U.S. fatalities in war exceed those from Sept. 11
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/14959937/
most of those deaths in a country that had nothing to do with 911. NOTHING http://www.cnn.com/2006/POLITICS/09/....ap/index.html |

OK?
More peope died of cancer, too. Let's make a post about how cancer research funding is a joke and most organizations established for it are criminal in intent. |

i'm only wondering how many dead it will take to fully avenge the death of 3000. will it be 10, 20, 50 thousand?
i think it's tragic that it's "just a number" to some people. war isn't hereditary or caused by the sun, so i do think dying in iraq is different from cancer. and i too think most of cancer research is a joke. such a small percentage of donation money and fundraising goes to actual research - the "Y me" group here in chicago is more of a socialite club with fancy expensive galas. isn't a soldier's life as important as a world trade employee's life? i think so. |

there are dictators more threatening than saddam was. the war began because supposedly there were wmd's that were going to blow us up if we didn't go there. the president linked the need for war to 911. "On September the 11th, we learned that America must confront threats before they reach our shores, whether those threats come from terrorist networks or terrorist states. I'm often asked why we're in Iraq when Saddam Hussein was not responsible for the 9/11 attacks. The answer is that the regime of Saddam Hussein was a clear threat. My administration, the Congress, and the United Nations saw the threat -- and after 9/11, Saddam's regime posed a risk that the world could not afford to take. The world is safer because Saddam Hussein is no longer in power. And now the challenge is to help the Iraqi people build a democracy that fulfills the dreams of the nearly 12 million Iraqis who came out to vote in free elections last December. " http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/relea...0060911-3.html afghanistan, saudi arabia, pakistan, are countries where terrorists came from and are coming from, and north korea and iran pose a serious threat to the u.s., and now that my cousin is entering his third tour in iraq, i'm asking "what for?" i'm sincerely asking what will be the end point of this invasion? w should have had a real plan for success, and iraq should have a functioning army by now if all of the people really wanted to protect their land in a free democratic society. when will they stand up and take charge? saddam is gone, he can't threaten people, so when does our occupation end? "we won't cut and run" isn't a plan. slogans aren't changing anything.
