Wow. If NBC says it, it must be true. Not that I necessarily disagree, but why do they think they can all of a sudden define what is and isn't a civil war? -------------------- Holy shit, pebkac, you're awesome!

yeah i agree on how they see us and how they're from a completely different set of ideals. like you said revolutions don't happen over night, but i think lots of people in iraq have seen the light and see what their lives could be like as free citizens, and now don't want to give that up (i.e. people voting for leaders, women having some rights, etc). of course there's going to be a group resistant to the change, but i have a feeling in the end iraq will be a free democracy. muslims who've assimliated american society over here are proof enough that they can still have their cake & eat it too.
as far as reasons to go to war... this has been discussed to no end and nobody's going to change their views. i don't agree or think at all that there was any motivation to go to war other than the man breaking UN regulations and us calling them on it based on the intelligence we had in hand. the vote to go to war pretty much proves that's how it went down. was bush sr. happy to see saddam go down in flames? well sure, no doubts there. was that a driving force to go to war? no. |
