far more greedy. 07-08-17 20:49:25 _____________________________________________________
whoseurgranny ::: Favorites george bush has killed more iraqi people than saddam ever would have......maybe we are still looking for WMD's hahahahahahaha his halliburton and oil stocks are doing quite well right now...I think there is our REAL motive behind this war, and probably why every country in the world looks at us like the nazi's. 07-08-17 20:47:06 _____________________________________________________
ConservativeVoiceUSA ::: Favorites That was a huge mistake, leaving and not to finishing the job. The first President Bush lacked the stomach to do what had to be done. I knew it was a mistake then, I said so, and it would be a bigger one if we listen to the anti-war nuts today. 5/5 and to my favorates this one goes. 07-08-17 17:23:30 _____________________________________________________

hennypenny247 ::: Favorites With the "benefit" of hindsight 16 years later, most are saying we should have left Saddam in power. Maybe it would be better than an Islamo-fascist state, but how do we really know? The trouble with hindsight is that you can't really see the alternative path of events unfolding, only the status quo at some point in the past. 07-08-15 21:25:10 _____________________________________________________
hennypenny247 ::: Favorites Saddam Hussein ruled by absolute fear. Cabinet members were summarily executed on the smallest suspicion. He even had his two sons-in-law killed, after luring them back from Jordan, leaving his daughters widows and his grandchildren fatherless. 07-08-15 21:20:31 _____________________________________________________
hennypenny247 ::: Favorites I remember watching the retreat, Pres. Bush 41 discounted Gen. Norman Schwarzkopf's recommendation, and followed Colin Powell's (he was then Chairman of JCS and Cheney was Defense Secy.) and I remember thinking what a dreadful mistake it was. Saddam never would have been taken out by his people, and his son Qusay would have taken over when he died. 07-08-15 21:19:27 _____________________________________________________
SG1963 ::: Favorites I think it a great national shame that we did not stay and finish the job under Bush I. Our deserting the Kurds was a despicable betrayal of those defenseless people. My dad always taught, "If you don't take time to do a job right, you'd better have time to do it twice." :-( 07-08-15 18:27:00 _____________________________________________________
bookhound63 ::: Favorites Exactly SG1963, As I watched this video, my heart was filled with Rage and Shame. We deserted those people, both kurds and shia, and now the libs want us to do it AGAIN? How cold hearted can they be? 07-08-15 20:31:50 _____________________________________________________
KCtheKat ::: Favorites How dare those coalition troop leave those poor Iraqis to the demise of Saddam. We should do something to help them. We should get Saddam and charge him with war crimes against the Iraqi people. Now that President Bush is out of office, I wonder if President Clinton will do anything to help save the Iraqis? Time will only tell. 07-08-15 18:00:49 _____________________________________________________
