I Hate to Say I Told You So but....

If we go into Iran, there is definately going to be a draft.

Trying to keep Iraq under control seems to be stretching our military thin enough as it is, to rely on volunteers in a new separate war.
 
You gotta feel bad for the guys (and girls) in Iraq and overseas fighting these wars -- They are at the mercy of our leaders ...

My apologies to John Lennon.

Peace is not only the absence of conflict, but the establishment of justice, a justice that has been denied to millions of people around the world by those who impose themselves over them through fear and intimidation. Your state went blue. Good, that is your right. My state went red. Great, that is our right. Dont take your rights for granted. Millions of people around the world are starving for them. And I bet that millions of them are right now on their knees thanking God, Allah, or whoever they pray to that finally the Americans have a president with a political backbone, who is taking decisions that are politically unpopular but who believes that freeing people from their oppresors is the right and moral thing to do.

By the way, if you consider W an oppressor, at least you can get together with a bunch of your buddies in front of the white house, carry some signs, and let him know how you feel without fear of being run over by tanks, or unlike people who used to live under Hussein, without fear of getting your tongue cut out, your eyes gouged out, your wife raped, your children killed, and your parents imprisoned for doing telling Hussein exactly what you really felt about him.
Good to know I'm not the only Bush supporter here.

War has never brought peace indeed War cannot bring peace. If war or violence could bring peace then there would have been peace a long time ago. :2 cents:

If there are no more enemies to kill, because either they are dead or just gave up, wouldn't that be considered peace?

Peace is fragil, I undestand where you're coming from, I also would hate to see more American soldiers and Iranian civilians die, but if I were living in Iran, I would definetely be praying to Allah for the Americans to come over and get rid of the Allatollas assaholas (old 80's saying). Because of my work I once was privy to an affidavit by an Iranian man who went through hell to escape from Iran. His crime? Being the son of a soldier in the Shah's army. I really can't get into details but I know that is one guy who is right now hoping the U.S. takes care of the mullahs so he can go back home. And I bet there are a lot more people like him.

But by the way, I really don't think an invasion of Iran would be a good idea at this moment, most likely it won't happen at least not this year, depending on how negotiations go. Of course, since these mullahs in Iran don't seem to give a rat's ass about U.N. inspections, and in my most humble opinion, I guess W is probably bluffing about our troops being ready to invade tomorrow sort of to bluff them into giving up their nuclear weapons research (just don't tell the Iranians I told you this or they won't fall for it!!!!!) :D

But I do agree that North Korea is a bigger threat and I wouldn't mind seeing that ugly little North Korean troll having the same fate as Benito Mussolini, either because we invaded and took care of him or because we supported some North Korean guerrillas to do the job. Anyway, I'm already falling asleep, so I hope most of this makes sense. :sleep:

There will always be more enemies to kill but that's a discussion for another time. Anyways to each his own, I learned awhile ago not to argue politics here so I won't, talk to you later. :glugglug:
