Do all you of you "war mongers" out there realize that not only would our military take serious casualties in a war with Iraq, but (as the essay points out) we would be opening ourselves up to biological and chemical attacks on OUR homeland. Is another 9/11 what you really want? Ask yourself, how will a war with Iraq make my life better? (and) Who will really benefit in a war with Iraq?

This whole "war" is wrong on so many levels. Can someone please give me one good reason why we should carry through with it?

I don't think its right to compare Hitler to Saddam.

Saddam doens't have nearly the capabilities the Germans did in the 30's and 40's.

The bottom line is that if Saddam is making weapons to kill a whole bunch of people then he needs to be stopped, correct? Even if there is going to be a lot of casualties, thats what an army is for. To protect its citizens. But only invade after the proof is there and they haev thought about this carefully with the worlds approval.

I smell another recession. No point in going to war with iraq unless you have full support and approval from your citizens and the citizens of america's allies. Britan, Canada, France and the rest of your allies must know if this war is worth it. Remember, a war will hinder the economy.

I really don't think you can compare Hitler and Saddam. Hitler tried to take over the world.....Saddam tried to.....he....uh......we gave him weapons....and he uh....wait, what DID he do again?

Besides being a complete dictator that rules with an iron fist and kills allot of people in his country for stupid reasons, he really doesn’t pose a threat to us OR the world.

Green - We don’t even know if Iraq has these weapons of mass destruction, and if they did, do you really think that they would use them? And WHY in the hell would they? What are they going to do...invade the USA? Give me a break. They would get squashed like a bug if they tried ANYTHING with ANYBODY and they know it.

THE ONLY REASON THEY WOULD USE THESE WEAPONS if they even have them WOULD BE FOR A COUNTER ATTACK ON US.

Were not talking about his own people!

Do you give a shit about the Iraqis?

Fuck no!

Is that why your going there?

I don't fuckin thiink so.

"Oh we're the USA your gassing your own people. Stop it or we'll blow it to shit."

C'mon. What makes the USA better than Germany if they decide to invade every country as they see fit?

If they can prove that saddam has an ICBM that can hit Washington DC, then fuck him and blow the shit outta him. Until then sit on your fucking hands.

Green, why do you agree with anything the republican party wants? Why do you think your country is right on all occasions? Why are you such a drone controlled by others, with no personal thought; only republican thought?Why are you such a "yes man"?
